NIGP 46040: Hot Water Hose

NIGP 46040 Hot Water Hose, an Item code, covers replacement hose and hose-assembly components for specialized industrial pumps used in wastewater and water treatment operations. State and local governments procure these items to maintain operational continuity at water reclamation centers and similar facilities where pump-driven fluid transfer is mission-critical. The work consists primarily of identifying, sourcing, and supplying compatible replacement and repair parts — typically through competitive bidding against registered supplier catalogs — rather than manufacturing or custom fabrication.

Fulton County Department of Watershed Management in Georgia has posted the most recent visible opportunity under this code: an Invitation for Bid (IFB/GS/DWM/2606-1260240) for hose pump parts and replacement components for Watson-Marlow Bredel pumps serving multiple Water Reclamation Centers, with bids due July 31, 2026. Vendors must register on the county's supplier portal (atlsuppliers.com) to access detailed part specifications and submit bids. This solicitation reflects the core demand under the code — maintaining equipment reliability and preventing service interruptions at regional water treatment infrastructure.
