UNSPSC 45141502: Fixative

UNSPSC 45141502 Fixative (Commodity) reflects products used in law enforcement evidence preservation and forensic work, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code is sparse. The single recent solicitation tracked under this code is Sourcewell RFP #061626, issued on behalf of a cooperative purchasing vehicle spanning Washington counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, Yakima) and numerous other jurisdictions across the United States and Canada, which solicited Law Enforcement Equipment broadly rather than fixatives specifically. This mismatch suggests the code may be underutilized or misaligned with how state and local buyers classify forensic and evidence-handling supplies in their procurement systems.

Sourcewell, a State of Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, with a response deadline of June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time. The RFP is structured to establish a framework agreement available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and public entities. Submissions are required through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal; no specific budget, set-aside designation, award value, or incumbent vendor information is disclosed in available documentation. The cooperative purchasing structure positions selected vendors to serve multiple jurisdictions under standardized terms, but the limited recent activity under the specific fixative code suggests minimal current demand or that state and local buyers are routing similar procurements under different UNSPSC classifications.
