UNSPSC 31381127: Cast coated isotropic samarium cobalt magnet

Cast isotropic samarium magnet that has been coated

UNSPSC 31381127 Cast coated isotropic samarium cobalt magnet, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single sourced opportunity—a Texas A&M University System ITB for stainless steel diaphragm plates posted October 12, 2026, with bids due October 28, 2026—addresses a mechanical component unrelated to the cobalt-samarium magnetic material the code nominally covers. The mismatch suggests either misclassification by the issuing body or sparse legitimate activity under this code within the state and local market.

The Texas A&M procurement is administered through the AggieBid portal with all submissions, addenda, and Q&A flowing through that system; contact is Sterling Crowdus at soprocurement@tamus.edu or the vendor-support inbox vendorhelp@tamu.edu. Quantities, pricing, contract duration, anticipated award date, site visits, and pre-bid conference information are not disclosed. No set-aside or preference program is noted. Beyond this single opportunity, the source does not support characterization of repeat buyers, geographic concentration, or pattern of work under the code.
