UNSPSC 30101710: Brass beams

UNSPSC 30101710 Brass beams is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code involve structural steel, concrete, pedestrian bridge construction, fire station facility replacement, and general metal procurement — none of which center on brass beams as a line item or primary deliverable. The City of San Antonio Capital Delivery Department has posted two large construction RFPs for the Hays Street Bridge Connections project (RFCSP2026025, due August 25, 2026) and Fire Station #33 Facility Replacement (RFCSP2026071, due July 30, 2026), both funded through 2022 Bond programs and listing structural shapes and site work among applicable categories. Sarasota County posted an IFB for a steel truss pedestrian bridge (262861MN, due July 20, 2026). The University of Wisconsin-Madison posted an RFB for general metals procurement including steel, aluminum, and stainless steel (2026-UWMSN-01207-RFB, closed April 20, 2026). These solicitations reflect construction and materials-procurement activity, but none explicitly call for brass beams or suggest that brass components are a material focus.

Recent opportunities appear in Texas (San Antonio), Florida (Sarasota County), and Wisconsin (Madison). The issuing bodies include municipal capital departments, county governments, and a state university. The mismatch between the code's brass-beam scope and the actual work being solicited under it suggests that state and local procurement offices may be applying this code to broader structural and metalwork categories. A vendor focused on brass beams specifically would find little actionable current activity under this code; the volume and specificity of recent solicitations do not support brass beams as a material procurement driver in state and local construction or operations.
