UNSPSC 31341711: Waspalloy bolted sheet assemblies

UNSPSC 31341711 Waspalloy bolted sheet assemblies is a Commodity code that covers fabricated metal assemblies and sheet stock used in industrial production, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not align with the nominal scope — the posted opportunities target coiled aluminum for license plate manufacturing and pallet rack wire decking for facility storage, neither of which are waspalloy bolted assemblies. The Colorado Department of Corrections has dominated recent activity, issuing two closely sequenced Invitations for Bid in May 2026 for 350,000 pounds of coiled aluminum alloy (3105H21, 21-gauge thickness, 11.98 to 12.00 inches coil width) for Colorado Correctional Industries' license plate production at the Canon City Tag Plant. Both solicitations call for monthly delivery in three truckloads of approximately 37,000 pounds each, with material pretreated and conversion-coated per ASTM B-449-Class 2 specifications, and pricing evaluated on a firm per-pound basis. The Los Angeles County Superior Court posted a separate opportunity in April 2026 for 606 wire decking units (52 inches by 42 inches, 2,500-pound load capacity) through its Bonfire portal, soliciting quotes by May 7, 2026. These three opportunities are the only recent state and local contracts posted under this code.

Activity under UNSPSC 31341711 is concentrated in California and Colorado, with the Colorado Department of Corrections accounting for two overlapping solicitations in a single month. Both Colorado IFBs offered a 5% bid preference for Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses with proper federal certification; no other set-asides were disclosed. All responding vendors to the Colorado coiled-aluminum solicitations must submit pricing and exhibits electronically through bidnetdirect.com, complete background clearance and PREA compliance training to access correctional facilities, and provide proof of good standing with the Colorado Secretary of State and Workers' Compensation and General Liability insurance. The Los Angeles Superior Court solicitation required electronic submission via Bonfire by May 7, 2026, with all pricing inclusive of costs and freight, and the Court reserved the right to award to a single vendor or reject all bids. No incumbent vendors, contract values, or budget ranges were disclosed in any of the three opportunities. The code shows little aligned recent activity overall, suggesting either inconsistent tagging by issuing bodies or limited state and local procurement demand for waspalloy and similar high-performance sheet assemblies.
