UNSPSC 26101706: Aircraft transmission units

UNSPSC 26101706 Aircraft transmission units is a Commodity code covering specialized power-transmission components for aircraft, though recent state and local activity under this code centers on complete remanufactured aircraft engines and turbine training equipment rather than transmission units alone. State and local governments buying under this code include state agencies operating aircraft fleets, technical colleges running aviation training programs, and county purchasing offices supporting operational aviation needs. The scope of work solicited includes remanufactured engines for operational aircraft, turbine powerplant training equipment for aviation instruction, and associated delivery, warranty, and technical documentation.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Texas and Michigan. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources issued RFQ 26-282 in May 2026 for a remanufactured Lycoming IO-540-AB1A5 engine for a 2008 Cessna 182R aircraft (tail number N6275S) with a May 19, 2026 due date, resulting in award to Air Power, Inc. at $82,293.00. Texas State Technical College (TSTC) at Waco released RFP #1209144 in June 2026 seeking six non-airworthy turboprop training engines and stationary stands for aviation powerplant laboratory instruction, with a June 10, 2026 deadline and evaluation criteria favoring quoted specifications (45 points), pricing (30 points), delivery and warranty (20 points), and documented support for Texas higher education institutions (5 points). Both opportunities required sealed submission through state portals and specified FOB destination delivery with advance notice requirements.
