UNSPSC 25111926: Sail battens

UNSPSC 25111926 Sail battens is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Sourcewell RFP #061626, posted May 12, 2026, with a response deadline of June 16, 2026—seeks to establish a cooperative purchasing contract for law enforcement equipment to serve thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K–12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities across the United States and Canada. The scope encompasses general law enforcement equipment solutions, not sail battens or marine rigging components. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the procurement system or an artifact of broader equipment categorization that does not reflect the actual commodity being solicited.

Sourcewell, a State of Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued the RFP on behalf of participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County (Washington state) and numerous other jurisdictions nationwide. The cooperative purchasing model allows selected vendors to supply law enforcement equipment under standardized terms to a broad public-sector market. Responses were due June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal. No set-aside designations, budget ranges, or award values were disclosed in the available documentation. This code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope; prospective vendors should verify whether sail battens and marine components are genuinely being procured under this UNSPSC number in state and local solicitations or whether the tagging represents a system error.
