UNSPSC 42261601 Bone dust collectors is a Commodity code that encompasses forensic and crime scene collection equipment sourced by law enforcement agencies. State and local procurement activity under this code reflects the actual purchase of forensic workstations, crime scene supplies, and evidence collection materials used by police departments and sheriff's offices. Issuing bodies are predominantly municipal police departments and county sheriff's offices, with occasional cooperative purchasing initiatives spanning multiple jurisdictions. The Dallas Police Department, Harris County Sheriff's Office, and Tampa Police Department represent typical buyers. The Harris County Sheriff's Office ITB illustrates the breadth of items procured: DNA and evidence collection supplies (sterile cotton swabs, DNA swab boxes, GSR collection kits), sharps containers and evidence tubes, fingerprint collection supplies, evidence bags and containers, nitrile gloves, and forensic chemicals. Vendors must meet compliance requirements including insurance minimums (commercial general liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence), local account management, and bi-monthly service coordination with law enforcement staff.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Florida, with broader cooperative reach through Sourcewell's multi-state RFP. The Dallas Police Department IFB for forensic equipment (IFSDPDB2600026, due June 26, 2026) required online submission through the City's Bonfire portal with all products new and in original packaging, FOB delivery to the Crime Scene Response facility. Harris County Sheriff's Office issued an ITB (250415, due June 8, 2026) for a one-year crime scene supplies contract beginning June 1, 2026, seeking multiple vendors on an as-needed basis with renewal options for four additional years. The Tampa Police Department posted an Intent to Single Source (26X00765, due February 9, 2026) for a FAST Forensics Custom Forensics Workstation to standardize forensic tools across the department. Sourcewell's RFP #061626 (due June 16, 2026) establishes law enforcement equipment contracting across participating Washington counties and entities nationwide, expanding the market reach for vendors willing to meet cooperative purchasing terms.
