UNSPSC 49121504: Sleeping bags

UNSPSC 49121504 Sleeping bags is a Commodity code that in state and local practice captures consumable bedding, camping, and emergency-response supplies distributed to fire departments, law enforcement, and other operational agencies. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying sleeping bags primarily as part of larger janitorial and operational supply contracts for emergency services, rather than as standalone line-item purchases. The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners' ITB for janitorial and operational supplies for the Fire Rescue Department represents the primary use case — sleeping bags and related bedding support 24/7 station operations across 47 fire stations. Issuing bodies under this code span county purchasing offices (Hillsborough County), municipal procurement bureaus (Philadelphia), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-state law enforcement and public-safety networks (Sourcewell on behalf of Washington State counties and other jurisdictions).

The code shows recent activity concentrated in Florida and Washington State. Hillsborough County's ITB2600319, posted July 7, 2026 with a due date of July 24, 2026, covers an estimated $765,679.84 one-year consumable supplies contract for the Fire Rescue Department, with sleeping bags likely as one component line item alongside janitorial consumables. Sourcewell's RFP 061626 for law enforcement equipment, posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 deadline, establishes a cooperative contract vehicle spanning Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties in Washington and participating entities nationwide; while the RFP scopes law enforcement equipment broadly, sleeping bags and bedding supplies may be included within that framework. The City of Philadelphia's micro purchase for ice chest coolers with logos (solicitation B2627151, May 29, 2026 deadline) shows peripheral activity but does not directly relate to sleeping-bag procurement. Sleeping bags under this code remain bundled within larger consumables contracts rather than standalone specialty buys, indicating limited standalone market velocity.
