UNSPSC 23153017: Alignment jig

UNSPSC 23153017 Alignment jig is a Commodity code that covers precision fixtures and tooling used to position, orient, and hold components during assembly, manufacturing, or quality-control operations. State and local governments procure alignment jigs primarily through maintenance and facilities operations for equipment repair, vehicle service, and industrial plant upkeep, as well as through public utility operations, transit maintenance shops, and equipment-intensive departments such as public works and fleet services. The purchasing bodies soliciting under this code span counties, municipalities, state transportation agencies, transit authorities, and cooperative purchasing vehicles that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions.

Recent state and local contract opportunities under this code are sparse. The most prominent recent activity appears in a Sourcewell cooperative purchasing RFP #061626 (Law Enforcement Equipment, posted May 12, 2026, response due June 16, 2026) issued on behalf of the State of Minnesota in coordination with Washington state and participating counties including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima. However, the primary scope of that solicitation targets law enforcement equipment rather than alignment jigs, suggesting a tagging mismatch rather than active procurement demand under this code. A secondary notice from Williamson County Purchasing Department (Texas, July 2026) announces an administrative relocation and contains no procurement opportunity. The code shows little relevant recent activity, and the available records do not support identification of geographic concentration or issuing-body patterns specific to alignment-jig procurement.
