UNSPSC 24101652: Jib crane

A crane that has the inclined jib that is also referred to as the slewing crane with many turns to make. It has a horizontal cantilever shape that extends from the vertical post.

UNSPSC 24101652 Jib crane is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to the code's nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span bridge construction and replacement, drainage system improvements, culvert repairs, emergency crane services, overhead crane inspections, and rooftop crane design—none of which involve procurement or installation of jib cranes themselves. Jib cranes are fixed or portable lifting devices typically used in manufacturing, warehousing, or maintenance operations; the source shows no state or local solicitations for jib crane equipment or systems. One opportunity—Eastern Municipal Water District RFQ 3915 posted March 19, 2026, due April 10, 2026—does address crane systems but focuses on inspection, certification, and repair services for overhead and mobile cranes rather than jib crane procurement.

The misalignment between the code taxonomy and actual procurement activity suggests the code is either dormant or systematically mislabeled in state and local databases. The bridge-replacement and infrastructure-repair opportunities appearing under this code (Orange County, Florida; Sarasota County; City of Palm Bay / Brevard County; Winnebago County, Wisconsin; Bergen County, New Jersey) are civil-works projects requiring heavy construction equipment and labor, not equipment sales. The crane-services opportunities (Orange County Transportation Authority, Keys Energy Services, Texas Department of Transportation, EMWD) target operational services—rigging, inspection, emergency response—rather than jib crane goods. This pattern indicates either systematic miscoding in the state and local procurement systems or a definitional gap between UNSPSC 24101652 and how purchasing offices categorize lifting-equipment work. A business pursuing jib crane sales to state and local government should verify whether opportunities are being posted under this code or a different taxonomy tier in target jurisdictions before committing resources to monitoring this line.
