UNSPSC 49161617: Tether poles

UNSPSC 49161617 Tether poles, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity under its nominal scope. The source contains eight state and local contract opportunities tagged with this code between January and July 2026, but only one directly addresses the equipment type: the remaining seven opportunities involve recreational and athletic supplies procurement including tennis equipment, pickleball supplies, physical education equipment, and early childhood instructional resources — scopes that do not align with tether poles as structural or sporting-goods components. The one opportunity potentially relevant to the code's scope is Donna Independent School District's March 2026 catalog bid for tennis equipment and supplies, which listed nets, wind screens, and court supplies among its line items, though the solicitation does not explicitly name tether poles or pole-related equipment.

Issuing bodies span school districts, a state university system, municipal recreation departments, and a specialized early-childhood services organization across Texas, Florida, Georgia, and the District of Columbia. The District of Columbia appears most frequently, posting five supply-procurement opportunities (pickleball supplies, various supplies, roving leader supplies, community recreation supplies, and unspecified HA0 line items) between January and July 2026, all restricted to CBE and SBE vendors. Beyond the District, activity is scattered: Donna ISD (Texas) issued an RFQ on March 21, 2026 due April 8, 2026 for tennis equipment catalog pricing; Marion County Schools (Florida) posted a term-contract bid on February 2, 2026 due January 14, 2026 for physical education supplies; and Albany State University (Georgia) issued an eRFQ on March 6, 2026 due March 26, 2026 for athletic equipment and customization services. The code does not show substantial or repeat procurement of tether poles specifically, and the opportunities listed appear to be artifacts of classification rather than true category alignment.
