UNSPSC 27112830 Screwdriver accessories and supplies is a Commodity code that, in recent state and local solicitations, encompasses master tool sets and individual hand tools (screwdrivers, wrenches, pliers, punches, and chisels) together with power tools, diagnostic equipment, and storage solutions for fleet and garage maintenance operations. The code captures procurement of professional-grade mechanic tool kits and ancillary supplies used by transportation departments, public works operations, and higher-education institutions for maintenance and repair activities. Issuing bodies include state procurement divisions acting as cooperative purchasing administrators on behalf of operating agencies and educational institutions.

The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division posted Invitation for Bid No. 304T-26-445A1 in June 2026 to procure master tool sets (minimum 1,152 pieces including at minimum 36 screwdrivers, 197 wrenches, 27 pliers, 31 punches and chisels, and diagnostic equipment) and individual hand and power tools through the Texas SmartBuy cooperative purchasing system for use by the Texas Department of Transportation and other state agencies and higher-education institutions. The IFB required respondents to demonstrate a minimum of seven years' experience in professional-grade mechanic tools, statewide sales and repair capability within 24 hours, and full disclosure of product recalls from the prior three years. Awards were structured to permit multiple vendors for different line items, with evaluation weighted 30 percent pricing, 30 percent respondent qualifications, and 40 percent product quality and availability. The initial contract term ran through July 31, 2027, with four renewal options through July 31, 2030, plus an option for one additional year, with 1.5 percent Texas SmartBuy administrative fee and annual price adjustments permitted after the initial term. All products required ten-year warranties covering labor, materials, and parts at no charge, and respondents were required to maintain $500,000 minimum commercial general liability insurance from AM Best A- or better carriers.
