UNSPSC 41111647: Hole gauge

A gauge that may precisely measure the inner diameter of small caliber in conjunction with the external diameter micrometer.

UNSPSC 41111647 Hole gauge is a Commodity code that in recent state and local practice encompasses precision measurement and testing equipment far broader than the code name suggests. Illinois Department of Transportation, the University of Texas at Austin, Marion County Board of County Commissioners, and the City of Philadelphia have solicited high-precision laser scanning systems, total stations with metrology accessories, motorcycle radar systems, and general inspection supplies under this code. The work includes metrology-grade instruments for pavement analysis, geodetic surveying, and law enforcement applications, with technical specifications requiring ISO 17025 accreditation, VDI/VDE certification, and vendor-provided training and warranty support. Issuing bodies span state transportation departments, higher-education institutions, county sheriffs' offices, and city procurement bureaus, indicating fragmented demand across multiple government sectors rather than concentration in a single jurisdiction type or mission area.

Activity is concentrated in Illinois and Texas, with one-off opportunities in Florida and Pennsylvania. The Illinois Department of Transportation posted two rebids for high-precision handheld 3D laser scanning systems—one in September 2026 (due September 25) and an earlier version in August 2026 (due August 18)—both specifying 0.025 mm minimum accuracy, blue laser technology with 30+ lines, and ISO 10360 / VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 certification from accredited labs. The University of Texas at Austin solicited Leica TS-60 total stations and metrology equipment under ITB 721-26091 in June 2026 (due June 30) for precision geodetic surveys at McDonald Observatory. The City of Philadelphia issued a micro purchase for general inspection supplies (Firm Limit contract, cap $40,000, due May 27, 2026), and the City of Pennsylvania requested bids on a 150' laser distance meter as a micro purchase (due September 8, 2026). Marion County Procurement Services posted a sole-source procurement for a Stalker 2X Motorcycle Radar System (due July 13, 2026). The code shows limited match to its nominal scope; actual recent demand centers on specialized optical and radar metrology systems rather than hole gauges.
