UNSPSC 27111823: Center gauge

An instrument used in installation and adjustment of shelves and screw bite, and testing of angle of tools. One side is used to measure angle while the other side has scales.

UNSPSC 27111823 Center gauge (Commodity) shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The three recent opportunities posted under this code—a City of Phoenix landscape equipment supply contract, and two Jacksonville Transportation Authority automated transit vehicle procurements—are unrelated to center gauges or gauge-based measurement tools. The Phoenix IFB solicits landscape, agricultural, and field maintenance equipment, parts, and accessories from manufacturers such as Gravely, Jacobsen Mowers, Walker, and Ryan Turf Equipment for a five-year contract commencing April 1, 2026. The JTA procurements (P-24-019 and P26009) seek highly automated transit vehicles with SAE Level 4 automated driving systems across multiple operational design domains. None of these solicitations align with the code's nominal scope of center gauge products or services.

State and local purchasing offices appear to be applying this Commodity code inconsistently or have tagged opportunities that do not match its intended use. Without evidence of center gauges being solicited by state departments, counties, cities, school districts, or transit authorities in recent postings, the code does not present a clear market signal or actionable opportunities for business development targeting state and local buyers. Firms pursuing measurement and gauging tools should monitor broader Family and Class codes in the precision instruments and measurement-device taxonomy rather than rely on this Commodity code as a procurement indicator.
