UNSPSC 42312204 Suture boots and capturing devices is a Commodity code that in practice covers law enforcement restraint and tactical equipment sourced by state and local agencies through cooperative purchasing vehicles. The single recent opportunity under this code—Sourcewell RFP #061626, posted May 12, 2026 with a response deadline of June 16, 2026—frames the category as a component of broader law enforcement equipment procurement. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, is procuring on behalf of multiple participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington state, along with numerous other public jurisdictions across the United States and Canada. The resulting contract is intended to serve thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments through a cooperative purchasing framework. Responses must be submitted through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal; questions should be directed to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930.

Activity under this code remains sparse. The single identified opportunity is a Washington and Minnesota–anchored cooperative procurement that aggregates demand across multiple states and public entity types rather than a direct solicitation by an individual jurisdiction. No information about set-aside designations, incumbent contractors, or award values is present in the solicitation materials. The cooperative structure suggests potential volume, but the code shows minimal recent transaction visibility at the state and local level.
