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 (Commodity) covers metal fabrication equipment bases and support structures that state and local governments procure for machine shops, manufacturing facilities, and equipment maintenance operations. The recent opportunities show that state and local buyers—particularly higher education institutions, state transportation departments, and county facilities—are actively soliciting machinery and equipment components tagged under or adjacent to this code, though the opportunities present a mixed picture. Texas A&M University System has posted multiple ITBs since June 2026 for CNC equipment, press brakes, and machine shop fabrication equipment through its AggieBid platform, while the Texas Department of Transportation has solicited OEM replacement parts for Cincinnati Shear machines on two occasions (May and June 2026). Hillsborough County in Florida issued a sole-source procurement notice for five-year maintenance and parts support on Komptech composting equipment, and the State of California posted RFBs for specialized CNC water table plasma cutters. The issuing bodies span state university systems, state transportation agencies, county government, and state procurement offices. Most solicitations are issued as ITBs or RFBs with response deadlines ranging from ten to thirty days.

The activity concentrates in Texas, where TAMUS and TxDOT have posted the bulk of recent opportunities, with secondary activity in California and Florida. TAMUS has issued at least five machine-shop–related ITBs between June and October 2026, all administered through its AggieBid procurement portal and directed to Sterling Crowdus at soprocurement@tamus.edu. Representative recent opportunities include TAMUS ITB TAMUS-ITB-27-0548 for a press brake (due October 29, 2026), TAMUS ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0541 for machine shop, welding, and fabrication equipment (due July 15, 2026), and TxDOT Invitation for Bid 601440000053313 for OEM replacement parts for Cincinnati Shear machines (due June 2, 2026). The composite picture suggests that the code's scope diverges somewhat from typical machine table base procurement—the recent opportunities emphasize complete equipment purchases and maintenance parts rather than bases alone—and activity appears episodic rather than steady-state across most jurisdictions except TAMUS.
