UNSPSC 27111815 Combination square is a Commodity code that in recent state and local activity covers tape measures and related hand measuring tools for general municipal operations. The City of Philadelphia has posted two micro-purchase RFQs under this code in October 2026, both soliciting tape measures with $45,000 pricing ceilings for the fiscal year 2027 contract period (July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027). Issuing bodies are typically municipal purchasing offices and departments; the recent record shows Philadelphia as the active buyer. Awards are made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the option to award as a whole or by line item at the buyer's discretion. Vendors must quote all line items to be eligible for consideration. The City requires execution of a Consent and Authorization Agreement prior to bid closing, submission through the PHLContracts portal, workers' compensation insurance at statutory limits, general liability coverage with a $500,000 per occurrence minimum, and automobile liability at $300,000 per occurrence. Quotations remain valid for 60 days from submission.

Recent activity concentrates in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with two postings in a ten-day span in early October 2026—RFQ B2728094 (due October 5, 2026) and RFQ B2728210 (due October 16, 2026). The source provides no evidence of activity in other states or regions. Both solicitations include an optional LGBTQ Applicant Data Form to support diversity, equity, and inclusion procurement goals; vendors may self-identify as LGBTQ-owned or report MBE, WBE, DSBE, or DBE certifications. All prices must be quoted net and exclusive of taxes, and vendors must maintain current tax compliance with the City and cannot be indebted for delinquent taxes. Submission of the LGBTQ form is voluntary and does not affect eligibility for award.
