UNSPSC 30141603: Heat Shields

UNSPSC 30141603 Heat Shields is a Commodity code. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show minimal direct procurement activity. The one substantive opportunity in the most-recent block—Sourcewell RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment—is tagged to this code but does not center on heat shields; the procurement scope encompasses broad law enforcement equipment categories, and heat shields, if included at all, would represent a minor line item rather than the primary procurement driver. The other recent posting is an administrative relocation notice from Williamson County Purchasing Department and contains no procurement substance. State and local procurement under heat shields appears to be sparse or episodic, with opportunities likely embedded in larger equipment or vehicle solicitations rather than issued as standalone buys.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued the primary opportunity on behalf of its Participating Entities under Washington state cooperative-purchasing law (RCW 39.34). The RFP was posted May 12, 2026, with a response deadline of June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time, and encompasses participating counties in Washington (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) as well as public entities across the United States and Canada. The resulting contract is structured as a framework agreement available to thousands of governmental agencies, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and higher education institutions. Because this is a cooperative vehicle rather than a direct buy and heat shields are not the stated focus, the opportunity is marginal to the code's primary use case. Firms targeting heat-shield procurement should monitor standalone vehicle-procurement and fleet-maintenance RFPs from transit authorities, public works departments, and school districts, where thermal management components typically appear as specified line items or bundled equipment packages.
