UNSPSC 49131506: Fishing weights or sinkers

UNSPSC 49131506 Fishing weights or sinkers is a Commodity code that sees little alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code — Sourcewell RFP #061626, posted May 12, 2026 with a response deadline of June 16, 2026 — solicits law enforcement equipment on behalf of a cooperative purchasing vehicle serving multiple Washington counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) and thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, school districts, and public entities across the United States and Canada. The scope covers law enforcement equipment broadly, not fishing weights or sinkers. The mismatch suggests either a miscoded opportunity or a nominal code assignment that does not reflect the actual procurement focus.

Given the absence of relevant recent opportunities, this code shows minimal activity for state and local business development purposes. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, acts as the contracting office on behalf of participating entities, and submission requires vendor account creation on the Sourcewell Procurement Portal. No set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, award values, or budget ranges are identified in the available documentation. Until opportunities more closely aligned with the commodity's nominal scope (fishing weights, sinkers, or recreational fishing equipment) appear in state and local solicitations, the code presents limited pursuit opportunity.
