UNSPSC 23153000: Holding and positioning and guiding systems and devices

UNSPSC 23153000 Holding and positioning and guiding systems and devices (Class) encompasses construction and infrastructure support equipment, structural components, and security systems that state and local governments procure to enable facility operations, site preparation, and public safety. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying concrete pad foundations and structural enclosures for equipment installation, security control systems and secure door-and-lock replacements for corrections facilities, water transmission main abandonment and utility relocation infrastructure, erosion-control retaining walls and site stabilization systems, and specialized industrial machinery components for wastewater treatment and water delivery operations. County and municipal purchasing offices dominate the issuing-body mix, with repeat activity from Orange County, Florida (multiple bridge replacement and infrastructure projects), Collier County, Florida (wastewater equipment), and Gwinnett County, Georgia (facility system replacements). The code also captures RFIs and pre-qualification solicitations from transit authorities, special-purpose districts, and technical colleges procuring equipment positioning systems and site preparation work.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, with secondary presence in Texas, Connecticut, and California. Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office Freezer #8 Replacement Project (sealed IFB, August 7, 2026 response date), involving concrete slab removal and repouring, walk-in freezer installation with evaporator and condensing units, and dry sprinkler system modification; Orange County, Florida Horizon West Trail - Phase 1A (sealed IFB, August 13, 2026 response date), encompassing a 0.668-mile multi-use trail with prestressed concrete pile-supported boardwalk sections valued at $5.657 million; and emergency bridge replacement work by Orange County for two structures valued at $6.202 million.
