UNSPSC 41113813: Standard aggregate

An aggregate sample that is defined for several properties to compare and test the capability and properties of aggregates.

UNSPSC 41113813 Standard aggregate, a Commodity code, describes materials and testing equipment state and local governments buy to support construction, utility infrastructure, and transportation projects. Recent solicitations show wide disparity in what is actually procured under this code: the Texas Department of Transportation is purchasing specialized soil compaction and analysis equipment (a Proctor Soil Compactor with Soil Analyzer); the North Texas Municipal Water District is seeking aggregates for water infrastructure; the Michigan Department of Transportation awarded a truck-mounted Cone Penetrometer Test sounding unit for geotechnical investigation; and the City of Augusta and Henry County are procuring on-call materials and field testing services for construction projects. The issuing bodies span state departments of transportation, municipal utility districts, county governments, and city utilities. While the code nominally describes standard aggregate—graded stone materials for roadbeds and foundations—the recent opportunities tagged to this code include soil testing equipment, testing services, and specialized geotechnical instrumentation that diverge significantly from the code's abstract scope.

Activity is concentrated in Texas and Georgia, with additional recent solicitations from Florida (Keys Energy Services electrical insulating oil testing), Michigan (MDOT geotechnical equipment), and Georgia (Henry County field testing services). The North Texas Municipal Water District RFQ 26-190B (due October 7, 2026) seeks aggregates but provides minimal scope detail. The Texas Department of Transportation's solicitation 601340000067218 (responses due October 27, 2026) calls for a Proctor Soil Compactor with Soil Analyzer, registered vendors on the Centralized Master Bidders List, and submission via Bonfire Hub. The Michigan Department of Transportation awarded RFP 260000002268 to Applied Research Associates, Inc., for a truck-mounted CPT sounding unit at $1,011,529.00 (notice of intent issued July 22, 2026). The City of Augusta RFP 26-176 (due September 11, 2026) and Henry County RFQ 27-08 (due September 9, 2026) both request on-call geotechnical and materials testing with firm pricing structures, GDOT prequalification requirements, and state-level professional licensing. The code shows recent activity but limited relevance to traditional aggregate supply—most opportunities tagged here involve specialized testing services, equipment procurement, and geotechnical investigation rather than bulk material supply.
