UNSPSC 23241507: Sawing and cut-off machine

Sawing and cut-off machines are used to cut raw material to specified lengths or sizes.

UNSPSC 23241507 Sawing and cut-off machine (Commodity) encompasses CNC machine tools, electrical discharge machinery, and associated manufacturing equipment that state and local governments acquire for educational training, production-shop operations, and equipment maintenance. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying Wire EDM systems, CNC lathes, CNC mills, shearing machines, and replacement parts for existing production equipment—not hand saws or manual cutting tools. The issuing bodies are primarily higher-education institutions (Texas A&M University System, Texas State Technical College, Polk County Schools), state transportation and manufacturing departments (Texas Department of Transportation), and county utilities (Hillsborough County). Educational procurements emphasize comprehensive solutions including delivery, installation, instructor training, and multi-year warranties; production-shop and maintenance procurements focus on OEM replacement parts and system upgrades to keep existing equipment operational.

Recent activity clusters heavily in Texas and Florida, with secondary activity in California. Texas A&M University System posted three separate ITBs in June and July 2026 for CNC equipment, a CNC lathe and machining center, and machine shop equipment (TAMUS-ITB-26-0540, TAMUS-ITB-26-0541, TAMUS-ITB-26-0542, with responses due July 13, July 15, and July 23 respectively). Texas State Technical College issued RFP-315 for Wire EDM machines with a base contract value exceeding $100,000 and responses due March 11, 2026. Texas Department of Transportation solicited OEM replacement parts for Cincinnati Shear machines in duplicate procurements (IFB 601440000052666 and 601440000053313, due April 16 and June 2, 2026). The School Board of Polk County, Florida requested a comprehensive CNC training solution including desktop mills, desktop lathes, industrial lathes, control simulators, and tooling with responses due March 24, 2026. The State of California issued RFB-IS-26200650 for a shearing machine (due March 10, 2026) and RFB-IS-26201000 for a Water Table CNC Hypertherm Plasma Cutter (due June 11, 2026). Hillsborough County, Florida posted a sole-source notice of intent for five-year maintenance and parts supply for Komptech composting equipment at an estimated cost of $1,992,824.18.
