UNSPSC 44103601: Cassette or tape shredders

UNSPSC 44103601 Cassette or tape shredders is a Commodity code tracking state and local procurement of document-destruction and records-management equipment, though recent opportunities under the code show a mix of direct shredder procurement and maintenance services. State and local issuing bodies pursuing this code include city procurement departments and cooperative purchasing consortia serving multi-jurisdictional networks. The City of Philadelphia Procurement Department and Sourcewell (a Minnesota-based cooperative serving participating entities across the United States and Canada) have both posted solicitations under or aligned with this code in recent months, reflecting both direct municipal acquisition and aggregated cooperative-purchasing models for law enforcement and administrative support equipment.

Recent opportunities span the Pacific Northwest and mid-Atlantic regions. The City of Philadelphia Procurement Department issued a micro purchase RFQ for shredder maintenance (Solicitation B2726980) with a response deadline of May 21, 2026, specifying a Local Business Enterprise preference for certified LBEs and requiring general liability insurance of $500,000 per occurrence. Sourcewell posted an RFP (Solicitation 061626) for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, with a response deadline of June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time; while the RFP is broadly scoped, it establishes a cooperative contracting vehicle available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments. Both opportunities require electronic submission through the issuing body's portal and do not specify estimated contract values or set-aside designations beyond LBE preference in Philadelphia.
