UNSPSC 30266214: Bismuth ingot

Ingot made from bismuth

UNSPSC 30266214 Bismuth ingot is a Commodity code that nominally describes the purchase of bismuth metal in ingot form, but the recent state and local procurement record shows no activity aligned with that scope. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—City of Huntsville, Texas IFB NO2633 for culvert replacement and pavement restoration on 16th Street—involves civil infrastructure work with no bismuth procurement component. The work scope encompasses removal and replacement of 352 feet of collapsed reinforced concrete pipe culvert, asphalt pavement restoration, utility coordination with AT&T, traffic control planning, and stormwater maintenance, with a 60-calendar-day completion window subject to liquidated damages of $2,000 per day. This mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the municipal procurement database or a classification anomaly; the code does not reflect actual bismuth purchasing activity in state and local government procurement right now.

The City of Huntsville IFB (sealed bids due August 27, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. Central Time) required a mandatory site visit on August 12, 2026, and included two addenda (issued August 17 and August 20, 2026) that bidders had to acknowledge under penalty of disqualification. Award was anticipated for September 2026 pending City Council approval and budget availability. Bidders faced standard bonding and insurance requirements—a 10 percent bid bond, a performance bond for the full contract amount from a certified Texas surety, and commercial general liability of $1 million per occurrence with $2 million aggregate. Based on the single recent record, this code does not appear to be an active procurement category for state and local governments.
