UNSPSC 42191608 Nursing controls or exit monitors is a Commodity code that describes equipment used to monitor and control nursing or facility exits, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows a significant mismatch between the nominal scope and actual buying patterns. The single recent opportunity on record is a cooperative purchasing RFP issued by Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, for law enforcement equipment — a category that does not clearly align with nursing controls or exit monitoring systems. This disconnect suggests the code may have been applied incorrectly to the solicitation, or that nursing controls and exit monitors represent only a narrow subset of law enforcement equipment being procured. The issuing structure involves Sourcewell administering the procurement on behalf of its participating entities, which include Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, plus additional jurisdictions throughout the United States and Canada. The resulting framework is intended to serve governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities.

The geographic spread centers on Washington state and Minnesota, with participation from multiple counties and broader national reach through Sourcewell's cooperative purchasing vehicle. Sourcewell RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment has a response deadline of June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time, with submission required through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal at https://proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov. Questions should be directed to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930. The procurement structure reserves the resulting contract for future utilization through participating addenda, allowing flexibility in deployment across member entities. No set-aside designations, specific budget ranges, or incumbent vendor information is identified in the available documentation. Given the apparent mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the law enforcement equipment focus of the single recent opportunity, this code shows limited clearly relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.
