UNSPSC 23242120: Machine table base

A table for metal working machines designed for easy setting of location of X-axis and Y axis for precision work, such as boring, drilling, grinding and milling.

UNSPSC 23242120 Machine table base is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of manufacturing equipment and replacement parts—particularly CNC machinery, machine shop equipment, and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) components for industrial machine tools. Recent solicitations show this code encompasses not just standalone machine bases but integrated procurements of complete CNC systems, electrical discharge machines, shearing machines, welding and fabrication equipment, and proprietary replacement parts for existing industrial installations. The issuing bodies are predominantly higher-education institutions (Texas A&M University System, Texas State Technical College, the School Board of Polk County), state transportation departments (Texas Department of Transportation), state purchasing offices (State of California), county government (Hillsborough County), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell on behalf of multiple Washington counties). Educational procurement dominates recent activity, particularly CNC training equipment bundles tied to precision machining, tool-and-die, and maintenance technology programs.

Activity concentrates in Texas and California, with emerging activity in Florida and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include Texas A&M University System's ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0542 for a CNC lathe and machining center (bids due July 23, 2026), ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0541 for machine shop, welding, and fabrication equipment (bids due July 15, 2026), and ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0540 for CNC equipment (bids due July 13, 2026)—all submitted through the AggieBid platform. Texas Department of Transportation has issued multiple IFBs for Cincinnati Shear machine OEM replacement parts (23 line items of bearings, seals, clutches, fasteners, and assemblies with firm fixed-price, F.O.B. destination delivery to Austin). Texas State Technical College's RFP-315 seeks Wire EDM machines and transformers for precision machining programs with a base term of one year and four optional renewals, valued above $100,000 and requiring a subcontracting plan. Hillsborough County's sole-source procurement with Powerscreen of Florida for five-year maintenance of Komptech composting equipment is valued at $1,992,824.18 and demonstrates the code's coverage of proprietary parts and service contracts tied to equipment already in operation.
