UNSPSC 25201709: Aircraft probes or sensors

UNSPSC 25201709 Aircraft probes or sensors is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local activity tagged under it diverges significantly from the code's nominal scope. The only substantive recent opportunity — the City of Phoenix's RFQ for flight helmets, accessories, and repair services — falls outside the aircraft probes or sensors taxonomy; it is a personal protective equipment procurement for police and fire helicopter crews. A second record, from Texas State Technical College Waco, solicits turbine training engines for aviation instruction, which are educational equipment, not sensors or probes. The third entry is an administrative notice of an office relocation with no procurement scope. The code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local markets aligned with its actual definition.

The City of Phoenix RFQ-26-0319 (posted September 29, 2026, due July 6, 2026) required sealed offers for Gentex Alpha Eagle flight helmets, communication equipment, replacement parts, and fitting and repair services on a five-year term with two optional two-year extensions; the contractor must be an authorized Arizona-based distributor with OEM certifications and in-person fitting capability, equipment delivery within 60 days, and repair turnaround within 60 days. Texas State Technical College at Waco issued RFP 1209144 (posted June 10, 2026, same-day deadline) for six non-airworthy turboprop training engines and stationary stands for aviation powerplant laboratory instruction, with firm pricing valid 120 days and a one-year warranty, evaluated on specifications (45 points), price (30 points), delivery and warranty (20 points), and vendor history of support for Texas higher education (5 points). Geographic reach spans Arizona and Texas; no other states or repeat buyers appear in the recent record.
