UNSPSC 12141906: Arsenic As

UNSPSC 12141906 Arsenic As is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal scope. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code show a mismatch: two are for welding materials, supplies, and equipment (flat bars, sheets, tubes, rods, tungsten electrodes) solicited by Collin College and Collin County Community College District in Texas, and one is for occupational medical surveillance services solicited by the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of the Washington State Ferries. Neither welding consumables nor occupational health services fall within the chemical-element taxonomy the code nominally represents. The welding opportunities constitute the bulk of recent activity, suggesting either a classification error in how the issuing bodies or procurement management systems tagged these solicitations, or a gap between the code's intended scope and its actual use in state and local systems.

The two welding-materials contracts each span three years with estimated annual volumes around $400,000 and multi-vendor award structures; Collin College and Collin County Community College District both emphasize total cost of ownership, references, and Texas vendor status in their evaluation criteria. The medical surveillance RFP from Washington State Ferries, due October 9, 2026, requires occupational-medicine board certification and spans 14 ferry terminals across Washington State. Without additional opportunities actually aligned to arsenic procurement or chemical-element sourcing, this code shows little actionable recent activity for firms pursuing state and local contracts in its stated commodity class.
