UNSPSC 31251514: Aircraft electromechanical actuator

A device that operates aircraft mechanical components such as flaps, slaps, landing gear and others.

UNSPSC 31251514 Aircraft electromechanical actuator is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, encompasses a broader range of aircraft equipment and systems than the code name alone suggests. State and local governments are using this code to procure flight safety equipment, training systems, diagnostic tools, and aircraft ground-support systems. Recent opportunities show purchases of flight helmets with communication and protective systems for police and fire helicopter operations, turbine training engines for aviation instruction, unmanned aerial systems with ignition components for prescribed burns, aircraft boarding ramps with integrated electrical systems, and specialized aircraft diagnostic analyzers for maintenance operations. The issuing bodies span city procurement departments (Phoenix), county governments (Okaloosa County and Collier County in Florida, Williamson County in Texas), and state-level entities (Texas State Technical College and Georgia Department of Natural Resources). Issuing bodies are using RFPs, RFQs, and ITBs to solicit these goods and services, with contract terms typically running five years or longer and incorporating federal compliance requirements such as Buy American provisions, Davis-Bacon wages, and DBE flow-down obligations where applicable.

Activity clusters in the Southwest and Southeast. The City of Phoenix issued RFQ 260319 for flight helmets and repair services (due July 6, 2026), requiring Arizona-based contractors with OEM certifications for Gentex Alpha Eagle equipment to support Police and Fire Departments. Texas State Technical College at Waco posted RFP 1209144 (due June 10, 2026) for six turbine training engines and stands for aviation powerplant laboratory instruction, with evaluation weighted toward specifications (45 points), pricing (30 points), and vendor history of support for Texas higher education institutions (5 points). Georgia Department of Natural Resources released an eRFQ (due May 15, 2026) to establish an open agency contract for unmanned aerial systems with ignition components and related support services, anticipating initial purchases of two units with at least seven additional systems over the contract term. Okaloosa County, Florida issued ITB AP3026 for two mobile aircraft boarding ramps for Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport (due February 25, 2026), with extensive federal compliance requirements and a ninety-day bid hold. Collier County, Florida issued a single-source notice for a MicroVib II Aircraft Analyzer from Dynamic Solutions Systems, Inc. (deadline February 26, 2026), including on-site factory training. The code shows no recent activity outside these examples.
