UNSPSC 42281704 Instrument cleaners or detergents is a Commodity code covering cleaning and maintenance products for specialized equipment, but state and local procurement under this code shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity in the dataset — Sourcewell RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment, posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline — is tagged to this code despite focusing on law enforcement equipment procurement broadly rather than on cleaning agents or detergents specifically. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or an incidental inclusion of cleaning products as a minor component within a larger law enforcement supply initiative.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued the RFP on behalf of participating entities including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties in Washington state, with participation available to governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and public entities throughout the United States and Canada. Proposals were to be submitted through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal by June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time, with no set-aside designations, award values, or budget ranges disclosed in the available documentation. The code does not show meaningful recent state and local procurement activity specifically for instrument cleaners or detergents as a standalone service or product line.
