UNSPSC 27111731: Precision screwdriver

A type of screwdriver designed for very fine work characterized by accurate action tapered for quick turning and usually equipped with a rotating cap for fingertip control.

UNSPSC 27111731 Precision screwdriver is a Commodity code tracking hand tools procured by state and local governments for fleet maintenance, automotive repair, and general facility operations. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts (CPA) Statewide Procurement Division is the primary recent issuing body, soliciting precision screwdrivers as part of larger master tool sets and individual tool packages through the Texas SmartBuy cooperative purchasing system for use by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), other state agencies, and institutions of higher education. The scope encompasses precision screwdrivers as a component of comprehensive mechanic tool kits—specifically, master tool sets must include a minimum of 36 screwdrivers among their 1,152 total pieces—alongside hand tools, power tools, diagnostic equipment, and storage solutions. Precision screwdrivers are also available as individual line items with firm discount pricing from manufacturer catalogs, allowing agencies to source them separately from bundled sets. Solicitations under this code reflect procurement by state transportation and facility-management agencies via cooperative purchasing vehicles that extend offerings to multiple state entities and higher-education institutions.

The recent activity is concentrated in Texas. The Texas CPA issued Invitation for Bid No. 304T-26-445A1 on June 11, 2026, with responses due June 11, 2026, at 1:30 PM Central Time. Respondents must demonstrate a minimum of seven years' experience in professional-grade mechanic tools, statewide distribution and 24-hour on-site repair capability, and compliance with ten-year warranty requirements covering labor, materials, and parts. The contract runs through July 31, 2027, with four renewal options extending through July 31, 2030, plus an additional one-year option. A pre-proposal conference was held May 28, 2026, via Microsoft Teams. The source identifies no other state or local jurisdictions with recent precision-screwdriver solicitations, limiting geographic visibility to Texas activity at present.
