UNSPSC 40141744: Drain bowls

UNSPSC 40141744 Drain bowls (Commodity) shows minimal state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The three recent opportunities tagged with this code procure welding materials and supplies, Career Technical Education resources, and natural gas utility infrastructure work—none of which involve drain bowls as a primary commodity or service line. Collin College and Collin County Community College District each posted three-year ITB solicitations for welding materials, supplies, and equipment (FY2024ITB020 and FY2024ITB024, respectively), seeking comprehensive ranges of welding rods, electrodes, tubes, pipes, and related consumables with estimated annual volumes around $400,000 per institution on a multi-vendor award basis. Klein Independent School District issued an RFP for Career Technical Education and Advanced Academics resources across 17 CTE program areas including welding, seeking instructional supplies, equipment, and support services. The City of Leesburg, Florida posted an IFB for natural gas main abandonment and installation work on a utility relocation project. None of these solicitations reference drain bowls or plumbing fixtures as a commodity or component.

The recent-opportunities block reflects activity in Texas (Collin College district, Klein ISD in Harris County) and Florida (City of Leesburg), but the mismatch between code title and actual procurement scope suggests either a tagging error in the source data or that drain bowls see no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity. A business development professional should verify the code's accuracy before investing pursuit resources, as the opportunities present do not align with plumbing or drainage fixture supply.
