UNSPSC 20122341: Slickline units

UNSPSC 20122341 Slickline units is a Commodity code that captures specialized equipment and services for gas extraction, refrigerant recovery, and related environmental remediation work procured by state and local governments. Recent solicitations show that the code encompasses EPA-certified refrigerant reclamation services, gas extraction and documentation from collected appliances and products, and law enforcement equipment procurement through cooperative purchasing frameworks. State and local buyers under this code include city environmental departments, county governments, and cooperative purchasing organizations serving multiple jurisdictions. The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division and Sourcewell (a Minnesota local government unit) represent the issuing-body types active in this space, though the two opportunities posted show divergent scope: one targets specialized environmental gas extraction, the other a broad law enforcement equipment cooperative contract.

Recent activity appears concentrated in the Southwest and Pacific Northwest, with the City of Tucson soliciting gas extraction services under RFP No. 240011 (response due September 19, 2024) for approximately 50 units per week at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus, requiring EPA-certified reclaimers and comprehensive gas-recovery documentation. Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 (response due June 16, 2026) for law enforcement equipment on behalf of participating entities across Washington state counties including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima, with the resulting contract to be available to thousands of governmental agencies, schools, and nonprofits nationwide through a cooperative-purchasing framework. The geographic and scope mismatch between these two recent opportunities suggests the code may see limited and varied state and local activity, with little consistent procurement concentration in a single commodity or service line.
