UNSPSC 57060100: Emergency clothing kits

This class includes items for emergency clothing kits.

UNSPSC 57060100 Emergency clothing kits is a Class code that in recent state and local procurement activity spans comprehensive disaster response and logistics services rather than clothing alone. The Town of Hilton Head Island's RFP 2026-01 for emergency standby disaster logistics illustrates the scope: rapid-response personnel deployment, warehouse staging, equipment provision including generators and portable utilities, transportation, workforce housing, water remediation, modular living facilities, and community distribution support. The solicitation requires contractors to field a full team within eight hours of notification and achieve operational status within 24 hours, with sustained daily reporting and coordination through an Emergency Operations Center. Issuing bodies under this code include municipalities and special-purpose districts managing disaster preparedness and response infrastructure. The Town of Hilton Head Island represents the kind of local government entity most likely to solicit under the code, often through cooperative arrangements with county-level emergency management (in this case Barnwell County, South Carolina).

Activity under the code remains limited in recent postings. The Hilton Head Island opportunity, posted January 27, 2026 with a March 10, 2026 RFP response deadline, stands as the primary documented state and local solicitation. South Carolina emerges as the geographic focus for current activity. Evaluation criteria weight overall proposal and scope understanding at 35 percent, quality and personnel qualifications at 30 percent, lump-sum fees at 25 percent, and client references (minimum three required) at 10 percent. The Town offers a five percent price reduction up to ten thousand dollars for certified local vendors meeting three-year residency and business-license thresholds. Contractors must carry one million dollars in general liability insurance, comply with South Carolina's employment-verification requirements, and post performance bonding upon service activation following an emergency declaration. A mandatory virtual pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for February 11, 2026, with written questions due by February 25, 2026.
