UNSPSC 31381152: Castanisotropic barium ferrite magnet assembly

Anisotropic barium ferrite magnet assembly that has been cast

UNSPSC 31381152 Castanisotropic barium ferrite magnet assembly is a Commodity code that shows limited recent activity in state and local procurement. The single recent opportunity posted under this code — a Texas A&M University System ITB for stainless steel diaphragm plates due October 28, 2026 — does not match the code's stated scope of magnetic assemblies. The solicitation requests metal plates, not magnet assemblies, indicating either a coding mismatch in the procurement system or an administrative error in how the opportunity was tagged. State and local governments buying under this code, if activity does occur, would typically be higher-education institutions, research facilities, or specialized-manufacturing entities requiring ferrite magnet components for equipment or instrumentation.

The geographic footprint is limited to Texas based on the single available posting. The Texas A&M University System issued ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0547 through its AggieBid portal, with all vendor registration, Q&A, addenda, and bid submission handled exclusively within that system. No quantities, pricing, contract duration, site visits, or pre-bid conferences were disclosed. Prospective vendors must register through AggieBid and direct questions to Sterling Crowdus at soprocurement@tamus.edu or use the portal's Q&A function. The code appears to see sparse state and local procurement activity; firms pursuing this segment should monitor higher-education and research-equipment procurement channels for future opportunities and clarify code assignments with issuing bodies before bid preparation to avoid misaligned scope.
