UNSPSC 46151604: Alcohol analyzers

A device used to measure or estimate blood alchohol content (BAC).

UNSPSC 46151604 Alcohol analyzers (Commodity) encompasses breath alcohol testing equipment, calibration supplies, and related services that state and local governments procure for law enforcement, occupational health, and offender monitoring programs. Recent solicitations show states and counties purchasing evidential breath testers (Intoxilyzer 800, Alco-Sensor, and portable FC10Plus units), calibration dry gas and replacement parts for existing instruments, portable alcohol testing devices with data transmission capability, and comprehensive drug and alcohol testing services including specimen collection, immunoassay screening with confirmatory analysis, and occupational medical evaluations. State police agencies, county criminal justice departments, city law enforcement, county human resources divisions, and specialized occupational health vendors are the primary issuing bodies. The mix reflects both equipment procurement and full-service testing operations: some jurisdictions buy instruments and consumables for in-house operations, while others contract for turnkey testing and monitoring services including staffing, lab certification, and electronic reporting.

Activity spans multiple states with notable concentration in Texas, Kentucky, South Dakota, Oregon, Florida, North Carolina, and Georgia. Texas Department of Public Safety issued an IFB for 100 portable FC10Plus testers (due March 25, 2026), while Harris County Pretrial Services posted an RFP for ignition interlock devices and portable alcohol testing devices with near-real-time data transmission (due April 27, 2026).
