UNSPSC 20123001: Multilateral casing

UNSPSC 20123001 Multilateral casing is a Commodity code that in recent state and local solicitations covers refrigerant and gas extraction services from appliances and equipment—not physical casing materials. The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division issued RFP 240011 for EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimer services 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 required. Contractors must hold EPA certification, employ certified technicians, use EPA-approved recovery equipment, and maintain detailed records. The initial contract term is one year with up to four additional one-year renewals. A second recent opportunity—Sourcewell RFP 061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment—appears unrelated to the code's stated scope and does not represent typical activity under this Commodity code.

The recent refrigerant extraction opportunity is situated in Pima County, Arizona, under the City of Tucson. The RFP references Federal Transit Administration Terms and Conditions with provisions for disadvantaged business enterprise participation, though specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed. The pricing structure includes line items for removing Freon, mixed gas, and refrigerant with hourly labor rates for general operating hours, after-hours work, and holiday rates; no incumbent vendors are named. The code shows limited recent state and local activity aligned with its nominal scope—environmental compliance and refrigerant reclamation represent a narrow segment of state and local procurement, with municipal sustainability and facility management divisions as the primary issuing bodies.
