UNSPSC 11101532: Peridot

A gem-quality forsteritic olivine. The chemical composition is Mg, Fe 2SiO4, with Mg in greater quantities than Fe.

UNSPSC 11101532 Peridot is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure peridot gemstones and related materials under this code, though recent activity shows limited solicitation volume in state and local contracting channels. The code appears underutilized relative to broader construction and materials procurement — the most recent opportunities tagged to this code span irrigation system installation, structural steel and metals supply, and law enforcement equipment, none of which align directly with peridot procurement. The mismatch suggests either misclassification in source records or that peridot procurement falls below the threshold of routine state and local capital or operational spending in available databases.

Recent opportunities nominally tagged to this code originate from municipal purchasing offices and cooperative purchasing platforms: the City of DeBary, Florida posted a competitive bid for park irrigation improvements (Solicitation 0315, due April 10, 2015, $90,000 engineer's estimate); the City of Fort Worth issued RFP 26-0222 on June 24, 2026 for aluminum, iron, rebar, and steel materials with a 30 percent small business participation goal and July 23, 2026 response deadline; and Sourcewell, the Minnesota local government cooperative, posted RFP 061626 on May 12, 2026 for law enforcement equipment on behalf of participating counties and public entities across Washington, Minnesota, and other jurisdictions, with a June 16, 2026 submission deadline. No relevant peridot procurement activity appears in these records. Practitioners should note that this code shows limited documented state and local solicitation volume under its actual scope and may warrant reclassification inquiry or verification of commodity mapping accuracy before pursuing opportunities labeled under it.
