UNSPSC 48111403: Foreign currency exchange machines

UNSPSC 48111403 Foreign currency exchange machines (Commodity) encompasses coin validators, money order machines, and currency-counting equipment that state and local governments deploy in transit systems, revenue-collection offices, and service facilities. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing rebuilt coin validators for transit fare collection, money order dispensing equipment for DMV operations, and high-speed currency counters for treasurer offices. The issuing bodies include transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority), state administrative agencies (Illinois Secretary of State), cities and counties (City of Indianapolis and Marion County), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple jurisdictions (Sourcewell on behalf of law enforcement agencies across Washington state and beyond).

Activity under the code spans Washington state, Illinois, Indiana, and Texas, with significant cooperative-purchasing leverage through Sourcewell. Recent opportunities include DART's Blanket Purchase Order for rebuilt Coinco Guardian 6000 XL coin validators with a response date of May 6, 2026, requiring vendor experience with OEM repair, 21-day repair cycles, and FOB Destination pricing; the Illinois Secretary of State's Request for Quote for money order machines at 10–12 DMV facilities closing April 3, 2026, with award based on lowest per-transaction fee through June 30, 2029; the City of Indianapolis and Marion County's Informal Request for Quote for seven JetScan 4065 ES currency counters due March 11, 2026, with 30-day delivery and one-year warranty; and Sourcewell's cooperative law enforcement equipment RFP #061626 closing June 16, 2026, supporting thousands of public entities across multiple states and Canada. None of the solicitations identify set-aside restrictions, and payment structures range from flat repair rates to per-transaction fees to equipment purchases with maintenance included.
