UNSPSC 23241806: Multiple spindle head drilling machine

A machine comprised of multiple spindles on same head capable of multiple drilling operations.

UNSPSC 23241806 Multiple spindle head drilling machine is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure precision machine tools, principally CNC equipment, wire electrical discharge machining systems, and replacement parts for existing industrial machinery. Recent solicitations show purchasing agencies acquiring new CNC mills, lathes, and integrated machining centers to support training programs, production shops, and fabrication operations; they also solicit replacement components and maintenance services to keep installed equipment operational. The code covers both capital equipment procurement and aftermarket parts supply, with work ranging from training-focused machine tool buys to OEM component replacements for existing industrial systems.

Issuing bodies include public universities (Texas A&M University System, Texas State Technical College), county governments (Hillsborough County, Florida), state departments (Texas Department of Transportation, State of California), school districts (Polk County Schools, Florida), and cooperative purchasing consortia (Sourcewell). Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Florida, with additional solicitations from California. Representative recent opportunities include Texas A&M University System's ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0541 for machine shop, welding, and fabrication equipment (due July 15, 2026), TSTC's RFP-315 for Wire EDM machines and transformers supporting precision machining and tool-and-die training (due March 11, 2026), and Texas Department of Transportation's repeated solicitations for OEM replacement parts for Cincinnati Shear machines at the Austin Production Shop (most recently ITB 601440000053313, due June 2, 2026). Hillsborough County's sole-source notice for five-year maintenance and parts supply for Komptech composting equipment ($1,992,824.18 estimated value) demonstrates the longer-tail demand for aftermarket service and components that this code captures. Notices typically flow as ITB, RFP, or RFQ formats; submission deadlines have ranged from mid-March through late July 2026.
