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 that covers measurement and inspection tools used in manufacturing and construction quality control; however, the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with profile-gauge procurement. The most recent solicitations under this tag involve precast concrete pads, sleeves, and posts for utility infrastructure; building entrance restoration with concrete and trench work; janitorial supplies; ready-mix concrete delivery; and emergency bridge replacement. Of these, only the precast concrete pad and entrance restoration work tangentially relate to dimensional measurement or inspection, and none explicitly call for profile gauges or similar precision measurement instruments. The issuing bodies include municipal utilities (Kissimmee Utility Authority), county administrations (Indian River County, Orange County, Hillsborough County), and city departments (City of Jackson, City of Madison), reflecting fragmented procurement across Florida, Wisconsin, and Michigan jurisdictions. The code appears to be misclassified or underutilized for profile-gauge procurement at the state and local level.

Kissimmee Utility Authority issued two related solicitations for precast concrete products under AR26033JG (cancelled July 1, 2026 after rejecting all bids) and AR26050JG (IFB due August 11, 2026), each calling for 16 line items across pads, sleeves, and posts totaling 476 estimated units over a five-year term with firm-fixed unit pricing. Orange County, Florida solicited emergency bridge replacement bids (RFP Y26-742, due July 7, 2026) estimated at $6.2 million for two bridge projects with extensive design and geotechnical documentation. Indian River County issued a re-bid for concrete entrance restoration (RFQ 2026033, due August 27, 2026) including demolition, concrete replacement, and trench-drain installation at the County Administration Complex with liquidated damages at $904 per calendar day for delay. None of these recent opportunities explicitly specify profile-gauge requirements, suggesting limited current demand for the commodity under this code in state and local procurement.
