UNSPSC 24102005: Automated storage or retrieval systems

UNSPSC 24102005 Automated storage or retrieval systems is a Commodity code encompassing the purchase and maintenance of physical storage equipment and systems, including metal shelving units, vertical carousel file systems, and related hardware deployed across state and local operations. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying standard warehouse and office shelving for immediate capacity expansion, as well as specialized automated file retrieval systems requiring preventative maintenance, emergency repair, and component replacement services. Issuing bodies include city procurement offices (Philadelphia), counties (Broward County, Chatham County), unified school districts (Paradise Valley Unified School District), and public universities (Middle Georgia State University), with Philadelphia appearing twice in recent activity suggesting repeat procurement activity in that jurisdiction.

Geographic spread covers Arizona (Phoenix), Florida (Broward County), Georgia (Chatham County, Middle Georgia State University), and Pennsylvania (Philadelphia), with no single state dominating the recent opportunity stream. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Philadelphia's micro purchase for shelving under B2727501 (due July 24, 2026), Chatham County's competitive sealed bid for purchase and installation of 71 metal shelving units for the Clerk of Superior Court (due April 2, 2026), the City of Phoenix's five-year IFB for warehouse shelving (initial due date June 1, 2026, later extended to October 18, 2022 per addendum), and Paradise Valley Unified School District's RFP for preventative maintenance, repair, and replacement of 12 vertical carousel file systems across multiple departments (due April 3, 2026). Pricing for these opportunities ranges from under $40,000 for Philadelphia's micro purchases to larger multi-year equipment contracts; typical terms include 60-day price validity, FOB destination delivery, and standard insurance requirements.
