UNSPSC 41113635: Calibrated resistance measuring equipment

UNSPSC 41113635 Calibrated resistance measuring equipment is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses a broader range of electrical test and measurement instruments state and local governments purchase for operational and maintenance use. Recent solicitations under this code show state and local buyers acquiring digital watt meters, motorola radios with accessories, and laboratory and research equipment including testing and measuring devices—suggesting the code captures instrumentation for field operations, emergency services, and institutional research programs rather than narrowly scoped resistance measurement alone. Issuing bodies include county sheriffs' offices, state transportation departments, university procurement offices, and regional port authorities, reflecting procurement across law enforcement, infrastructure maintenance, higher education, and transportation administration.

Activity concentrates in Texas and California. The Texas Department of Transportation posted an RFQ on May 15, 2026, for digital watt meters with carrying cases for Austin District operations; the County of Santa Clara (California) issued an RFQ on June 9, 2026, for Motorola radios and accessories for the Office of the Sheriff with response due June 17, 2026. Texas Tech University released an RFP on May 4, 2026, for laboratory and specialty research equipment including testing and measuring devices, with proposals due April 30, 2026, evaluated on best value with contract pricing firm for twenty-four months. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey issued an IFB on April 21, 2026, for fiber optic and low-voltage communications cabling infrastructure services with bids due May 19, 2026, and an estimated base-period cost of $1,063,819.78 across three years—though this opportunity, while tagged under the code, addresses cabling installation and maintenance rather than calibrated measurement equipment and represents a mismatch to the code's nominal scope.
