UNSPSC 24101739: Bulk receiving unit

This equipment is similar to a belt conveyor, but the belt is wider and has side walls to hold the material. Equipment orientation is horizontal with the discharge end inclined upwards

UNSPSC 24101739 Bulk receiving unit is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitation activity, does not align meaningfully with what governments are actually procuring under this code designation. The recent opportunities posted under 24101739 span traffic signal infrastructure, conveyor system equipment, paving contracts, office supplies, and professional engineering services — a fragmented set of acquisitions that share no coherent connection to bulk receiving units or their supporting equipment and materials.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Texas (Brownsville, Fort Worth, Dallas), Colorado (Boulder County), Florida (Pasco County), Oklahoma, Georgia (Atlanta), Michigan (Detroit), and the District of Columbia, with Texas dominating the recent posting volume across multiple cities and counties. Issuing bodies include city transportation departments (Brownsville, Fort Worth, Dallas, Phoenix, Detroit, Temple), county governments (Pasco County, Harris County, Cameron County, Boulder County), special-purpose districts (Atlanta BeltLine), state agencies (Oklahoma), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Purchasing Cooperative of America). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Brownsville's 12th Street Traffic Signal Improvement Project (IFB, due October 29, 2026), seeking sealed bids for modernized traffic signal equipment funded through Surface Transportation Block Grant-Metropolitan Mobility; the City of Phoenix Water Services Department's conveyor system equipment contract (IFB-25-0748, due May 23, 2025), seeking authorized distributors of specialized conveyor parts for an eight-year term; and the City of Temple's sign and traffic control supplies agreement (ITB, due July 23, 2026), with an estimated annual value of $50,000. The code shows active recent posting activity but lacks coherence as a buying category — the disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited signals either a systematic tagging error across multiple jurisdictions or a code assignment that no longer reflects procurement practice in this category.
