UNSPSC 31361204: Inconel bolted plate assemblies

UNSPSC 31361204 Inconel bolted plate assemblies, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code involve coiled aluminum for license plate production (Colorado Department of Corrections, May 2026) and pallet rack wire decking (Los Angeles Superior Court, April 2026)—neither product matches the code's stated focus on Inconel bolted plate assemblies. The Colorado opportunities are straightforward commodity procurements: the state seeks 350,000 pounds of aluminum alloy 3105H21 in 21-gauge coil stock with specific tensile strength, yield strength, and conversion coating specifications for embossing into automobile license plates. The Los Angeles Superior Court procurement is for 606 units of 52-inch by 42-inch wire decking rated at 2,500 pounds per deck. Both are lowest-cost competitive bids with standard insurance and good-standing requirements; the Colorado procurements offer a 5 percent pricing preference to Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses.

The code currently reports activity from a state correctional agency and a county superior court, with no pattern of repeat buyers or concentration among issuing bodies. Colorado Department of Corrections issued two related IFBs in May 2026 (response dates May 20 and May 23, 2026; public bid opening May 19 and May 26, 2026 respectively), while Los Angeles Superior Court issued one RFQ in April 2026 (response date May 7, 2026). The geographic spread is limited to Colorado and California based on recent postings. The mismatch between the code's Inconel bolted plate assembly scope and the actual commodity purchases—rolled aluminum and wire shelving—suggests either miscoding by the issuing bodies or that the code has shifted in practice. Business development professionals should verify whether Inconel bolted plate assembly procurement activity exists elsewhere in state and local markets before committing development resources to this code.
