UNSPSC 44111520: Surface protectors or pads

UNSPSC 44111520 Surface protectors or pads, a Commodity code, encompasses the secure storage and protective equipment that state and local governments acquire for cash handling and asset protection operations. The City of Philadelphia's April 2026 micro purchase solicitation for a Secure Cash Box typifies the scope: governments buy hardened storage containers, lockable cash boxes, and related protective enclosures for use in revenue collection, finance departments, and facilities management. Issuing bodies under this code include cities and municipal procurement offices; the recent activity shows municipal government driving the volume.

The geographic activity under this code centers on Pennsylvania, as evidenced by the Philadelphia procurement. The City of Philadelphia posted solicitation B2626785 on April 2, 2026, with a response deadline of April 7, 2026, seeking competitive quotations for a Secure Cash Box as a micro purchase capped at $43,000, automatically renewable for 365 days. The RFQ requires electronic submission through the PHLContracts platform, accepts alternate products with detailed manufacturer documentation, and welcomes LGBTQ-certified vendors to submit diversity data forms, though participation is open to all business types. The City maintains standard insurance requirements (Workers' Compensation at statutory limits, General Liability at $500,000 per occurrence, Automobile Liability at $300,000 per occurrence) and payment occurs electronically after delivery and approval.
