UNSPSC 49221524: Fencing jacket

A metal jacket that senses electricity that athletes wear for evaluating the offensive point score in the fencing games.

UNSPSC 49221524 Fencing jacket (Commodity) covers specialized protective barriers and enclosures for sports, recreation, and facility perimeter applications. State and local governments are sourcing this code for golf course safety netting systems, athletic field fencing installations, perimeter security fencing with gates, disaster recovery fencing and repairs, and catalog-based temporary chain-link fence panels and parts. The issuing bodies include city parks departments (City of Taylor, Michigan; City of Bartow, Florida), county parks and recreation divisions (Barrow County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Sarasota County, Florida), and regional cooperative purchasing vehicles (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, Texas; Sourcewell, Minnesota). A subset of opportunities are grant-funded through FEMA Public Assistance, triggering federal compliance requirements including prevailing wage, Davis-Bacon Act wages, debarment certifications, and domestic material preference. Contractors pursuing these opportunities must carry commercial general liability insurance ($500,000 to $2 million per occurrence depending on scope), maintain state or local general contractor or fence erection licenses, enroll in E-Verify, and provide multiple project references demonstrating experience with similar-magnitude work completed within the preceding five years.
