UNSPSC 44101718: Infrared adapters

UNSPSC 44101718 Infrared adapters (Commodity) shows minimal alignment between the code's nominal scope and recent state and local solicitation activity. The two most recent opportunities posted under this code—a catalog discount bid for copy machines issued by Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative and a law enforcement equipment RFP issued by Sourcewell on behalf of multiple Washington counties and other jurisdictions—bear no meaningful connection to infrared adapters. The code appears to be misapplied or inactive for its intended product category in current state and local procurement.

Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative issued the copy machines solicitation (CM2628, IFB, due Sep 29, 2026) with an estimated total expenditure of $9,378,324 over a two-year contract term running October 15, 2026 through October 15, 2028. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued the law enforcement equipment RFP (#061626, due Jun 16, 2026) on behalf of Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, Yakima County, and other jurisdictions throughout the United States and Canada, establishing a cooperative purchasing framework for use across thousands of governmental agencies, K-12 school districts, higher education institutions, and nonprofit organizations. The geographic concentration around Washington state and Minnesota reflects the issuing cooperatives' operational bases rather than targeted infrared adapter procurement. No recent activity demonstrates actual demand for infrared adapters under this code in state and local procurement.
