UNSPSC 41121809: Laboratory funnels

UNSPSC 41121809 Laboratory funnels, a Commodity code, encompasses laboratory glassware and consumable supplies used in state and local scientific and testing operations. While the code's nominal scope covers funnels specifically, recent procurement activity reveals that state and local agencies solicit laboratory consumables more broadly under this classification, including validated laboratory process supplies and associated equipment needed for analytical work. The issuing bodies for this code include state procurement offices managing centralized purchasing for scientific agencies and departments.

The Oregon State Procurement office posted a Special Procurement Notice (S2570000017179) on June 9, 2026, for direct purchase of Revvity Janus consumable supplies from the manufacturer, with the protest period closing June 16, 2026. This is a sole-source procurement under OAR 125-247-0288, justified on the grounds that the consumables are required for validated laboratory processes and unavailable through existing statewide price agreements. Revvity is not registered in OregonBuys and sells only under standard manufacturer terms, precluding competitive bidding. The available data shows limited recent competitive solicitation activity under this code; the Oregon example reflects direct-purchase authority rather than open competition, suggesting that laboratory consumable procurement in the state and local market may proceed through standing price agreements, cooperative purchasing arrangements, or manufacturer-specific sole-source notices where validated processes constrain vendor choice.
