UNSPSC 12142202: Heavy water

UNSPSC 12142202 Heavy water, a Commodity code, represents specialized chemical products purchased by state and local water and utility agencies. The recent solicitation record shows minimal substantive detail about the actual goods or services being procured under this code; the County of Orange, California IFB references the specific scope only in Section 4 of the tender document itself, which the source does not detail. State and local buyers under this code appear to include public works departments and utilities purchasing chemical inputs for water treatment or industrial processes, though the current activity record does not support a broad characterization of issuing-body types.

The County of Orange, OC Public Works issued IFB #TESTOCTA with a same-day deadline of October 2, 2026 at 12:00 a.m., applying a 5% preference deduction for certified Orange County Local Small Business (OCLSB) and Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) bidders, and an 8% preference for businesses certified as both, capped at $100,000 maximum allowable preference deduction. The solicitation required firm, fixed pricing with no cost escalations without County approval, and mandated performance and labor and material payment bonds prior to award. Amendment No. 1 was posted October 1, 2026. Beyond this single Orange County opportunity, the source provides no additional recent state or local solicitations under the code, limiting visibility into geographic concentration or issuing-body diversity.
