UNSPSC 23153036: Keeper plates

UNSPSC 23153036 Keeper plates, a Commodity code, encompasses hardware components used in a narrow range of state and local infrastructure and facility projects. Recent solicitations tagged under this code show minimal alignment with keeper plates as a distinct product line; instead, the posted opportunities reflect broader construction, equipment, and facility-upgrade work where keeper plates may constitute a small component or specification within larger scopes. The issuing bodies include county governments (Gwinnett County, Orange County, Collier County, Indian River County in Florida; Hancock County and DeKalb County in Georgia), municipalities (City of Arlington in Texas, City of Bartow in Florida, Town of Waterford in Connecticut, City of Brownsville in Texas, City of Cibolo in Texas), and specialized transit and college systems (Monterey-Salinas Transit District, Technical College System of Georgia, School Board of Seminole County). Orange County, Florida appears as a repeat buyer with multiple infrastructure and facility upgrade projects during this period. The code shows activity across Florida (particularly in Orange and Collier counties), Texas (Arlington, Brownsville, Cibolo), Georgia (Hancock, DeKalb), and Connecticut (Waterford).

Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County's Sheriff's Office Freezer #8 Replacement Project (BL109-26, IFB with response due August 7, 2026), a sealed-bid solicitation encompassing walk-in freezer installation, concrete slab work, and building systems; Orange County's Horizon West Trail – Phase 1A (Y26-754, sealed bid, response due August 13, 2026), a $5,657,322 multi-use trail and utility project incorporating boardwalk and infrastructure work; and Indian River County's Courthouse Generator replacement (ITB 2026-018, response due May 26, 2026), a whole-building emergency power installation with structural pad and enclosure. None of these solicitations explicitly identifies keeper plates as a primary deliverable or specification line item, suggesting the code assignment may reflect incidental hardware within broader construction contracts rather than targeted procurement of this commodity. State and local procurement activity under this code appears thin relative to the breadth of projects posted, indicating either minimal recent demand for keeper plates as a standalone purchase or potential misalignment between code assignment and actual procurement intent.
