UNSPSC 41111981: Blood utilization management system

Specialized system including software utilized for tracking blood component therapy distribution and utilization

UNSPSC 41111981 Blood utilization management system is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—blood utilization management systems—does not match the products and services currently being solicited under this code designation. Recent opportunities tagged to this code involve sewer pipeline inspection equipment, educational instructional resources, laboratory analytical instruments, and scientific equipment, none of which relate to blood management or transfusion services.

The recent-opportunity block records solicitations from the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management (color video pipeline inspection systems and sewer cleaning equipment under IFB), Klein Independent School District in Harris County, Texas (career technical education and advanced academics instructional resources under RFP), Texas A&M University System (laboratory and scientific equipment including a bore scanner and lock-in amplifier under ITB), and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer system under IFB). This mismatch between the code's stated purpose and actual recent procurement activity suggests either miscoding in the jurisdiction's internal systems or that the code is rarely used for its intended commodity. Business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities nominally tagged to this code, as the recent record does not support meaningful activity in blood utilization management systems at state and local level.
