UNSPSC 49141602: Wakeboards or kneeboards or boogieboards

UNSPSC 49141602 Wakeboards or kneeboards or boogieboards is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between the nominal product scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code involve competitive swimwear, swimming pool equipment, law enforcement gear, and age-group competitive swim team operations — none of which are water sports boards or related equipment. The mismatch suggests either misclassification by issuing bodies or that state and local procurement offices are using this code as a catch-all for aquatic and athletic supplies without regard to precise UNSPSC taxonomy. No solicitations in the recent record actually seek wakeboards, kneeboards, or boogieboards.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span school districts (Northside Independent School District in Texas), higher education (University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee), municipal governments (City of Philadelphia), and county governments (Henry County, Georgia), along with cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-jurisdiction consortiums (Sourcewell). Geographic activity appears across Texas, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Washington state. Recent opportunities include Northside ISD's October 2026 IFB for athletic equipment, supplies, and software (response due October 19, 2026); University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's July 2026 RFB for competitive swimwear and training equipment (response due July 23, 2026); and City of Philadelphia's June 2026 RFQ for a telescopic swimming pool pole under a Requirements contract not to exceed $45,000. The code's application does not support a clear procurement pattern aligned with its nominal definition.
