UNSPSC 41122401: Magnetic spin bars or stir bars or stirring beads

UNSPSC 41122401 Magnetic spin bars or stir bars or stirring beads (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and the recent state and local opportunities recorded under it. The two most recent solicitations involve mixer parts and accessories sourced by a county utility and comprehensive laboratory testing services for a municipal water and wastewater system—neither of which involves magnetic stir bars or stirring beads as the primary procurement object. The code appears to capture only tangential or miscategorized opportunities in the state and local procurement record, suggesting limited direct activity under its intended product definition.

Pinellas County Utilities issued ITQ 26-0647 on June 23, 2026, seeking Invent Mixer Parts & Accessories with a response deadline of June 30, 2026, and referenced an existing blanket purchase agreement (BPA 457764) suggesting a renewal posture; the City of Palm Bay, Brevard County, issued ITB 19-ITB-26 for Laboratory Testing Services with a March 17, 2026, bid deadline and awarded the contract to Advanced Environmental Laboratories, Inc. at $80,872.00 for a twelve-month initial term with four optional twelve-month renewals. Both opportunities are located in Florida. No recent opportunities under this code directly solicit magnetic spin bars, stir bars, or stirring beads as primary commodities, and the recorded activity does not support a reliable characterization of the issuing-body types, geographic concentration, or market depth for the code's intended product line.
