About UNSPSC 31161520

UNSPSC 31161520 Hexagonal head screw is a Commodity code, yet the recent state and local solicitation activity tagged under it diverges sharply from fastener procurement. The Harris County Department of Education (HCDE), soliciting in partnership with cooperative purchasing vehicle Choice Partners, posted a competitive sealed proposal (26021MR, due May 15, 2026) for painting, drywall, acoustical ceiling, and flooring services — work bearing no direct relation to screw procurement. The solicitation structure combines a time-and-materials maintenance component with a job order contracting (JOC) component using coefficient multipliers applied to established unit price books (BNi, RS Means, Xactimate, and others), with an initial one-year term plus three optional one-year renewals. This mismatch suggests either a coding error in the source data or that the code is not seeing genuine hexagonal fastener procurement activity from state and local bodies at present.

No recent state and local procurement activity specifically targeting hexagonal head screws or related fastener products appears in the available opportunities block. The single opportunity attributed to the code covers construction services in Texas under HCDE/Choice Partners, with a maximum annual aggregate contract price of $200 million across all awards and evaluation weighted toward pricing (40 points), quality and project management (25 points), and vendor reputation (20 points). Until state and local solicitations for actual fastener supply or fastener-inclusive maintenance contracts materialize under this code, the activity signal remains absent.
