UNSPSC 27112224: Profile gauge

A tool designed to help transfer awkward shapes onto tiles for cutting. Its use is not restricted to tiling and it can be useful in woodworking and other crafts.

UNSPSC 27112224 Profile gauge is a Commodity code representing precision measurement instruments that state and local governments procure for operational and maintenance activities. Recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code reveal substantial divergence from the code's nominal scope: the sourced opportunities span janitorial supplies, concrete sidewalk replacement, bridge construction, ready-mix concrete delivery, pedestrian infrastructure, and concrete saws — none of which are profile gauges. The code shows little activity aligned with actual profile-gauge procurement at the state and local level, and the opportunities present appear to reflect mis-tagging in source systems rather than genuine demand for the measurement instrument the code nominally describes.

The geographic spread of opportunities across the recent sample includes Florida (Hillsborough County, Orange County), Wisconsin (Waukesha County, City of Jackson), Georgia (City of Fairburn), and the City of Madison in Wisconsin, with issuing bodies ranging from county governments and municipal public works departments to fire rescue operations and community development authorities. Without verified recent opportunities for profile gauges themselves, geographic concentration and buying patterns specific to the code cannot be characterized from the available source material.
