UNSPSC 42281513 Sterilization nameplates is a Commodity code that captures equipment identification and labeling for law enforcement and public-safety applications, based on recent state and local procurement activity. The code sees demand from cooperative purchasing vehicles and state/local jurisdictions procuring law enforcement equipment and related identification systems. Sterilization nameplates—durable, sanitizable labels and identification plates—fit within broader law enforcement equipment procurement and are sourced as part of multi-item solicitations rather than as standalone line items.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 (response due June 16, 2026) to establish a contracting solution for law enforcement equipment available to participating entities across Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties), and to other governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and public entities throughout the United States and Canada. The cooperative procurement structure allows selected vendors to supply equipment across a broad spectrum of public-sector organizations. Submissions were due through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal (https://proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov) with no set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, or specific award values identified in available documentation. Inquiries were directed to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930. This represents a significant initiative to streamline procurement processes and leverage collective buying power across multiple jurisdictions.
