UNSPSC 27111711: Ratchets

UNSPSC 27111711 Ratchets is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement shows minimal alignment with its nominal scope. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners posted ITB2600319 on July 7, 2026, seeking consumable janitorial and operational supplies—including items such as cleaning agents, paper products, and facility maintenance consumables—for the Hillsborough County Fire Rescue Department's 47 fire stations operating continuously. The estimated contract value is $765,679.84 for a one-year term. The ITB notice does not specify ratchets or hand tools as line items; the code assignment appears to reflect miscategorization in the County's taxonomy mapping rather than actual procurement demand for ratchet tools. Bidders must be authorized distributors capable of standard delivery within ten days or emergency delivery within five business days to the Public Safety Operations Complex in Tampa, Florida, with all shipments coordinated between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. EST, Monday through Friday. The County reserves the right to award by line item, group, section, or overall total net bid price and does not guarantee minimum purchase quantities.

The recent opportunity record shows only one solicitation tagged to this code, limiting geographic characterization. Hillsborough County, Florida, is the sole identified issuing body in the dataset. The lack of additional recent state and local opportunities under UNSPSC 27111711 suggests either very low procurement activity in this Commodity category or consistent miscoding of broader janitorial and supplies acquisitions under this ratchet-specific code. Firms pursuing state and local janitorial and maintenance supplies contracts should note this mismatch and verify code assignments in future RFQs and ITBs to confirm actual scope before bidding.
