UNSPSC 23291503: Indexable insert drill

UNSPSC 23291503 Indexable insert drill is a Commodity code. Recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not align with the nominal scope — indexable inserts and drill tooling — but rather show solicitations for industrial fabrication and manufacturing equipment including CNC routers, press brakes, and 3D printers. The Texas A&M University System has dominated recent posting activity under the code, issuing multiple ITBs through its AggieBid electronic procurement platform for press brakes (multiple instances between September and October 2026), 3D printers (September 2026), and an industrial CNC router (October 2026). A single cooperative procurement notice from Sourcewell covering law enforcement equipment also appears in the recent record but represents an outlier unrelated to the code's tooling scope. The mismatch between the code's stated category and the actual equipment being solicited suggests either a data-classification variance in state and local systems or a secondary use of the code outside its primary taxonomy intent.

Activity under this code concentrates in Texas, driven by Texas A&M University System's recurring equipment purchases through AggieBid. The Texas A&M ITBs for press brakes and 3D printers closed in late September 2026 (September 24–25) with additional press brake and CNC router bids due in late October 2026 (October 23 and 29). All Texas A&M solicitations require electronic submission through AggieBid with no late submissions accepted; detailed specifications, contract values, and technical requirements remain confidential within the platform and are not disclosed in public postings. Contact for questions on Texas A&M opportunities is Sterling Crowdus at soprocurement@tamus.edu. The Sourcewell RFP for law enforcement equipment (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026) represents the only multi-state cooperative opportunity in the recent record, spanning Washington counties and numerous other jurisdictions nationwide, but falls outside the indexable insert drill commodity scope.
