UNSPSC 12141916: Iodine I

UNSPSC 12141916 Iodine I is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The three opportunities posted in the recent-opportunities block—occupational medical surveillance services from Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington State Ferries), and welding materials and supplies from Collin College and Collin County Community College District in Texas—fall outside the scope of iodine procurement. The code nominally describes elemental iodine or iodine-based chemical products, which do not align with medical examination contracting, welding rod and electrode procurement, or the occupational-health and materials-supply categories these solicitations actually represent. State and local procurement databases appear to have misclassified or mislabeled these opportunities under the iodine code.

No state or local solicitations for iodine, iodine compounds, or iodine-containing products appear in the recent-opportunities record. Firms pursuing business in chemical or pharmaceutical supply categories should verify the actual UNSPSC codes assigned to active procurements rather than rely on code 12141916, which does not surface relevant buying activity at this time.
