UNSPSC 23231903: Water cooled guide

UNSPSC 23231903 Water cooled guide is a Commodity code representing specialized cooling components used in equipment maintenance and operations. State and local governments procuring under this code acquire water-cooled guiding systems, typically as components within larger law enforcement, industrial, or specialized operational equipment rather than as standalone products. The issuing bodies include state cooperative purchasing vehicles and their participating entities — counties, municipalities, and special-purpose districts — which aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions to establish framework agreements. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, routinely issues solicitations on behalf of its Participating Entities, which span Washington state counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, Yakima), numerous other jurisdictions nationwide, and public entities in Canada. The cooperative structure allows the resulting contracts to serve thousands of governmental agencies, K-12 school districts, higher education institutions, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments.

Recent activity centers on the Pacific Northwest and Midwest. Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, for Law Enforcement Equipment with a response deadline of June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time; vendors submit exclusively through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal. The solicitation does not specify set-aside designations, budget ranges, or incumbent vendors in available documentation. Contact for questions is Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930. The cooperative purchasing model through Sourcewell indicates that water-cooled guide components are sourced as part of broader law enforcement equipment solutions serving multiple state and local agencies simultaneously, though the code shows limited recent standalone commodity opportunities and appears primarily within cooperative framework agreements rather than individual jurisdictional procurements.
