UNSPSC 41113024: Hydrometers

UNSPSC 41113024 Hydrometers is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure water measurement and monitoring instruments, including level sensors, controllers, and related analytical equipment for water treatment, wastewater treatment, and regulatory compliance programs. Recent solicitations show municipal water and wastewater utilities buying flowmeters and level-sensing products for facility operations and laboratory testing services that support water quality monitoring. Issuing bodies include city procurement offices (Bradenton, Palm Bay) and county health departments (Santa Clara), typically acquiring these devices and services for compliance with state and federal environmental regulations. The work is technical and performance-critical, often requiring manufacturer-specific products with exclusive distribution agreements or multi-year service contracts bundling testing, calibration, sampling, and analytical work.

Florida cities dominate recent activity under this code. The City of Bradenton posted a Notice of Intent to Award on July 1, 2026 (response due July 1, 2026) for WRF level sensors and controllers from The Avanti Company, McCrometer's authorized distributor for Florida, Alabama, and Georgia since 1990; the City reserves the right to open this sole-source procurement to competition if respondents demonstrate equivalent capability. The City of Palm Bay issued Invitation to Bid 19ITB26 (response deadline March 17, 2026) for comprehensive laboratory testing services across three wastewater treatment facilities, two water treatment facilities, groundwater monitoring wells, and industrial pretreatment programs—188 line items spanning water testing, wastewater testing, industrial pretreatment analysis, and courier services, with unit prices ranging from $0 for calculated field measurements to $425 for specialized analyses such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia testing. The Santa Clara County Public Health Lab posted a Request for Information on April 7, 2026 (response due April 22, 2026) for a lab information management system replacement to support public health laboratory workflows. Recent Palm Bay expenditures totaled $66,360 in 2024 and $95,440 in 2025 on laboratory services, signaling consistent municipal investment in water quality monitoring infrastructure.
