UNSPSC 41111527: Domestic luggage scale

A device used for measuring the weight of a piece of personal baggage. The weight is usually measured by suspending the luggage beneath the scale secured by a hook or a strap

UNSPSC 41111527 Domestic luggage scale is a Commodity code that state and local governments procure primarily as equipment components within broader law enforcement, facilities management, and utility operations—not as standalone consumer products. Recent solicitations show the code applied to scales and weighing systems used in police facilities, sanitation operations, water treatment plants, and animal control departments, typically bundled with maintenance and calibration services rather than purchased in isolation. Issuing bodies span state-level cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell, acting on behalf of Washington counties and numerous other jurisdictions nationwide), city procurement offices (Dallas), and regional transit authorities (Jacksonville Transportation Authority). The cooperative purchasing model dominates; Sourcewell's RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment, posted May 12, 2026, with response due June 16, 2026, establishes a contracting solution available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, school districts, and tribal governments across the United States and Canada.

The code shows sparse recent activity in its nominal commodity scope. Dallas's RFP BYZ2600029777, issued March 12, 2026 with proposals due April 24, 2026, solicits maintenance and calibration services for mechanical, hydrostatic, and electronic weighing systems across Sanitation Services, Dallas Police Department, Dallas Water Utilities, and Dallas Animal Services, with equipment at transfer stations, landfills, water treatment plants, police facilities, and weigh stations—framing scales as infrastructure requiring vendor expertise in NIST-traceable calibration and 24/7 service availability rather than product procurement. The Jacksonville Transportation Authority's RFP P24025 (posted February 25, 2026) covers transit stop operational maintenance with no explicit scale component. Geographic concentration appears limited to Texas and multi-state cooperative frameworks; the code does not show sustained activity across distinct state or regional markets. Vendors pursuing this code should expect procurement tied to facilities management service contracts and cooperative purchasing agreements rather than direct equipment sales.
