UNSPSC 41104133: Umbilical cord blood collector

Collection container utilized for the collection of fetal cord blood and/or umbilical cord tissue for general purpose and/or cryogenic stem cell storage

UNSPSC 41104133 Umbilical cord blood collector (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single relevant recent opportunity is the State of Nebraska, Department of Administrative Services, State Purchasing Bureau's ITB 125399 OR for DNA Database Buccal Collection Kits, due July 24, 2026, which calls for collection devices and associated consumables (envelopes, gloves, fingerprint strips, evidence seals, and shipping materials) for the Nebraska State Patrol Crime Laboratory. The kits must include the EasiCollect Plus Collection Device (WB120472) and meet chain-of-custody standards for DNA evidence handling. The State estimates annual usage of approximately 7,500 kits per year under an initial four-year term with four optional one-year renewal periods. Pricing is firm for the first year; subsequent renewals allow price increases not to exceed six percent with 120 days' notice. The contract is non-exclusive, and the State reserves the right to source the same or similar goods from other vendors. Delivery is required within forty-five calendar days of order receipt, F.O.B. destination, with fifteen percent late-delivery penalties for shipments exceeding that window.

The second opportunity in the source — Orange County, Florida's bridge replacement project (Y26-742, ITB due July 7, 2026, estimated cost $6,202,246.05) — is unrelated to umbilical cord blood collection and appears to have been miscoded. Nebraska is the only state showing recent relevant activity under this code. Umbilical cord blood collection kits for banking or research purposes remain absent from visible recent state and local solicitations, suggesting the code either receives infrequent purchasing attention at the state and local level or is not the primary classification for such acquisitions when they do occur.
