UNSPSC 41103710: Orbital shaking water baths

UNSPSC 41103710 Orbital shaking water baths (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The two most recent opportunities tagged to this code—a City of LaGrange, Georgia chemical bid for water and wastewater treatment (May 2026) and a City of Palm Bay, Florida laboratory testing services ITB (April 2026)—are soliciting treatment chemicals and analytical testing services, not orbital shaking water bath equipment. The code's abstract product name does not match the actual goods and services being procured under it in the state and local market right now.

Geographic activity centers on Florida and Georgia based on the two available records, but the mismatch between the code and the solicited work limits the utility of this characterization. The LaGrange solicitation (IFB due June 8, 2026) procures eight chemical items for water and wastewater treatment plants on a firm-price, 12-month basis with F.O.B. LaGrange delivery; the Palm Bay solicitation (ITB with March 2026 deadline, now closed) covered 188 line items of laboratory testing across water, wastewater, groundwater, and pretreatment programs, with unit prices ranging from $0 to $425 per analysis. Issuing bodies are municipal utilities in mid-sized jurisdictions. The code appears to carry tagging misalignment in state and local procurement databases, and vendors pursuing equipment sales under this Commodity classification should verify actual sourcing activity before investing business development resources.
