UNSPSC 55121502: Security tags

UNSPSC 55121502 Security tags is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement reflects demand for airport baggage tags, thermal boarding pass stock, and blank automated ticket and boarding pass (ATB) paper, as well as secure key systems and Knox Box–compatible access infrastructure for fire and emergency services. State and local governments buy these items to support airport operations, emergency-response coordination, and fire-code compliance across commercial properties. Issuing bodies include county airports departments, county fire rescue agencies, and other municipal departments managing passenger or emergency-access infrastructure. The work is typically straightforward product procurement with standard contract terms, including multi-year initial periods with optional extensions and cooperative purchasing arrangements that allow other eligible governmental and non-profit entities to leverage awarded contracts.

Recent activity shows representation from California and Florida. Sacramento County Department of Airports (operating through the Sacramento County Procurement Alliance cooperative purchasing program) posted RFP 2026RFP0016 on September 22, 2026, for bag tags, thermal boarding pass stock, and blank ATB stock with a response due May 21, 2026, expecting one or multiple contract awards on a line-item basis with an initial two-year term and three optional one-year extensions. Marion County Fire Rescue in Florida posted sole-source procurement 04SS-003 on May 7, 2026, for Knox Box–compatible Key Secure Systems to serve over 300 commercial properties countywide, with proposals due May 14, 2026. The Marion County procurement reflects the code's secondary use for security-access infrastructure tied to emergency-services operations.
