UNSPSC 23153608: Electronic tube marking machine

A machine that uses electrically generated heat transfer to mark tube material.

UNSPSC 23153608 Electronic tube marking machine is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its nominal scope. The two opportunities posted since early March 2026 show only tangential connection to the code's defined product line. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 (response due June 16, 2026) to establish a contracting solution for law enforcement equipment available to thousands of governmental agencies, school districts, and public entities across multiple states and Canada; the scope encompasses equipment broadly and does not specifically reference electronic tube marking machines or related marking equipment. The University of Wisconsin Stevens Point issued an IFB (Solicitation 2026-STPALL-01275-RFB, posted March 19, 2026, due April 16, 2026) for the purchase and installation of a false bottom and automatic drain valve for two stock tanks in its pilot paper machine laboratory — a materials-handling upgrade unrelated to electronic marking devices.

The code shows activity across Minnesota (through Sourcewell's multi-state cooperative framework) and Wisconsin, though the opportunities are misaligned with the electronic tube marking machine category. Sourcewell's law enforcement equipment RFP reaches Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties in Washington, plus numerous jurisdictions nationwide, but does not flag marking equipment as a procurement focus. The University of Wisconsin Stevens Point is a higher-education buyer, not a typical issuer for this commodity class. No dollar values, set-asides, incumbent vendors, or award ceilings appear in the posted materials. The code warrants continued monitoring for more directly relevant opportunities, as current postings suggest light or misdirected activity under this UNSPSC designation.
