UNSPSC 27112734: Jigsaw

A tool used for cutting arbitrary curves, such as stenciled designs or other custom shapes, into a piece of wood or similar material. It is usually used in a more artistic fashion than other saws, which only cut in straight lines and exist mainly to cut pieces of wood to length for building structures. In this way, it is similar to the rasp and the chisel.

UNSPSC 27112734 Jigsaw is a Commodity code covering small hand and power tools that state and local governments procure for maintenance, construction, and facility operations. The recent solicitation activity shows state and local buyers purchasing jigsaws alongside other cutting tools, saws, and reciprocating blades under competitive sealed bids—typically as part of broader hand-tool or cutting-implement supply contracts awarded to single vendors on an as-needed basis with no guaranteed minimums. Work under this code spans both branded product procurement (where jurisdictions specify exact model numbers and parts) and general tool supply agreements that feed maintenance and operations across multiple County facilities and departments.

Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners is the primary recent buyer, issuing competitive sealed bids (ITBs) for hand tools and reciprocating saw blades in 2026. The County's hand-tools ITB (ITB2600285, due June 23, 2026) carried an estimated five-year value of $715,540.41 and covered 52 line items including saws, pry bars, hammers, and wrenches; the reciprocating-saw-blades ITB (ITB2600199, due March 26, 2026) valued $78,367.00 over two years and required exact brand and part-number compliance for Milwaukee and Diablo products. Both contracts allowed price adjustments tied to the Consumer Price Index and were open to Hillsborough County Governmental Purchasing Council members under identical terms. The source reflects activity in Florida; no other states or issuing bodies appear in recent opportunities under this code.
