UNSPSC 27112813: Extension pole

UNSPSC 27112813 Extension pole is a Commodity code that covers handheld and pole-mounted equipment used in janitorial, facilities maintenance, and operational work. State and local governments procure extension poles as part of consumable supplies packages for fire rescue, public facilities, and general maintenance operations. Recent solicitations show extension poles bundled within larger janitorial and operational supplies contracts rather than as standalone line items; they represent a minor component of broader facilities maintenance purchasing, typically sourced through competitively bid supply agreements with authorized distributors.

Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners posted ITB 26-00319 on July 7, 2026 seeking consumable janitorial and operational supplies on an as-needed basis for Hillsborough County Fire Rescue Department, with bids due July 24, 2026 and an estimated contract value of $765,679.84 for one year. The City of Philadelphia posted a hand tools micro purchase (B2626809) on April 7, 2026 with quotes due April 14, 2026, capped at $43,000. Neither solicitation explicitly identifies extension poles as a line item, but both cover the product family within their broader consumable supplies or tool categories. Geographic activity centers on Florida (Hillsborough County) and Pennsylvania (Philadelphia) based on the recent visible opportunities. The code shows limited standalone procurement activity; extension poles appear marginal to procurement professionals evaluating this code, as state and local buyers typically treat them as subsidiary items within larger janitorial, maintenance, or facilities management bundles rather than as discrete purchasing categories.
