UNSPSC 31171610: Cold headed bushing

Flange or other bushing formed by cold heading.

UNSPSC 31171610 Cold headed bushing is a Commodity code that encompasses fasteners and metal components used in equipment assembly and maintenance. State and local governments procure cold headed bushings primarily as component parts embedded in larger systems — in this case, law enforcement equipment and related apparatus. The code sees solicitation activity across cooperative purchasing vehicles and traditional procurement offices serving counties, special districts, and multi-jurisdictional public entities.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, to establish a blanket contracting solution for law enforcement equipment on behalf of participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, along with thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments throughout the United States and Canada. The RFP closed June 16, 2026. The resulting contract framework will allow participating entities to purchase law enforcement equipment—and the component fasteners and bushings within them—through standardized terms negotiated at the cooperative level. Vendors must submit proposals through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal at proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov; solicitation documents and questions are handled exclusively through that portal, with general inquiries directed to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930. The solicitation does not identify specific set-aside designations, award values, or budget ranges in available documentation.
