UNSPSC 31152202: Hard drawn steel wire

A wire made from metal drawn at room temperature after the thermal disposition of the hard drawn steel material is made from high carbon wire rod.

UNSPSC 31152202 Hard drawn steel wire is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code is Sourcewell RFP #061626, issued May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline, which solicits Law Enforcement Equipment for a cooperative purchasing vehicle serving thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and public entities across the United States and Canada. The mismatch between the code's steel-wire commodity classification and the law-enforcement equipment scope signals either a coding error in the state and local procurement system or a narrow component application within that equipment category that does not represent the primary buying activity under this code.

The geographic scope of the Sourcewell procurement spans participating entities in Washington state (Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County) and numerous jurisdictions throughout the United States and Canada, though the code shows no other recent state and local solicitations to establish a broader pattern of activity. Vendors must submit responses through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal by June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time; no set-aside designations, incumbent vendors, or award values are identified in available documentation. The absence of additional recent opportunities under this code suggests limited current procurement velocity in hard drawn steel wire at the state and local level, making this code a lower-priority pursuit for business development professionals unless a firm has a direct supply relationship to law enforcement equipment manufacturers.
