UNSPSC 41114104: Seismic amplifiers

UNSPSC 41114104 Seismic amplifiers is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners' Invitation to Bid (ITB-26-00163) for Predictive Electrical and Mechanical Maintenance, due March 13, 2026—concerns vibration analysis, oil wear particle analysis, and condition-based monitoring services for water and wastewater infrastructure, not seismic amplification equipment. The solicitation calls for quarterly on-site vibration and oil analysis, 15 training sessions, and baseline asset data collection across water production facilities, wastewater treatment plants, reclaimed sites, and pumping stations operated by the County's Public Utilities Department. Personnel must hold minimum Category II Certified Vibration Analyst certification per ISO Standard 18436-2 accredited by ANSI. The five-year contract is valued at $578,490.00 total, with no incumbent named and no set-asides identified. Insurance requirements are substantial—$500,000 to $2,000,000 Commercial General Liability, $1,000,000 Professional Liability, $1,000,000 Cyber Liability, and additional coverage for auto, workers' compensation, fidelity bond, and D&O.

The code shows little relevant recent activity tied to actual seismic amplifier procurement. Hillsborough County is the sole issuing body appearing in recent records, and its opportunity addresses equipment condition monitoring rather than seismic measurement or amplification hardware. Geographic coverage is limited to Florida based on available data. The significant insurance and certification requirements, combined with the condition-monitoring focus of the sole posted opportunity, suggest that buyers treating this code for vibration-analysis services view it as a proxy for predictive maintenance rather than as a channel for seismic or acceleration-measurement instrumentation. Firms pursuing seismic amplifier sales should verify whether state and local procurement offices in target jurisdictions apply this code to equipment purchases or whether alternative UNSPSC classifications are more active for the actual instrumentation being solicited.
