About UNSPSC 49221531

UNSPSC 49221531 Swinging pole is a Commodity code used by state and local governments to procure competitive swimming equipment and pool operational supplies. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show minimal direct alignment with the nominal taxonomy category; most tagged opportunities center on competitive swimwear, athletic equipment and apparel catalogs, pool maintenance and repair services, and facility management contracts rather than swinging poles specifically. University athletic departments, county parks and recreation agencies, and school districts constitute the primary issuing bodies, with purchasing cooperatives and joint procurements also present.

Geographic activity is concentrated in the Southeast and Midwest. The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee issued an RFB (2027UWMIL01382RFB, due July 23, 2026) for competitive swimwear and training equipment for its NCAA Division I swimming program; the City of Philadelphia posted a micro-purchase RFQ for a telescopic swimming pool pole (B2727391, due June 30, 2026) with a $45,000 contract ceiling; and Collier County, Florida solicited bids for preventative maintenance, repairs, and replacement services across nine aquatic facilities (258617, due April 6, 2026), historically spending approximately $500,000 annually on pool operations. Henry County, Georgia issued RFQ 26-38 (due June 2, 2026) for full-service age group competitive swim team operations at its aquatic center with fixed hourly rates ranging from $20 to $60 per hour depending on lane configuration. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (ESC7) posted an RFP for athletic equipment and supplies catalog discounts (ATH2628, due March 26, 2026) with estimated two-year expenditures of $13.5 million across member organizations. The code shows scattered activity with no clear concentration in swinging-pole-specific procurements; vendors targeting this taxonomy should monitor pool facility maintenance, competitive swim program support, and aquatic equipment supply opportunities rather than expecting high volume in the pole category alone.
