UNSPSC 71171902: Analysis of organic acids in water

Analysis of organic acids in water

UNSPSC 71171902 Analysis of organic acids in water is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure water quality testing and laboratory analysis services, primarily for regulatory compliance in wastewater management, drinking water systems, and environmental monitoring. Recent solicitations show the code applies to emergency sewer spill response, pathogen detection in healthcare water systems, wastewater treatment plant operations, and stormwater quality assessment. The work spans sampling collection, laboratory analysis using EPA-approved methods, data management, regulatory reporting, and compliance documentation — services needed across environmental protection divisions, water and sewer departments, healthcare facilities, and school systems. Issuing bodies include county water departments (Forsyth County, Georgia; Hillsborough County, Florida), county healthcare systems (Santa Clara County, California), municipalities (City of Palm Bay, Florida), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools, Florida), and state environmental agencies (New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection). Forsyth County appears twice in the recent block as a repeat buyer of both sewer spill monitoring and sewer flow monitoring services.

Activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, with secondary presence in California, New Jersey, Illinois, and Texas. Representative opportunities include Forsyth County's Sewer Spill Monitoring Services (ITQ due November 12, 2026) covering emergency response sampling and analysis at major sanitary sewer spill sites under Georgia Environmental Protection Division requirements; Santa Clara County's Waterborne Pathogen Testing and Environmental Microbiology Services (proposals due October 22, 2026) requiring ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation and CDC ELITE participation for Legionella culture testing at healthcare dialysis facilities; Hillsborough County Public Schools' Water and Wastewater Laboratory Services (ITB due September 24, 2026) encompassing 32 line items of wastewater process control, groundwater monitoring, drinking water compliance, and PFAS testing with estimated annual quantities ranging from 2 to 850 tests per item; and the City of Palm Bay's Laboratory Testing Services Re-Bid (ITB due October 6, 2026) covering deep injection well monitoring, drinking water parameters, VOC and PFAS analysis, and industrial pretreatment monitoring across treatment plants and distribution systems with historical annual spending of $65,665 to $95,438. These solicitations reflect steady demand for accredited laboratory capacity, regulatory compliance expertise, and courier and sample handling infrastructure.
