UNSPSC 44111606: Cash box trays

UNSPSC 44111606 Cash box trays is a Commodity code that covers physical secure storage containers and related organizational equipment for currency, valuables, and sensitive materials. State and local governments procure cash boxes primarily for municipal finance, law enforcement, court operations, and administrative cash-handling functions where secure temporary storage and transport of currency or high-value items is required. The City of Philadelphia's April 2026 micro purchase for a Secure Cash Box illustrates the typical scope: a containerized solution meeting security and organizational specifications for departmental use. Issuing bodies include city finance and administration departments, law enforcement agencies, courts, and municipal utilities, with purchase authority often centralized at the city or county procurement level. Individual purchases typically remain modest in scope and dollar value, with award determinations based on responsiveness to brand, model, and security specifications rather than complex performance criteria.

Recent activity concentrates in major urban centers with active municipal procurement programs. The City of Philadelphia's April 2026 micro purchase (solicitation B2626785, due April 7, 2026) sought quotations for a Secure Cash Box with a procurement cap of $43,000, awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder through the PHLContracts electronic platform. The procurement required executed Consent and Authorization Agreements on file before bid closing and included standard municipal requirements: Workers' Compensation insurance at statutory limits, General Liability at $500,000 per occurrence, and Automobile Liability at $300,000 per occurrence. Vendors offering alternate products were required to submit brand name, model number, and detailed manufacturer documentation; failure to provide this information resulted in bid invalidation. The contract term ran automatically for 365 days from the effective date, with quotations valid for 60 days from submission. No set-asides by business size or organization type applied, though LGBTQ certification through third-party verification was encouraged for diversity tracking purposes.
