UNSPSC 11191503: Ferrous alloy solids

Solids made from ferrous alloys

UNSPSC 11191503 Ferrous alloy solids is a Commodity code covering the supply and fabrication of ferrous metal products for state and local infrastructure and resource-recovery operations. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying hot-rolled steel plates for roadway construction and capital projects, as well as ferrous metals recovered from waste-processing systems. DeKalb County, Georgia's ITB for steel plates demonstrates the infrastructure side of the code; the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County's RFP for advanced metals recovery processing shows the waste-derived ferrous metals market. The issuing bodies include county governments and special-purpose districts (solid waste authorities). Both opportunities carry local-hire and small-business preferences — DeKalb's ITB requires a minimum 20% Local Small Business Enterprise subcontractor participation, and the Solid Waste Authority's procurement includes E-Verify employment eligibility verification and non-discrimination compliance.

Recent activity is concentrated in Georgia and Florida. DeKalb County's ITB 2026-082 for hot-rolled steel plates, posted June 29, 2026, with bids due July 23, 2026, calls for a three-year multiyear contract covering 480 steel plates (4 feet × 4 feet through 12 feet × 12 feet) with custom fabrication including lifting holes, bars, scoring, and stencil cutouts for roadway projects. The Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County's RFP 26-206, posted June 9, 2026, with proposals due July 16, 2026, seeks operations and maintenance of an Advanced Metals Recovery Processing System processing approximately 150,000 tons of bottom ash annually to recover ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and aggregate; the incumbent's agreement expires September 23, 2026, and the selected proposer must begin transition by that date under an initial three-year Site License Agreement with renewal option. Both contracts emphasize local compliance, insurance requirements, and multi-year commitments.
