UNSPSC 31152206: Coated steel wire

A type of steel wire coated or plated with other metals, such as zinc or aluminum.

UNSPSC 31152206 Coated steel wire is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope in state and local procurement. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code is Sourcewell RFP #061626, posted May 12, 2026 with a response date of June 16, 2026, which solicits law enforcement equipment rather than coated steel wire or wire products. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the opportunity record or a very narrow application of coated steel wire within law enforcement equipment procurement that the available documentation does not clarify. State and local issuing bodies do not appear to be soliciting coated steel wire as a standalone commodity or as a visible line item in recent cooperative or direct procurements.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, is the primary issuing body for the one recent opportunity on record, acting on behalf of participating entities across Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties) and numerous other public jurisdictions throughout the United States and Canada. The cooperative structure allows the resulting contract to serve thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities. No geographic concentration emerges from the source material, and no representative opportunities specific to coated steel wire procurement are identified. Vendors evaluating this code should confirm whether state and local markets are actively sourcing coated steel wire through direct RFPs, IFBs, or cooperative vehicles before committing development resources.
