UNSPSC 41116168: Fecal test kit or supplies

UNSPSC 41116168 Fecal test kit or supplies (Commodity) encompasses diagnostic screening and confirmatory testing supplies for sexually transmitted infections, drugs of abuse, HIV, and syphilis—state and local governments are currently buying these kits and related reagents, calibrators, controls, and consumables to support public health laboratories, correctional supervision programs, and clinical diagnostic services. Recent solicitations show state health departments, county health authorities, county correctional agencies, and municipal public health programs procuring both bulk testing supplies and specimen collection materials to maintain laboratory operations and disease surveillance capability. The Illinois Department of Public Health has issued multiple change orders and emergency procurements for Hologic NG/NT testing kits and Abbott HIV/Syphilis reagents; Collin County, Texas is sourcing drug testing supplies and offender specimen collection services; Gwinnett County, Georgia is acquiring drugs of abuse analyzer-compatible testing supplies; and the City of Austin is bidding rapid HIV test kits. Most recent opportunities involve reagent kits, control materials, calibrators, and consumables paired with specific analyzer platforms (Hologic Panther NAAT, Abbott ARCHITECT i1000SR, drugs of abuse analyzers); contracts typically include technical support, maintenance, and certified specimen collection services, with volumes ranging from hundreds to tens of thousands of tests annually.

Illinois and Texas dominate recent activity, with the Illinois Department of Public Health (Carbondale Laboratory) and Collin County appearing as repeat buyers across multiple recent procurements. The Illinois Department of Public Health issued a change order in September 2026 increasing annual NG/CT testing volume to 25,000 tests and collection kits to 30,000 units under a five-year Hologic reagent rental contract (revised total $900,000); an emergency procurement in May 2026 for Abbott HIV and Syphilis reagents, calibrators, and maintenance services ($38,079.50, sole-source to Abbott); and a prior emergency final-cost filing for the same Abbott supplies. Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department issued an RFP in September 2026 for offender specimen collection and drug testing services across two sites with approximately 25,031 annual tests ($600,000 estimated, two-year term with optional renewals, responses due July 23, 2026). The City of Austin posted overlapping IFBs in June and August 2026 for Abbott Determine rapid HIV test kits (Abbott Determine HIV 1/2 Ag/Ab Combo kits and controls, approximately 375 and 79 units annually) with responses due July 17 and September 3, 2026. Gwinnett County, Georgia's proposal was due October 14, 2026 for drugs of abuse analyzer-compatible testing supplies, with no quantity or value specified. Activity spans Illinois, Texas, and Georgia, with recent opportunities clustered in September 2026 and earlier summer postings.
