UNSPSC 41103811: Orbital shakers

UNSPSC 41103811 Orbital shakers (Commodity) covers laboratory and industrial mixing equipment, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect orbital-shaker procurement. West Basin Municipal Water District solicited on-call pump and motor repair, rebuild, and replacement services across recycled water and pumping facilities in Los Angeles County under RFP RFPTH0143, and Pinellas County Utilities solicited Invent Mixer Parts & Accessories under ITQ 26-0647 in Florida. Neither opportunity is aligned with orbital shaker sales or service. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity; the tagging appears to reflect a classification mismatch rather than genuine procurement demand under the orbital-shaker scope.

The recent opportunities span two states — California and Florida — and represent different issuing bodies (a municipal water district and a county utility department). West Basin's pump-and-motor RFP, due October 1, 2026, at 2:00 PM, targets contractors with five years' minimum electric-motor repair experience, valid California Public Works Contractor Registration, and a local repair facility; the not-to-exceed contract value is $1,000,000 over a two-year initial term with a potential one-year extension, with preference points or price reductions available to SBEs, LBEs, and VOBEs. Pinellas County's ITQ for mixer parts, due June 30, 2026, references a prior blanket purchase agreement and includes performance across two Florida locations, though contract value and term details are not specified. Neither opportunity represents the product or service category implied by the UNSPSC code itself. Firms pursuing orbital-shaker sales or support to state and local buyers should monitor alternative codes or verify that future opportunities under 41103811 are accurately classified before investing in bid preparation.
