NIGP 17516: Cocktails (Solutions), Liquid Scintillation

NIGP 17516 Cocktails (Solutions), Liquid Scintillation is an Item code under which state and local governments procure specialized chemical solutions and related compounds for laboratory, analytical, and industrial applications. Based on recent solicitation activity, the code captures indefinite-quantity and as-needed supply arrangements for chemical products including copper sulfate in crystalline and liquid forms, typically issued as RFQ or RFP notices with vendor panels rather than single-award contracts.

Pasco County, Florida posted the only recent opportunity under this code—RFQFP261004, an RFQ for large copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate on an as-needed basis with proposals due June 26, 2026. The county indicated intent to contract with one or more vendors under an indefinite-quantity arrangement. Activity under this code appears limited; no additional recent state or local opportunities are present in the current dataset. The sparse solicitation record suggests either narrow demand for the specific chemical formulations NIGP 17516 describes or minimal recent purchasing volume among state and local jurisdictions in this commodity class.
