UNSPSC 11101613: Tungsten or wolfram ore

UNSPSC 11101613 Tungsten or wolfram ore (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity aligned with the code's scope. The three posted state and local opportunities record no solicitations for tungsten or wolfram ore extraction, processing, or supply. The City of Fort Worth RFP 26-0222 (posted Jun 24, 2026, due Jul 23, 2026) seeks aluminum, iron, rebar, and steel on an as-needed basis — ferrous and nonferrous metals outside the tungsten commodity. Sourcewell's RFP #061626 (posted May 12, 2026, due Jun 16, 2026) addresses law enforcement equipment across multiple Washington counties and nationwide participating entities — unrelated to ore procurement. The City of DeBary's Bid 03-15 covers irrigation system installation, also outside the tungsten scope.

No state and local governments are currently soliciting tungsten or wolfram ore under this code in the available data. The mismatch between the commodity definition and the posted opportunities suggests either minimal procurement activity under 11101613 or systematic misclassification by issuing bodies. Until solicitations specifically naming tungsten, wolfram, or tungsten compounds appear in state and local RFPs, RFQs, or ITBs, this code presents no actionable market signal for business development targeting public sector buyers.
