UNSPSC 23242702: Welded tube mill machinery

Machinery used in the fabrication and finishing of welded tubular components

UNSPSC 23242702 Welded tube mill machinery, a Commodity code, encompasses equipment and components used in metal fabrication and machine-shop operations — specifically CNC lathes, machining centers, press brakes, plasma cutters, welding equipment, and associated OEM replacement parts. State and local governments procure under this code primarily to support university system manufacturing facilities, transportation departments, and county landfill operations. Texas A&M University System (TAMUS) has been a repeat buyer, issuing multiple ITBs since June 2026 for CNC equipment (ITB-26-0540, July 13), machine shop and welding equipment (ITB-26-0541, July 15), CNC lathe and machining center (ITB-26-0542, July 23), and multiple press brakes (ITB-26-0545 and ITB-26-0548, through October 29). Texas Department of Transportation has also posted multiple solicitations for OEM replacement parts for Cincinnati Shear machines (due June 2 and April 16, 2026). Beyond equipment purchase, the code captures specialized services such as structural steel support installation and mechanical disconnect/reconnect work, as evidenced by Park City Municipal Corporation's IFB for Park City Ice Arena rooftop mechanical support improvements (due August 20, 2026).

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, with TAMUS and TxDOT representing the bulk of opportunities, and secondary activity in Utah (Park City) and California (State of California RFB IS-27200068 for unspecified manufacturing equipment, due August 17, and RFB-IS-26201000 for a Water Table CNC Hypertherm plasma cutter, due June 15). TAMUS solicitations specify electronic submission through the AggieBid platform with responses directed to Sterling Crowdus at soprocurement@tamus.edu; TxDOT opportunities require registration on the Centralized Master Bidders List and submission through the Euna Procurement system. Hillsborough County's June 2026 sole-source notice for composting equipment maintenance ($1,992,824.18 over five years) demonstrates demand for OEM parts and warranty service outside traditional machine-shop settings. Most recent TAMUS ITBs have closed or are closing between July and October 2026, with contract specifications, pricing, and terms housed exclusively within the AggieBid portal and unavailable in public posting summaries.
