UNSPSC 41115318: Colorimeters

UNSPSC 41115318 Colorimeters is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement appears to capture laboratory information management systems and related diagnostic infrastructure rather than standalone colorimetry instruments. The County of Santa Clara issued a Request for Information in April 2026 seeking a lab information management system (LIMS) for its Public Health Lab — a modern, scalable, fully compliant solution supporting the complete range of public health laboratory workflows. The code's nominal scope (colorimeters as optical instruments) does not align with the actual procurement activity tagged under it. State and local issuing bodies in this code mix appear limited to public health and county-level agencies responsible for laboratory operations and compliance infrastructure.

The single recent opportunity tracked under this code originates from California. The County of Santa Clara's RFI for a Public Health Lab Information Management Solution Replacement, posted April 7, 2026 with a response deadline of April 22, 2026, represents the only indexed recent activity. No contract value, set-aside designation, or incumbent vendor information was disclosed in the solicitation. The mismatch between the code's colorimeter definition and the LIMS procurement suggests this code sees sparse relevant state and local activity, or that tagging practices at issuing bodies do not consistently align commodity codes with actual scope of work.
