UNSPSC 27111537: Wood auger bit

Specialized bit for drilling large-diameter, deep holes in wood or thick man-made boards

UNSPSC 27111537 Wood auger bit is a Commodity code that encompasses hand tools and related supplies that state and local governments procure on an as-needed or annual contract basis for maintenance, operations, and fleet work. The scope includes individual hand tools such as augers, shovels, hammers, wrenches, saws, screwdrivers, pry bars, brushes, and specialty items like posthole diggers and files, typically supplied with fixed pricing and optional renewal terms. Issuing bodies span city procurement departments, county boards of commissioners, and state-level purchasing divisions operating cooperative procurement systems. Recent solicitations show municipal governments and counties buying hand tools in volume through multi-line-item ITBs, while state agencies leverage cooperative purchasing agreements to aggregate demand across multiple agencies and institutions.

The code sees activity across multiple states, with recent opportunities posted by the City of Augusta, Georgia (ITB 27-001 Hand Tools, due September 29, 2026, covering 39 line items with a one-year term and four optional renewal periods), Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida (ITB-26-00285, due June 23, 2026, for 52 line items over a five-year estimated value of $715,540.41), and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts statewide procurement division (Invitation for Bid No. 304T-26-445A1, due June 11, 2026, through the Texas SmartBuy cooperative purchasing system for master tool sets and individual hand tools serving TxDOT and other state agencies and higher education institutions). All three opportunities specify brand-name product references, require delivery within five to 60 days of purchase order issuance, and impose annual price adjustment caps or CPI-based escalation formulas. Local bidder preferences and M/WBE program compliance requirements apply selectively depending on jurisdiction.
