UNSPSC 41114648: Concrete or cement vibration tester

A tester that measures the vibration of concrete used in road pavement or civil construction.

UNSPSC 41114648 Concrete or cement vibration tester is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally covers handheld or bench-mounted devices used to verify vibration properties of concrete or cement mixtures during quality control testing. However, the recent opportunities tagged to this code encompass laboratory equipment repair and maintenance (Texas DSHS equipment service for washers and sterilizers), spectrophotometer replacement (City of Tampa waste-to-energy facility), transformer oil testing services (Lubbock Power & Light), fire station materials testing and special inspection (Town of Waterford, Connecticut), meter test board systems (City of Ocala Electric Utility), servo-hydraulic fatigue testing systems (Lamar University), and production well construction (City of Palm Bay). None of these procurements involve concrete or cement vibration testing equipment or services, suggesting either a systematic miscoding issue across multiple jurisdictions or a code classification that does not reflect current purchasing patterns.

State and local governments issuing under this code span utilities (electric and water), municipalities (Frisco, Ocala, Tampa, Palm Bay), counties (Marion County, Brevard County, Santa Clara), state health agencies (Texas DSHS), transit authorities (Broward County Transportation Department), and academic institutions (Lamar University, Texas A&M University System), distributed across Texas, Florida, Connecticut, Oregon, and beyond. The actual work being solicited—laboratory diagnostics, equipment maintenance, materials testing, utility infrastructure—bears no consistent relationship to concrete vibration testing. Recent activity includes an ITB for laboratory testing and phlebotomy services (Marion County, Oregon, due July 24, 2026), an IFB for laboratory equipment repair and maintenance at $25,050 to $40,000 annually (Texas DSHS, due July 6, 2026), and an RFQ for spectrophotometer replacement (City of Tampa, due June 12, 2026). The code appears inactive or incorrectly applied across these opportunities, making pursuit decisions difficult without clarification of the actual commodity or service intended by issuing bodies.
