UNSPSC 41113403: Beta counters

UNSPSC 41113403 Beta counters is a Commodity code that in practice covers radiation detection and measurement equipment, though the most recent state and local activity under this code shows a significant mismatch between the nominal scope and actual procurement. State and local governments soliciting under this code include county governments and specialized districts with environmental, water-quality, or public-health missions. The work being procured reflects demand for chemical reagents and supplies used in laboratory analysis and environmental monitoring rather than beta-counter instruments themselves — a gap worth noting when evaluating code relevance for sellers of traditional radiation-detection hardware.

Pasco County, Florida posted the most recent identified opportunity under this code. On June 3, 2026, Pasco County issued RFQ 261004 soliciting large copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate on an as-needed basis with proposals due June 26, 2026, under an indefinite-quantity arrangement with one or more selected vendors. No estimated contract value, set-asides, or contract term was specified in the solicitation notice. The geographic spread of recent activity is limited; the source reports only Florida-based procurement under this code in the recent window. Sellers of beta counters, radiation dosimeters, or related detection instrumentation should investigate whether this code remains actively used for traditional hardware or whether activity has shifted entirely to chemical supplies and laboratory reagents under misclassified notices.
