UNSPSC 25191816: Compression type spring tester

A device for testing the tension or reactive force compression type coil springs on valves, clutches and cylinder heads on internal combustion engines. It tests for free height, squareness of the spring with the spring placed on the plane part of the tester.

UNSPSC 25191816 Compression type spring tester is a Commodity code that describes specialized diagnostic equipment for crash data retrieval and vehicle event data recording (EDR) systems. State and local governments procure these tools to investigate vehicle collisions, support traffic safety analysis, and conduct forensic examination of crash circumstances. The work involves supplying complete diagnostic kits with software licenses, hardware bundles, direct-to-module cables, adapters, and associated peripherals tailored to specific vehicle manufacturer platforms. Issuing bodies are typically state public safety departments and transportation agencies that operate crash investigation and accident reconstruction programs.

The Texas Department of Public Safety issued an Invitation for Bids (IFB 405-26R0015950) on June 2, 2026, with a response deadline of May 29, 2026, for a comprehensive procurement of Crash Data Retrieval Kits including CDR DLC Tool Kits with annual software licenses, Hyundai and Kia EDR 2.0 Tool Kits with hardware bases and multiple annual software licenses, Tesla EDR Hardware Kit Bundles with direct-to-module cables and adapters, and 25 Hyundai, Genesis, and Kia ACU Direct-to-Module cables with adapters, with freight delivery to DPS Headquarters in Austin. Bidders must demonstrate financial solvency through audited financial statements for the prior two years or equivalent documentation, submit responses in three volumes covering contract forms, technical capabilities with three project references, and itemized pricing on a mandatory schedule, and comply with federal and state certification requirements including cybersecurity training and Texas-specific conflict-of-interest provisions. The contract term is one year from the effective date with a possible six-month extension, and DPS retains the right to procure on an as-needed basis with no minimum compensation guaranteed. No specific award value is published. Recent activity under this code is limited; the only identifiable relevant opportunity in the block is the Texas DPS solicitation, and a second posting is a notice of office relocation unrelated to procurement.
