UNSPSC 41101709: Laboratory asphalt and concrete mixer

A mixer that is used for mixing the samples in a laboratory.

UNSPSC 41101709 Laboratory asphalt and concrete mixer is a Commodity code for equipment and parts used in water treatment and utility operations, though the recent state and local activity under this code shows little direct alignment with laboratory mixing equipment. West Basin Municipal Water District's October 2026 RFP for on-call pump and motor repair services and Pinellas County Utilities' June 2026 ITQ for mixer parts and accessories both fall under this code nominally, but neither procurement centers on laboratory-grade asphalt or concrete mixing apparatus. Instead, the opportunities reflect what state and local governments are actually buying under this classification: replacement parts, rebuild services, and maintenance support for industrial-scale pumping and mixing infrastructure serving water recycling and utility distribution networks. West Basin's scope encompasses electric motor and pump repair, rebuild, and replacement across eight recycled water and treatment facilities in Los Angeles County, with a $1,000,000 not-to-exceed over two years. Pinellas County Utilities' procurement targets mixer parts and accessories, likely for operational equipment at water treatment plants. Issuing bodies are primarily special-purpose water and utility districts rather than general state or local government procurement offices, and both opportunities carry set-aside provisions favoring small business, local business, and veteran-owned enterprises.

Activity under this code remains geographically sparse. The two recent opportunities span California (West Basin) and Florida (Pinellas County Utilities), suggesting scattered regional demand rather than concentrated procurement activity. West Basin's October 2026 RFP requires responses to service requests within five business days and delivery within one hour during business hours or twelve hours outside business hours, with comprehensive documentation, vibration analysis testing, and an eighteen-month warranty. Qualified contractors must demonstrate five years' experience in motor repair, maintain California Public Works Contractor Registration, provide five references, and operate a local repair facility. Pinellas County Utilities' June 2026 ITQ closed June 30, 2026, and references a prior blanket purchase agreement (BPA 457764) established under ITB 22-0279, suggesting continuation purchasing; the compressed six-day proposal window and non-competitive justification form indicate a potential renewal or limited-competition vehicle.
