UNSPSC 56101714: Data binder racks

UNSPSC 56101714 Data binder racks (Commodity) covers storage and organizational equipment that state and local governments procure for warehouse, facility, and operational use. Recent solicitations show the code capturing purchases of pallet racks, metal shelving, and warehouse storage frames — industrial-grade fixed or modular systems used to organize inventory, equipment, and materials in municipal warehouses and support facilities. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include city procurement departments and, in at least one case, a state cooperative purchasing vehicle representing multiple counties and jurisdictions. The City of Philadelphia has posted multiple micro-purchase quotes for pallet rack framing and metal racks on consecutive occasions, indicating repeat operational demand within a single municipality.

Recent activity centers in Arizona, Pennsylvania, and through the multi-state Sourcewell cooperative. The City of Philadelphia issued an IFB for pallet rack framing (Solicitation B2727634) with a response date of August 11, 2026, on a 365-day requirements contract capped at $45,000; a preceding micro purchase for a metal rack (Solicitation B2627184) closed May 27, 2026 at $43,000 threshold. The City of Phoenix solicited sealed offers for warehouse shelving (IFB 260251) with an initial deadline of June 1, 2026, later extended to October 18, 2022, under a five-year contract commencing August 1, 2026. Sourcewell issued an RFP (#061626) on behalf of Washington counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, Yakima) and other participating entities nationwide, with proposals due June 16, 2026, to establish a cooperative law-enforcement-equipment contracting vehicle; this solicitation diverges from the code's core warehouse-storage scope and may reflect a misclassification in the source data.
