UNSPSC 27141001: Trim or molding tools

UNSPSC 27141001 Trim or molding tools is a Commodity code that in recent state and local solicitations covers hand tools and automotive repair parts rather than trim or molding implements. The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued ITB2600285 in June 2026 for 52 line items of hand tools—pry bars, brooms, brushes, buckets, hammers, wrenches, saws, screwdrivers, and shovels—with an estimated five-year contract value of $715,540.41 and delivery required within five business days to County warehouse locations throughout Hillsborough County. The School Board of Sarasota County, Florida solicited Bid #26-0124 for a one-year supply agreement for automotive and light truck repair parts with options to renew, requiring firm percentage discounts off manufacturer list prices for parts from 19 specified OEM brands including AC Delco, Bosch, Motorcraft, and others, with 48-hour delivery for stock orders and seven business days for special orders to the Transportation Garage in Osprey, Florida. Issuing bodies under this code include county commissioners, school districts, and county boards, with both opportunities coming from Florida jurisdictions. The code shows limited recent activity focused on consumable hand tools and automotive parts supply agreements rather than trim or molding tools.

Geographic activity centers on Florida, with solicitations posted from Hillsborough County and Sarasota County in the first half of 2026. A third opportunity from Worth County, Georgia posted in February 2026 for a four-post automotive lift with installation services falls outside the nominal code scope. The Sarasota County school board opportunity applies Florida preference adjustments and encourages participation from small, minority-owned, and women-owned businesses; the Hillsborough County ITB permits cooperative purchasing through the Hillsborough County Governmental Purchasing Council under the same terms. No minimum purchase guarantees are offered in either opportunity, and both contracts are non-exclusive, reserving the County's right to procure from other vendors and Florida State contracts. The mismatch between the code's name and the actual goods being solicited—hand tools and automotive parts rather than trim or molding—suggests this Commodity code may be misapplied in recent postings or the code's definition has drifted from current procurement practice.
