UNSPSC 41115334: Whiteness tester

A type of device that measures the whiteness of paper and several pulverulent bodies, such as agricultural food like wheat powder, sugar, chemical product, or cement.

UNSPSC 41115334 Whiteness tester, a Commodity code, shows a disconnect between its nominal scope and recent state and local solicitation activity. The single recent opportunity under this code is the Georgia World Congress Center Authority's RFQ PE92200RFQC2026000000082, posted May 28, 2026, for Owner's Representative Services on the GESPC II Project — a guaranteed energy savings performance contract involving building automation systems, HVAC infrastructure, cooling tower, and kitchen ventilation upgrades at the Atlanta convention center campus through June 2028. This procurement is plainly unrelated to whiteness testing equipment; the code does not reflect actual state and local buying activity in this commodity family.

The Georgia World Congress Center Authority is the only issuing body represented in recent activity under this code. The RFQ calls for a Statement of Qualifications due June 15, 2026, with a mandatory pre-bid meeting on June 3, 2026. The scope requires an Owner's Representative to serve as the Authority's day-to-day coordination point during construction, with 10–30 percent on-site presence estimated across two years of work. Minimum qualifications include $1 million commercial general liability insurance per occurrence, $2 million aggregate, $5 million umbrella coverage, a valid Georgia business license, a current ratio of 1.0 or higher, and an Experience Modification Rating of 1.2 or less. Evaluation weights relevant project experience at 30 percent, proposed team qualifications at 25 percent, project approach at 20 percent, past performance at 15 percent, and Georgia-based presence and on-site availability at 10 percent. A restriction of communication is in effect; firms may submit questions only through the designated process (questions due June 8, 2026; answers by June 10, 2026). Code activity does not support meaningful pursuit under the whiteness tester category.
