UNSPSC 41131500: Automated and semi-automated hematology devices

In this classification these entries include largely automated devices used in blood manufacturing and hematological based laboratory procedures.

UNSPSC 41131500 Automated and semi-automated hematology devices, a Class code, covers laboratory testing equipment and consumables that state and local governments procure for blood analysis and screening programs. Recent solicitations show the code encompasses both capital equipment — standalone analyzers for hemoglobin and hematology testing — and associated supplies, including proficiency testing samples and instrument-specific consumables such as sample probes, filters, cones, nebulizers, and reagent solutions. The issuing bodies are primarily state health departments and public universities; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) and Department of State Health Services (DSHS) have posted multiple IFBs in the past four months for equipment replacement and consumable replenishment, while the University of Wisconsin-Madison solicited custom proficiency testing samples through its ShopUW+ cooperative purchasing portal.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Wisconsin. The Texas HHSC issued IFB HHS0017310 on May 1, 2026 (response deadline May 18, 2026) for a D-10 Hemoglobin Testing System with Rack Loader to replace end-of-life laboratory equipment at the South Texas Lab in Harlingen; historical spend for similar goods in fiscal year 2025 ranged from $45,050 to $80,000. The same agency issued IFB HHS0017071 on February 18, 2026 for PerkinElmer ICP-MS consumables and supplies supporting pediatric blood lead analysis, with 20 line items of filters, nebulizers, and reagents and a response deadline of March 5, 2026. The University of Wisconsin-Madison posted RFB 2026-UWMSN-01287-RFB on April 3, 2026 (response deadline May 5, 2026) for custom-made hematology and whole blood chemistry proficiency testing samples. No set-aside designations are specified in these solicitations, though the Texas procurements encourage Historically Underutilized Business subcontracting plans.
