UNSPSC 46182305: Self retracting lanyard

UNSPSC 46182305 Self retracting lanyard, a Commodity code, covers fall-protection equipment — specifically self-retracting lifelines and associated davit systems, winches, and confined-space entry apparatus — that state and local water utilities, public works departments, and specialized service districts procure for worker safety during elevated or confined-space operations. Recent solicitations show purchasing agencies acquiring pre-configured systems with winches and davit arms, standalone self-retracting lifelines compliant with ANSI Z359 standards, and integrated fall-arrest kits bundled with training and inspection services. State and local governments soliciting under this code include municipal water departments (Charlotte Water in North Carolina, City of Phoenix Water Services Department, Ocala Electric Utility in Florida, Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources in Georgia) and specialized utility districts; water and wastewater treatment plants and lift stations are the primary performance sites.

Recent activity spans the Southeast and Southwest with concentration in Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, and Arizona. Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources issued an RFQ for fall protection equipment (quotations due August 20, 2026) specifying two confined-space davit systems with self-retracting lifelines meeting ANSI Z359.14-2014, two portable davit bases, and one vehicle hitch-mount base for delivery to its Lanier Filter Plant in Buford, Georgia. The City of Phoenix issued IFB-27-0458 (offers due October 22, 2026) for anchor-point inspections, testing, and repair services under its DBE-N program, with scope including 1,100 anchor points at the 91st Avenue wastewater treatment plant in Tolleson and smaller systems at other Phoenix-area facilities; the five-year contract requires OSHA 1910.140 compliance and ANSI Z359 certification. Charlotte Water (City of Charlotte) issued ITB FY27ITB02 (proposals due October 20, 2026) for confined-space entry equipment, initial staff training, and biannual inspection services across Mecklenburg County and Cleveland Town, North Carolina.
