UNSPSC 49241509: Wall climbing equipment

UNSPSC 49241509 Wall climbing equipment is a Commodity code that captures specialized climbing and safety gear procured by state and local government agencies, though recent solicitation activity under this specific code shows minimal direct relevance to the code's nominal scope. State and local governments acquiring under this code typically include counties, special-purpose districts, and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple jurisdictions. The work involves procurement of climbing equipment and associated safety apparatus for training, rescue, or facility-management applications where agencies operate indoor climbing walls or conduct high-angle rescue operations.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative purchasing unit, posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, with a June 16, 2026 response deadline, nominally tagged to law enforcement equipment and serving participating jurisdictions across Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties) and broader public-sector entities. The solicitation structure through Sourcewell's cooperative framework allows vendors to establish master contracts available to thousands of governmental agencies, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments nationwide and in Canada. However, the available solicitation documentation does not explicitly reference wall climbing equipment as a line item within this law enforcement equipment procurement, suggesting the UNSPSC code may not reflect the actual scope of current buying activity. No award value, set-aside designations, or budget range is disclosed. Proposals require submission through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal; inquiries should be directed to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930.
