UNSPSC 31361701: Aluminum riveted plate assemblies

UNSPSC 31361701 Aluminum riveted plate assemblies (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code's name describes fabricated aluminum subassemblies, yet recent opportunities tagged to this code involve raw aluminum materials—tubing, sheet stock, and coil for manufacturing—rather than finished riveted assemblies. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB IW257847 in July 2026 for raw aluminum tubing with a July 24, 2026 response date, and the State of Maine Department of Administrative and Financial Services solicited virgin aluminum substrate (Alloy 3003-H12 coil) for license plate manufacturing through RFQ 29B 26022400000000000207 with an April 3, 2026 due date. Both solicitations target input materials, not assembled products. Additional opportunities posted under this code—including construction repairs, signage blanks, and fire hydrants—fall outside the aluminum riveted plate assembly category entirely and suggest misclassification at the point of posting.

The issuing bodies are scattered across state departments and local jurisdictions, with no repeat buyers evident in the recent window. Activity appears concentrated in Texas (TDCJ, TEA amendments) and Maine (motor vehicle license plate stock), with isolated Florida and Georgia municipal opportunities unrelated to the code's intended scope. The absence of recent, aligned solicitations for actual riveted aluminum assemblies limits actionable market intelligence; firms targeting this code should monitor state purchasing platforms for reclassified or correctly tagged opportunities in aerospace, transportation, and manufacturing supply chains where such subassemblies see regular demand.
