UNSPSC 71171901: Element analyses in water

Element analyses in water

UNSPSC 71171901 Element analyses in water is a Commodity code that encompasses water testing and laboratory analysis services for detecting contaminants—including lead, Legionella, Enterococcus bacteria, and other chemical or biological elements—in drinking water, wastewater, and environmental samples across public facilities, schools, daycares, and municipal infrastructure. State and local governments use this code to procure sampling, laboratory testing, data reporting, and corrective action support to meet EPA, HUD, state environmental, and occupational safety compliance requirements. The issuing bodies span state environmental and health departments, county waste and water authorities, municipalities, school districts, transit authorities, and university systems, with repeat activity from state-level procurement offices in Texas, Michigan, Nevada, and Florida and county-level departments managing water quality and public health across multiple sites.

Recent solicitations illustrate the code's operational scope: Nevada's Division of Conservation and Natural Resources is soliciting WIIN water testing services in approximately 1,431 schools and daycare facilities statewide (RFP 70CNRS3879, due July 8, 2026, estimated value $528,535 over two years); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission is requesting bids for semi-annual and quarterly natural gas and water testing at Richmond State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0017555, due July 2, 2026); the City of Waco Housing and Community Development Department is seeking lead risk assessment and lead clearance reporting services under HUD and CDBG compliance (RFP 2026-020, due July 23, 2026); the City of Pembroke Pines is requesting environmental specialists for lead and mold inspections at residential properties (RFQ PL-26-01, due July 21, 2026, with HUD prevailing wage and Section 3 compliance requirements); the Illinois Department of Human Services is soliciting Legionella water testing services for a three-year term at a developmental center (DHS SP Ludeman, due May 1, 2026); the Michigan Department of Technology is procuring statewide industrial hygiene consulting and lead, mold, asbestos, and indoor air quality inspection and sampling (RFP 26_2065, due June 29, 2026); and Dorchester County, South Carolina is seeking Whole Effluent Toxicity testing from certified laboratories for two wastewater treatment facilities (RFP 202623A, due February 11, 2026). Activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, Michigan, Nevada, and Georgia, with secondary activity in South Carolina, Illinois, and California. Geographic spread reflects a mix of statewide, regional, and site-specific procurements, with the largest recent opportunities tied to HUD and EPA compliance mandates in schools, daycare facilities, and public water systems where federal funding and lead/legionella remediation requirements drive sustained demand.
