UNSPSC 12141907: Boron B

UNSPSC 12141907 Boron B, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes boron chemical purchases, but the three recent opportunities posted under it do not align with that scope. Two opportunities from Collin College and Collin County Community College District (both in Texas, posted July 2026) are for welding materials, supplies, and equipment — flat bars, sheets, tubes, pipes, welding rods, and tungsten electrodes — covering three-year contracts with estimated annual volumes around $400,000 each and multi-vendor award structures. A third opportunity from the Washington State Department of Transportation, posted August 2026, solicits occupational medical surveillance services for Washington State Ferries personnel across 14 ferry locations, including baseline, periodic, and exit medical examinations performed by occupational-medicine-board-certified physicians. None of these activities align with boron procurement.

The mismatch between the code's chemical-products scope and the recent opportunities suggests either misclassification by the issuing bodies or that boron B sees negligible genuine procurement activity at the state and local level. The education, transit, and marine-operations sectors represented in these three opportunities do not appear to be active boron buyers. Business development professionals should confirm whether boron procurement opportunities exist under alternate codes or whether state and local demand for boron products is concentrated outside the visible procurement channels tracked here. The code warrants monitoring for future activity clarification, but current signals indicate limited pursuit opportunity.
