UNSPSC 49211814: Fatigue measurement instrument

Fatigue is the phenomenon that declines the bodily function with insufficient nerve-system and chemical control by the severe mental or physical activities. It is the device to measure the degree of such fatigue.

UNSPSC 49211814 Fatigue measurement instrument, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment with state and local government procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code overwhelmingly reflect athletic equipment, supplies, and apparel procurement—basketballs, volleyballs, wrestling mats, power lifting equipment, fitness apparel, and related physical education gear—rather than fatigue measurement instruments or physiological monitoring devices. School districts, independent school systems, and educational institutions are the primary issuing bodies, with representative solicitations including Birdville Independent School District (BISD) in North Richland Hills, Texas issuing RFCSP 002-27 for Athletic Equipment, Supplies and Related Services with a response deadline of July 1, 2026 and annual contract value of $867,443.31; Fulton County Schools in Georgia issuing IFB 214-26 for Wrestling Mats with a response deadline of May 26, 2026; and Donna Independent School District soliciting catalog bids for Physical Education Supplies and Power Lifting Equipment and Supplies, both due April 8, 2026. Harlingen Consolidated Independent School District, Los Fresnos Consolidated Independent School District, and Northside Independent School District also issued athletic supply and equipment solicitations in spring 2026. These solicitations typically follow catalog-discount or as-needed purchasing models with multiple-award structures and contract terms running September-through-August academic years.

Activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with additional procurement activity in Florida (Marion County Schools), Connecticut (City of New Haven issuing RFP 2026RFPCNH361 for a ropes challenge course by June 23, 2026), and across cooperative purchasing vehicles including the Association of Educational Purchasing Agencies (AEPA) issuing sealed-bid solicitation 027-E for Athletic Supplies and Equipment on behalf of 31 state member agencies with response deadline August 13, 2026, and Sourcewell issuing RFP 061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment with response deadline June 16, 2026. Texas A&M University's Division of Finance and Business Services solicited Woodway Treadmills through ITB TAMU-ITB-26-5008 (response deadline May 20, 2026), and Albany State University issued eRFQ for Athletic Equipment, Apparel, and Customization Services with response deadline March 26, 2026. The code's nominal definition—fatigue measurement instruments—does not match the commodities actually being procured, indicating either a classification mismatch in the source data or limited genuine demand for physiological measurement instruments within state and local government athletic and physical education programs.
