UNSPSC 11101912: Iron ore lumps

A type of refined iron ore sized to meet market demand.

UNSPSC 11101912 Iron ore lumps is a Commodity code that nominally describes raw iron ore extraction products; however, recent state and local opportunities show minimal alignment with this classification. The three most recent opportunities tagged to this code involve irrigation system installation (City of DeBary, Florida), structural metals supply (City of Fort Worth, Texas), and law enforcement equipment procurement (Sourcewell cooperative on behalf of multiple Washington counties and other jurisdictions). None of these solicitations concern iron ore lumps or related extraction commodities. The mismatch suggests that this code sees little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement, or that tagging errors have obscured the actual scope of work being bought under it.

Without recent opportunities that genuinely match the code's commodity definition, no reliable picture of issuing-body types, geographic concentration, or active vendor demand can be drawn from the current record. State and local procurement professionals should verify code alignment directly with issuing bodies or procurement databases before investing effort in this category, as the available opportunities do not support a credible market characterization for iron ore lumps procurement.
