UNSPSC 41111519: Crane scale

A scale that measures the object with the scale attached on the ceiling to measure the weight. The display part is digitalized and widely used in the construction sites and industrial settings.

UNSPSC 41111519 Crane scale is a Commodity code representing equipment weighing and measurement instruments used by state and local governments. However, the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show minimal relevant activity — the code appears to be applied inconsistently across jurisdiction procurement systems, with most recent solicitations addressing services and goods substantially unrelated to weighing scales. Of the opportunities in the dataset, only two directly address crane-related work: a County of Orange (California) IFB for crane rental services with operators (posted June 26, 2026, bids due May 7, 2026) and a Gainesville Regional Utilities (Florida) ITB for annual crane rental service (posted June 15, 2026, bids due July 1, 2026). The remainder—janitorial services, document destruction, title searches, aggregate materials, litter cleanup, ornamental plants, water filtration trailers, structural engineering design, and crane repair—are unrelated to weighing scales and reflect either miscoding or a broader interpretation of "crane" equipment that diverges from the commodity definition.

The two substantively relevant opportunities show demand for crane rental and operation services across utility and public works functions rather than for scales themselves. The County of Orange procurement seeks 14-ton through 90-ton hydraulic cranes with certified operators for stormwater lift station work, dam gate maintenance, and miscellaneous lifting—a three-year firm-fixed-price contract not to exceed $1.1 million with an Orange County Local Small Business and Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) price deduction available. Gainesville Regional Utilities similarly solicits mobile hydraulic, boom truck, rough terrain, and crawler cranes ranging 15 to 300+ tons for utility infrastructure construction, maintenance, and emergency response over three years with firm pricing and NCCCO operator certification required. Both contracts emphasize certified operators, OSHA compliance, emergency response capability, and commercial liability insurance requirements. The code as currently applied in state and local procurement systems does not reliably identify crane-scale opportunities; firms pursuing weighing equipment sales should monitor aggregate-materials procurement, transfer-station operations, and utility supply categories where scales would be functionally relevant but coded differently.
