UNSPSC 26111813: Variable speed pulley

A type of pulley that can mechanically adjust to accommodate various pitch diameters.

UNSPSC 26111813 Variable speed pulley is a Commodity code that does not align with the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local opportunities. The recent opportunities posted under this code involve emergency backup generators, IT infrastructure cabling, bus engine and chassis repair, electrical power generation equipment, electric motors for baggage handling systems, generator maintenance and repair services, power distribution panels, and motor repair services. None of these procurement activities relate to variable speed pulleys—mechanical transmission components that regulate rotational speed in machinery. The code shows a persistent mismatch between its nominal scope and the diverse electrical and mechanical equipment and services that issuing bodies have tagged to it, suggesting either systematic miscoding or use of the code as a catch-all for equipment procurement that does not fit more specific classifications.

Activity under the code concentrates in Georgia and Florida, with recent opportunities from Columbia County and DeKalb County, Georgia; the City of Dallas, Texas; South Dakota through Sourcewell; Lee County Port Authority in Florida; and the Clayton County Water Authority in Georgia. The issuing bodies include county governments, a county water authority, a city, a state procurement cooperative, a port authority, and a transit authority. Representative recent opportunities include Columbia County, Georgia's emergency backup generator procurement (BID 2026021-BID3289, due July 9, 2026) requiring a mandatory pre-bid meeting on June 17, 2026; the City of Dallas's three-year ID/IQ generator maintenance and repair services contract (BT2600029808, due May 15, 2026) with 10.10 percent Developing Regional & Inclusive Vendor Enterprises participation goals; the Clayton County Water Authority's motor repair services annual contract (2026-GS-03, due March 6, 2026) offering Small Local Business Enterprise bid discounts of seven to ten percent; and Lee County Port Authority's Baldor electric motor purchase for baggage handling systems (RFB 26-0025BW, due April 20, 2026) requiring fixed pricing over a three-year initial term with two optional two-year renewals. The breadth of equipment categories and service types coded under this Commodity suggests limited decision-relevance for firms specializing in variable speed pulleys specifically.
