UNSPSC 26142306: Shielded containers for radiation protection

UNSPSC 26142306 Shielded containers for radiation protection is a Commodity-tier code that shows limited recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Clackamas County, Oregon's Bid #2026-55 Armored Coating Project (IFB, due August 11, 2026)—involves construction services for armored coating work with an engineer's estimate of $225,000, not the procurement of shielded containers or radiation-protection equipment that the code name suggests. The mismatch between the code's abstract definition and the work actually being solicited indicates either a coding error in the posting or minimal recent state and local demand for shielded radiation-protection containers. No additional opportunities across other issuing bodies, states, or recent timeframes appear in the available record.

Activity under this code is concentrated in Oregon, with Clackamas County as the sole recent buyer. The county's armored coating project requires prevailing wage compliance under Oregon Revised Statutes, Good Faith Effort requirements targeting minority, women, and emerging small businesses, and standard bonding and insurance. Prospective bidders must register through OregonBuys and Bid Locker for electronic submission. The limited posting frequency and the disconnect between the code label and the actual work solicited suggest this code is either underutilized in state and local procurement or mislabeled in recent notices—a signal worth clarifying before pursuing opportunities under it.
