UNSPSC 41116147: Toxicology quality controls or calibrators or standards

UNSPSC 41116147 Toxicology quality controls or calibrators or standards is a Commodity code that encompasses laboratory consumables and supplies used in toxicology and histology instruction and testing — preserved biological specimens, chemical reagents with current safety documentation, micromedia, live materials, and associated laboratory equipment and calibration standards. State and local governments procuring under this code are primarily school districts and county health or forensic laboratories; the recent opportunities show K-12 districts purchasing science supplies for broad instructional use alongside county procurement for specialized toxicology and histology work. Purchases are typically made on an as-needed basis without minimum quantities guaranteed, with vendors expected to provide online ordering platforms, accept procurement cards and purchase orders, deliver within defined lead times, and maintain assigned account representatives. Scope varies from comprehensive science supply frameworks serving entire school systems to focused toxicology supply reprocurements by county health agencies.

Cook County, Illinois and Cobb County School District in Georgia represent the most recent documented activity under the code. Cook County issued re-bid solicitation 2457-09110 RR for histology and toxicology supplies with a due date of July 22, 2026. Cobb County School District (serving 105,738 students across 112 school sites) issued IFB B26128 on May 15, 2026, for science specimens, chemicals, supplies, and equipment with an estimated annual expenditure of $175,000 and a June 16, 2026 response deadline; the district requires vendors to establish online ordering, provide quarterly reporting, deliver within ten business days, and submit percentage discounts across four product categories. The solicitation mandates proof of $1 million Commercial General Liability, $1 million Commercial Auto Liability, $1 million Professional Liability, and $2 million Umbrella Coverage, along with E-Verify registration under the Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act. Beyond these two jurisdictions, the source shows no additional documented recent activity in this code.
