UNSPSC 40141916: Glass ducts or ductwork

Glass tubing, canal or passage by which fluid or gas is conveyed.

UNSPSC 40141916 Glass ducts or ductwork, a Commodity code, shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its scope. The four most recent opportunities tagged to this code consist of an administrative relocation notice from Williamson County (Texas), a law enforcement equipment cooperative purchasing RFP issued by Sourcewell on behalf of multiple Washington and other jurisdictions, a Preferred Contractor Network registration solicitation from the Orlando Utilities Commission (Florida) spanning 17 technical disciplines including HVAC/Duct Repair, and a sealed-bid ITB from Hillsborough County (Florida) for galvanized finished steel pallets. None of these solicitations call for glass ducts or ductwork procurement, and the mismatch suggests inconsistent tagging rather than active demand under the code.

The issuing bodies in the sample include a county purchasing department, a multi-state cooperative purchasing vehicle (Sourcewell), a municipal utility commission, and a county board of commissioners — representing diverse issuing-body types across Florida, Washington, and Texas. However, the absence of genuine glass ductwork opportunities and the predominance of unrelated scope (relocation notice, law enforcement equipment, HVAC services, and steel pallets) indicate that state and local buyers either do not procure glass ducts and ductwork through this code classification or do so rarely enough that recent activity does not surface. Vendors targeting this code should verify with procurement offices directly whether opportunities are recorded under an alternative UNSPSC code or whether demand is sporadic and better tracked through direct supplier relationships.
