UNSPSC 27112502: Pry bars

UNSPSC 27112502 Pry bars is a Commodity code representing basic hand tools and implements that state and local governments procure as consumable supplies and maintenance materials. State and local buyers source pry bars primarily through broader building materials supply agreements and janitorial/operational supply contracts rather than as standalone line items; the code captures individual pry bar specifications within larger purchasing frameworks. Issuing bodies include state departments (California Department of General Services), counties (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners), and cities (Philadelphia). Procurement occurs through ITBs, RFBs, and micro-purchase RFQs, with vendors required to meet insurance, tax compliance, and sometimes certification prerequisites such as California Certified Business Enterprise (CBE) status or diversity certifications.

Recent activity centers on California and Florida, with secondary activity in Pennsylvania. The State of California issued a three-year building materials supply agreement (RFBIS27200263, due November 13, 2026) requiring CBE certification and fixed or tiered pricing structures; Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners solicited consumable janitorial and operational supplies (ITB2600319, due July 24, 2026) with an estimated contract value of $765,679.84 for the Fire Rescue Department across 47 stations.

All recent solicitations emphasize FOB Destination pricing, workers' compensation and general liability insurance minimums, and authorization as a distributor or seller in the jurisdiction.
