UNSPSC 25111933: Tide clocks

UNSPSC 25111933 Tide clocks is a Commodity code that does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The four opportunities indexed under this code — a marine safety work boat purchase by Hillsborough County, a marine patrol response vessel acquisition by Chatham County, a cooperative law enforcement equipment RFP through Sourcewell, and a jet boat frame fabrication notice of intent by Marion County — involve vessel procurement, equipment sourcing, and fabrication work unrelated to tide clocks or tidal measurement instrumentation. No recent solicitation found in the available sources actually seeks to procure tide clocks or clock-related products for state or local government use.

This code warrants close scrutiny before pursuit. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual opportunities indexed suggests either systematic miscoding in the state and local procurement system or that tide clocks are tagged as ancillary equipment within broader vessel or marine-operations purchases that do not themselves constitute the primary procurement intent. Without evidence of direct demand for tide-clock products or services under this code in the past six months, business development should verify whether state and local buyers actually solicit this commodity independently or only as a subordinate component within larger marine contracts. If the latter, pursuing opportunities at the Family or Class level of marine equipment or vessel procurement may be more productive than focusing on this Commodity code in isolation.
