UNSPSC 23242402: Multi-tasking or universal machining center

Machining centers that are equipped with both horizontal and vertical spindles. They have a variety of features and are capable of machining all surfaces of a workpiece (vertical, horizontal, and diagonal).

UNSPSC 23242402 Multi-tasking or universal machining center, a Commodity code, encompasses CNC machining equipment that state and local governments acquire for educational programs, workforce training, and technical operations. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers are purchasing CNC lathes, machining centers, Wire EDM equipment, and integrated robotics milling systems with ancillary tooling, transformers, and installation services. The issuing bodies include higher education institutions (Texas A&M University System, Texas State Technical College), school districts (Seminole County Schools), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple jurisdictions. Specifications typically require fixed pricing for initial contract terms, delivery and installation within defined timelines, and compliance with race- and sex-neutral contracting criteria or equivalent state procurement standards.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Florida. The Texas A&M University System posted two separate ITBs for CNC equipment in June and July 2026 (TAMUS-ITB-26-0540 due July 13, and TAMUS-ITB-26-0542 due July 23), both closing within weeks of posting and requiring electronic bidding through the AggieBid platform. Texas State Technical College issued RFP-315 for Wire EDM machines with an anticipated value exceeding $100,000, requiring subcontracting plans and fixed pricing with tariff protections through its Jaggaer procurement platform. The Seminole County Schools board in Florida sole-sourced robotics milling equipment totaling $136,572.13 from DC Jaeger Corporation. A Sourcewell cooperative RFP for law enforcement equipment (RFP #061626) posted in May 2026 spans multiple Washington state counties and nationwide participating entities, though this entry appears misaligned with the machining-center code's scope. Submission deadlines cluster in the summer months; all recent opportunities enforce electronic platform registration and exclude late submissions.
