UNSPSC 20121614: Bi-centre drill bit

An integral bit and eccentric reamer used to simultaneously drill and under ream the hole.

UNSPSC 20121614 Bi-centre drill bit is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it show no procurement activity for drill bits or drilling equipment. Instead, the code tags two unrelated solicitations: one for EPA-certified refrigerant reclamation services and one for law enforcement equipment through a cooperative purchasing vehicle. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being bought suggests this code sees little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division posted an RFP (No. 240011, due September 19, 2024) for Gas Extraction and Removal services at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus, seeking an EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimer to extract gases from approximately 50 units per week with documentation of destruction or recycling. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing entity, posted an RFP (No. 061626, due June 16, 2026) on behalf of participating counties in Washington state and thousands of public entities nationwide for a law enforcement equipment contracting solution available through a participating addendum. Neither opportunity aligns with bi-centre drill bit procurement, and no additional opportunities under this code appear in the source. Business development professionals should confirm whether this code has been misapplied by the issuing bodies or whether procurement under the code has shifted materially away from drilling consumables.
