UNSPSC 30266211: Cobalt ingot

Ingot made from cobalt

UNSPSC 30266211 Cobalt ingot is a Commodity code that nominally covers raw cobalt metal materials, but state and local procurement activity under this code does not align with its abstract scope. The single recent state and local opportunity posted under the code is a culvert replacement and street restoration project with no connection to cobalt procurement — the City of Huntsville, Texas issued IFB NO2633 on August 20, 2026, for removal and replacement of approximately 352 feet of collapsed culvert on 16th Street, including reinforced concrete pipe installation, asphalt pavement restoration, utility coordination with AT&T, traffic control, stormwater maintenance, and site restoration. The mismatch suggests that either the code was misapplied to this opportunity or that state and local governments are not actively procuring cobalt ingot through standard public contracting channels at this time.

The source provides no evidence of sustained state and local procurement activity under the cobalt ingot code. The single tagged opportunity is a civil infrastructure project in Huntsville, Texas, with no apparent relevance to cobalt materials, leaving the actual market scope and issuing-body pattern under this code unclear from recent activity. If cobalt ingot procurement occurs in state and local contracting, it either does not flow through formal bid processes captured in this dataset or is tagged under codes with stronger material-science alignment. The Huntsville culvert project, an IFB with response due August 27, 2026, carries a 60-calendar-day completion requirement and a $2,000-per-day liquidated-damages clause; award was anticipated for September 2026, subject to City Council approval and budget availability.
