UNSPSC 41111529: Electronic weight scale

A digital weighing scale is the most accurate and precise analog front-end (AFE) instrument that uses force sensors to measure the load of an object.

UNSPSC 41111529 Electronic weight scale is a Commodity code that encompasses mechanical, electronic, and hydrostatic weighing systems and related equipment used across municipal and county operations. State and local governments procure these scales for diverse functions including vehicle load measurement, facilities management calibration, waste transfer and landfill operations, water utilities, police and animal services facilities, and public works infrastructure. The mix of issuing bodies includes cities, counties, regional transit authorities, and state departments; the City of Dallas and City of Tucson have posted multiple solicitations under related weighing and measurement codes in the past six months, suggesting sustained demand from larger municipal governments. Recent activity shows solicitations for wheel load scales, comprehensive maintenance and calibration services for existing equipment, and specialized bus wash equipment installation.

Recent opportunities reflect geographic activity concentrated in Texas, Florida, and California. The City of Dallas issued a Request for Competitive Sealed Proposal (BYZ2600029777) on March 12, 2026, due April 24, 2026, for a three-year ID/IQ contract for maintenance and calibration of mechanical, hydrostatic, and electronic weighing systems serving Sanitation Services, Dallas Police, Water Utilities, and Animal Services departments, with a pre-proposal conference on March 24, 2026.
