UNSPSC 41114647: Slump tester

A tester that is used for concrete to measure the consistency of the concrete to make the appropriate concrete.

UNSPSC 41114647 Slump tester is a Commodity code. State and local governments use this code to tag solicitations for laboratory testing services, materials inspection, and equipment repair — but the recent opportunities show almost no alignment with the code's nominal scope. The eight recent opportunities posted between February and July 2026 include laboratory testing services for detained adults (Marion County, Oregon ITB), annual equipment repair contracts for clinical lab washers and sterilizers (Texas DSHS IFB), spectrophotometer replacement (City of Tampa RFQ), insulating oil testing for electrical substations (Lubbock Power & Light RFP), landscape architectural design services (Harris County Toll Road Authority RFSQ), sole-source technical support for an analyzer system (City of Orlando), DC charger maintenance for transit (Broward County ITB), construction materials testing and inspection (Town of Waterford, Connecticut RFP), lab information management system replacement (County of Santa Clara RFI), three-phase meter test board procurement (City of Ocala RFP), water well drilling and testing (City of Palm Bay RFP), servo-hydraulic fatigue testing equipment (Lamar University ITB), and lock-in amplifier procurement (Texas A&M University ITB). Only one — the Lubbock Power & Light insulating oil testing solicitation — involves actual laboratory testing aligned with diagnostics and condition assessment. The others span clinical lab services, materials testing and inspection, equipment sales and repairs, system implementation, and capital equipment procurement with no clear connection to concrete slump measurement or the cement and concrete testing workflow the UNSPSC code describes.

The code shows no coherent procurement pattern across issuing bodies. No state department, county, city, school district, or transit authority appears more than once in the recent set. The geographic spread is scattered across Oregon, Texas, Florida, Connecticut, and California with no concentration. Because the recent opportunities do not reflect slump testing or related concrete-quality assessment activities, this code lacks actionable signals for firms pursuing concrete materials testing, QA/QC services, or equipment sales in that domain. State and local procurement activity tagged to this code does not match its intended scope.
