UNSPSC 41105314: Gel documentation systems

UNSPSC 41105314 Gel documentation systems is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses laboratory information management systems (LIMS) and instructional science equipment sourced by state and local educational and public health agencies. Recent solicitations show the code capturing purchases of specialized lab software and associated hardware required to manage workflows in public health laboratory settings, alongside classroom-grade scientific documentation and analysis equipment for career and technical education programs. State and local governments use this code when procuring systems that enable specimen tracking, test result management, and regulatory compliance in clinical laboratory environments, as well as gel electrophoresis documentation hardware and software for teaching advanced science and biotechnology coursework.

Issuing bodies include independent school districts and county public health departments. Klein Independent School District in Harris County, Texas posted RFP #26-101 on April 17, 2026, seeking Career Technical Education and Advanced Academics instructional resources across 17 CTE program areas including health sciences, with a June 5, 2026 response deadline; the County of Santa Clara issued an RFI on April 7, 2026 for a Public Health Lab Information Management Solution Replacement, with an April 22, 2026 deadline. Recent activity concentrates in Texas and California, with broader representation across counties and school districts nationwide. Both opportunities were structured as competitive procurements open to all qualified vendors meeting insurance, licensing, and regulatory compliance requirements, with the Klein ISD solicitation encouraging use of HUB, MWBE, and SBE vendors as prime contractors and subcontractors.
