UNSPSC 12352111: Amides or imides

UNSPSC 12352111 Amides or imides (Commodity) covers chemical supply purchases that state and local governments use for infrastructure maintenance, water treatment, and grounds management. Recent solicitations tagged to this code show divergence from the abstract category name — actual procurements span calcium chloride for winter road de-icing, liquid hydrogen peroxide for water treatment, and herbicides and fertilizers for facility grounds upkeep, alongside biofilter rehabilitation work that does not align with the code's chemical scope. The work is driven by public works, water utilities, and facilities management arms within municipalities and special districts, with straightforward requirements around product specifications, supplier experience thresholds, and delivery logistics. Vendors must typically demonstrate three or more years in the category and meet insurance minimums ranging from $1 million to $2 million in general liability coverage.

The code shows recent activity across Michigan, Georgia, California, and Florida. The City of Detroit Office of Contracting and Procurement issued an RFQ on September 30, 2026, for 200,000 gallons of liquid calcium chloride for ice control, with quotes due October 14, 2026 and Detroit-based vendor preferences of 1–5% pricing credits applied at award; Gwinnett County, Georgia posted an RFQ on September 8, 2026, for liquid hydrogen peroxide due September 15, 2026; and Pasco County, Florida issued an IFB on May 12, 2026, for herbicides, fertilizers, and pesticides on an as-needed basis, with bids due June 16, 2026. The Pasco County contract runs through September 30, 2029, with optional extensions and bi-annual CPI-U price adjustments. Eastern Municipal Water District in Riverside County, California solicited biofilter rehabilitation proposals (RFPHH3950) due July 24, 2026, which falls outside the chemical commodities scope of the code itself.
