UNSPSC 45141610: Photographic timer

A timer for dark room that is used to adjust appropriate time to develop film and photo print.

UNSPSC 45141610 Photographic timer is a Commodity code covering specialized timing and triggering equipment used in law enforcement and forensic documentation work. The most recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows that agencies are acquiring photographic timing devices as part of broader law enforcement equipment packages. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, is the primary issuing body currently soliciting under this code on behalf of its participating entities. The cooperative structure means the resulting contract serves multiple issuing bodies — county governments (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties in Washington), school districts, tribal governments, nonprofit organizations, and higher education institutions across the United States and Canada. The scope of work reflects how state and local procurement groups purchase law enforcement support equipment through consolidated cooperative purchasing vehicles rather than individual jurisdictional buys.

Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, with proposals due by June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time, targeting vendors to establish a contracting solution for law enforcement equipment that will be available to thousands of participating governmental agencies. The solicitation covers Washington state jurisdictions and extends nationally and internationally through the cooperative framework. Vendors must submit responses exclusively through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal at https://proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov and direct questions to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930. The RFP does not publicly identify set-aside designations, specific award values, or incumbent vendors in available documentation. This represents the primary recent activity under the photographic timer code; concentration of opportunity is narrow, flowing through a single major cooperative purchasing vehicle serving a distributed base of public entities.
