UNSPSC 32141014: Tetrode tubes

UNSPSC 32141014 Tetrode tubes is a Commodity code with minimal recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes vacuum tube technology, but the recent opportunities tagged under it do not reflect this scope. Northside Independent School District (NISD) in San Antonio, Texas issued IFB2026118 on September 1, 2026, a broad solicitation for electronic equipment, parts, repairs, rentals, and services with a response date of September 24, 2026 — a general-purpose procurement that does not center on tetrode tubes. Sourcewell, the Minnesota local government cooperative, posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, for law enforcement equipment serving thousands of public entities across multiple states, with a June 16, 2026 deadline — again, unrelated to the code's nominal scope. The mismatch between the code's technical name and the work being purchased suggests tagging misalignment rather than active market demand for tetrode tubes at the state and local level.

The geographic spread reflects the two opportunities only: Texas (NISD) and a multi-state cooperative structure anchored in Minnesota and spanning Washington state counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, Yakima) plus broader U.S. and Canadian jurisdictions. No additional recent opportunities under this code appear in the source material, and no pattern of repeat buyers or concentrated procurement activity emerges. State and local government does not appear to be soliciting tetrode tubes as a distinct commodity class in current posted activity.
