UNSPSC 12163501: Cementing sealants

UNSPSC 12163501 Cementing sealants, a Commodity code, covers the supply of sealant materials state and local governments actually procure for concrete and masonry work, though the recent opportunities block reveals the code sees limited direct solicitation activity. The few visible opportunities tagged to this code involve concrete pad installation, basement restoration, and filter rehabilitation work where sealants may be component materials rather than primary scope items. State and local issuing bodies pursuing work under or near this code span cities (Santa Cruz, Marietta, Arlington, Jackson, Owensboro, Long Beach, Brookhaven), counties (Kissimmee Utility Authority, Pinal County, Volusia County, Deschutes County, Indian River County, Orange County, Ventura County), school districts and charter schools (Cirrus Academy Charter School, Harlingen Consolidated Independent School District), and water and utility authorities (West Basin Municipal Water District, Kissimmee Utility Authority, Long Beach Public Utilities Department). The work solicited includes concrete pad construction for fire stations and basketball courts, dumpster enclosure design-build, precast concrete pads and sleeves for utility transformers and EV chargers, filter rehabilitation in water treatment plants, elevator storage tank rehabilitation, and miscellaneous concrete repair and waterproofing services. Geographic activity spreads across California, Florida, Georgia, Texas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Colorado, and Oregon, with Florida and California showing the highest recent posting volume.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Santa Cruz Fire Department's IFB for concrete pad installation at Fire Station #3 with a mandatory pre-bid meeting on July 1, 2026, and sealed bids due July 29, 2026; Cirrus Academy Charter School's RFP for a reinforced concrete basketball court pad (4,200 square feet) with proposals due October 15, 2026; Kissimmee Utility Authority's rebid for precast concrete pads, sleeves, and posts under AR 26-050-JG with bids due August 11, 2026 on a fixed-price, as-needed annual requirements contract; the City of Olathe, Kansas IFB-26-0083 for ready-mix concrete furnishing and delivery with bids due August 21, 2026 and a local-vendor preference allowing Johnson County businesses to exceed low bid if within 2 percent or $5,000; and Long Beach Public Utilities Department's solicitation for the Groundwater Treatment Plant Filter Gallery Valve Rehabilitation Project Phase 2 with bids due October 8, 2026 and a mandatory pre-bid conference on September 24, 2026. The code shows moderate activity driven primarily by municipal infrastructure, water utility, and facilities-maintenance work rather than standalone sealant supply contracts, suggesting pursuit may require positioning as a subordinate material supplier or subcontractor on larger concrete and masonry renovation scopes.
