UNSPSC 31161905: Die springs

UNSPSC 31161905 Die springs, a Commodity code, sees limited recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code is a Sourcewell RFP for law enforcement equipment — a broad cooperative purchasing vehicle that does not reflect genuine demand for die springs as a standalone product line or component. The mismatch suggests this code does not currently drive meaningful state and local procurement volume, or that die springs are occasionally embedded as minor line items within larger equipment packages rather than solicited as a distinct procurement category.

Sourcewell, a State of Minnesota local government cooperative unit, posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline to establish a contracting solution for law enforcement equipment available to Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, Yakima County, and numerous other jurisdictions throughout the United States and Canada. The procurement structure permits the resulting contract(s) to serve thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities through a participating addendum mechanism with Sourcewell. No specific award value, set-aside designation, or incumbent vendor information is disclosed. Given the sparse activity and the fundamental mismatch between the code's product scope and the cooperative vehicle's broad equipment focus, pursuit under this code warrants close scrutiny of whether die springs represent a material line item within the law enforcement equipment category or whether the tagging reflects administrative classification error.
