UNSPSC 41101805: Fluxmeters

UNSPSC 41101805 Fluxmeters is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure scientific measuring and testing equipment through this code, though the single recent opportunity shows a broader research and development goods procurement where fluxmeters would sit alongside other laboratory instruments. Texas Tech University issued RFP 2026-1190 in May 2026 for research and development goods and services, seeking suppliers of laboratory equipment including microscopes, centrifuges, chromatography systems, fume hoods, and specialty research instruments to support the university's testing and measuring capabilities. The solicitation required proposers to demonstrate measurable benefits such as local representation, discounts, e-commerce capabilities, or warranty enhancements, and mandated compliance with Texas's Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) program. Evaluation weighted demonstrated ability to fulfill needs at 50 percent, with compliance, qualifications, financial value, and value-added options split among the remainder.

The code shows minimal recent activity in state and local procurement databases. The single identified opportunity originated from a higher-education research institution in Texas, with proposals due April 30, 2026, through the TechBid online system. The RFP indicated a maximum initial four-year contract term with up to four one-year renewal options, firm pricing for twenty-four months, and potential annual increases capped at three percent thereafter. No specific award value or budget range was disclosed in the solicitation documents. Suppliers pursuing this code should note that contract pricing, insurance requirements ($1,000,000 general liability and auto liability minimums), cybersecurity compliance (NIST 800-53 controls, TX-RAMP certification, 99.99% uptime), and HUB subcontracting obligations drive qualification thresholds in recent state and local procurements of research equipment.
