The scope encompasses individual hand tools and master tool sets for garage and fleet maintenance, grounds maintenance, and general-purpose operations. Issuing bodies include city procurement offices, county commissioners, state departments of transportation, and statewide purchasing divisions that aggregate demand across multiple agencies and institutions of higher education through cooperative purchasing vehicles.
