UNSPSC 23101503: Broaching machines

UNSPSC 23101503 Broaching machines, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The one recent opportunity tagged to this code — Sourcewell RFP #061626, posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline — is a cooperative purchasing vehicle for law enforcement equipment serving multiple Washington counties, school districts, higher education institutions, and public entities across the United States and Canada. The scope of that solicitation covers general law enforcement equipment rather than broaching machines or machine tools, indicating a mismatch between the code assignment and the work actually being solicited. Broaching machines are precision metalworking tools used for removing material in manufacturing environments; they do not align with typical law enforcement procurement categories and do not appear in the stated objectives or anticipated use cases for the Sourcewell contract.

State and local procurement activity under this Commodity code does not currently surface in the available recent-opportunity dataset. The single tagged record reflects a cooperative purchasing framework established through Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit service cooperative, but the underlying work scope diverges materially from the machine-tool category the code nominally represents. Vendors pursuing opportunities in precision metalworking equipment or broaching-machine sales should monitor state manufacturing facilities, state vocational and technical education institutions, and state or local equipment-repair shops, as those are the likely state and local buyers for this Commodity classification; however, current visible solicitation activity does not support active pursuit under this code.
