UNSPSC 31171534: Tapped base bearing

Mounted bearing having tapped holes in its base for attachment.

UNSPSC 31171534 Tapped base bearing is a Commodity code. State and local governments buy maintenance and repair parts under this code as components of broader facility-support procurement, typically aggregated with hundreds of other line items in mixed-goods requests. The San Bernardino County Project & Facilities Management Department's recent ITB 6391 illustrates the pattern: tapped base bearings appear alongside HVAC components, electrical supplies, motors, pumps, plumbing materials, and tools as part of a single procurement spanning over 500 line items needed to support ongoing facility operations and maintenance. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county governments and facility management divisions responsible for capital and maintenance asset lifecycles. The work does not generate standalone procurements; instead, tapped base bearings compete for vendor attention within larger parts-and-supplies ITBs and RFQs where the line-item count and diversity favor broad industrial suppliers or distributors over specialists.

Recent activity concentrates in California, where San Bernardino County issued ITB 6391 (posted May 18, 2026, due June 19, 2026) for parts and supplies with a tentative contract start of July 1, 2026. Submission of questions closed June 5, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. PST, with proposals due at 4:00 p.m. PST on the response date. Bidders must price a minimum of 20 items from the provided list on an F.O.B. destination basis with freight charges priced separately and California sales/use and Federal excise taxes excluded. San Bernardino County applies a 5 percent local vendor preference and awards on best value, with consideration for discounts of 30 days or greater. Delivery must occur within 14 days of purchase order receipt during business hours Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. PST, excluding federal holidays, with Net 60 payment terms. The code shows limited recent activity in the available opportunities block; the Williamson County notice of relocation carries no procurement scope and does not constitute a solicitation.
