UNSPSC 24101640: Traversing gear unit

Traversing gear for a working machine comprising a drive motor, which is connected to a hydrostatic compound gear that has a hydraulic pump and two hydraulic motors.

UNSPSC 24101640 Traversing gear unit (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The two most recent opportunities tagged to this code—an electronic IT items purchase from the City of Dallas and a security systems services, parts, and consumables procurement from the School Board of Sarasota County, Florida—involve no traversing gear units or related mechanical transmission equipment. The City of Dallas RFQ (due June 8, 2026) sought new, unopened IT hardware for delivery to airport logistics, while the Sarasota County school system's ITB #26-0158 (due March 10, 2026) established a multi-year vendor contract for security systems equipment, installation labor, maintenance, and gate inspections across 52 school locations, including hourly rates for standard and non-standard service hours and annual gate inspection pricing. Neither procurement involves the mechanical drive components this code nominally describes.

The code shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. Buyers across jurisdictions appear to use this UNSPSC designation inconsistently or in error when tagging unrelated goods and services. Business development professionals should monitor this code cautiously; the absence of genuine traversing gear unit solicitations suggests either very low demand at the state and local level or persistent miscategorization in procurement systems. If pursuing opportunities tagged to this code, validate the actual scope of work before responding, as tagging mismatches create substantial bid risk.
