UNSPSC 20122308: Slickline chemical cutters

UNSPSC 20122308 Slickline chemical cutters is a Commodity code showing minimal direct alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code is Sourcewell RFP #061626, a cooperative purchasing vehicle issued by Sourcewell (a State of Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative) on behalf of participating entities across Washington State counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) and numerous other U.S. and Canadian jurisdictions. The solicitation seeks to establish a contracting solution for law enforcement equipment broadly construed, with the contract available to governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities. The scope of "law enforcement equipment" in the RFP does not align with the code's nominal product line (slickline chemical cutters, typically used in oil and gas well intervention). No set-aside designations, incumbent vendors, or specific dollar values appear in the available documentation.

The opportunity closed June 16, 2026, with submission required through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal. No other recent state and local opportunities were identified under this code. The mismatch between the code label and the actual procurement scope suggests either a classification error in the source data or that slickline chemical cutters are being purchased in minimal volumes through state and local channels under alternative codes. A firm evaluating this code should verify whether meaningful market activity exists in state and local procurement for slickline chemical cutters under other UNSPSC classifications before committing pursuit resources.
