UNSPSC 27121812: Hydraulic remote

A die or dieless remote power tool designed to crimp connectors onto a cable.

UNSPSC 27121812 Hydraulic remote is a Commodity code covering hydraulic actuators and remote-control systems that state and local governments procure for specialized equipment operations. The recent activity under this code reflects a singular cooperative purchasing framework solicitation rather than a broad procurement base. Sourcewell, the State of Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued RFP #061626 in May 2026 seeking law enforcement equipment vendors, with hydraulic remotes likely representing one component within a broader equipment package for law enforcement agencies. The solicitation structure indicates that state and local buyers source these items through cooperative purchasing vehicles that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions and public entity types, including counties, school districts, and tribal governments, rather than through individual issuing-body procurements.

The May 2026 Sourcewell RFP represents the primary recent activity tracked under this code, with a June 16, 2026 response deadline and participation from Washington counties including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima, plus public entities across the United States and Canada. The cooperative framework allows vendors to serve multiple participating entities through a single award, expanding geographic reach. No specific geographic concentration emerges from available records; the code shows episodic activity tied to cooperative purchasing cycles rather than sustained demand from a particular state or region. Business development professionals should note that opportunities under this code frequently embed hydraulic remotes within larger law enforcement or specialized equipment RFPs rather than soliciting them as standalone line items, making visibility into demand dependent on scanning broader equipment procurement notices across Sourcewell and comparable cooperative purchasing consortia.
