UNSPSC 23181605: Grating machinery

UNSPSC 23181605 Grating machinery (Commodity) covers multi-shaft shredding systems that state and local governments procure for document and material destruction at records centers and similar facilities. The Michigan Department of Technology, Management, and Budget–Financial Services is the primary buyer visible in recent activity, soliciting 40–60 horsepower low-speed, high-torque shredding units capable of processing paper documents, plastics, textiles, uniforms, Kevlar, ballistic materials, and limited metal items to destruction or non-reconstructible particle sizes. State procurement offices issue these RFQs when records centers require equipment replacement or expansion; the work is operational procurement (equipment purchase and installation) rather than construction or maintenance contracting.

Michigan dominates the recent opportunity set, with two parallel RFQs (RFP1712600000021772 and RFP1712600000021771) issued by the state's Financial Services office with proposals due July 7, 2026 at 3:00 PM Eastern Time. Both solicitations call for electronic submission through the Michigan SIGMA VSS system, with written questions due June 16, 2026. Vendors must provide technical specifications, electrical requirements, compatible screen sizes and pricing, installation and on-site training quotes, warranty and maintenance documentation, and tariff information; the awarded vendor must provide Certificate of Liability insurance and register for electronic funds transfer payment. Delivery is FOB Destination, payment is Net 45 days post-invoice, and price quotes remain valid for 60 calendar days from the due date. The source reflects no activity from other states or local jurisdictions under this code at present.
