UNSPSC 20122900: Surface data logging equipment

UNSPSC 20122900 Surface data logging equipment is a Class code that in practice covers environmental monitoring and gas extraction services for state and local facilities management. Recent solicitations show municipal governments purchasing EPA-certified refrigerant recovery and gas extraction services from specialized contractors. The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division issued RFP 240011 seeking an EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimer to extract gases from approximately 50 units per week at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus, with extraction required at minimum every two weeks and comprehensive documentation of gas destruction or recycling. Issuing bodies under this code include city environmental divisions and municipal sustainability programs managing facility waste streams and regulatory compliance.

Activity appears concentrated in the Southwest, with the City of Tucson the identifiable recent buyer. The Tucson RFP 240011 carries a response deadline of September 19, 2024, with a pre-submittal conference scheduled for March 19, 2024, via Microsoft Teams. The initial contract term runs one year with potential for up to four additional one-year renewals. The procurement references Federal Transit Administration terms and conditions, suggesting DBE participation provisions. A second solicitation record (Sourcewell RFP 061626 for law enforcement equipment) appears tagged to this code but represents an unrelated commodity area and does not reflect typical activity under surface data logging equipment.
