UNSPSC 20102307: Underground mining service vehicle spare parts or accessories

UNSPSC 20102307 Underground mining service vehicle spare parts or accessories is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitation activity, encompasses environmental gas extraction and refrigerant recovery services rather than mining-equipment components. The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division (EGSD) solicited this work through RFP 240011, seeking EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimers to extract gases from approximately 50 appliance units per week at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus. The scope includes extraction at minimum every two weeks, comprehensive documentation of gas destruction or recycling, use of EPA-approved recovery equipment, and certification of all technicians performing extraction. The contractor must maintain detailed records and comply with EPA regulations governing refrigerant handling and disposal. The initial contract term runs one year with up to four additional one-year renewals, and evaluation criteria emphasize technical capabilities, EPA compliance, and consistent extraction and documentation performance. The pricing structure includes line items for Freon, mixed gas, and refrigerant removal, as well as hourly labor rates covering general operating hours, after-hours work, and holiday rates.

The City of Tucson in Pima County, Arizona represents the identified recent buyer under this code. RFP 240011 included a pre-submittal conference scheduled for March 19, 2024, with proposals due September 19, 2024, at 2:00 P.M. local Arizona time. The procurement references Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Terms and Conditions, which typically include DBE participation provisions, though specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed. No incumbent vendor is named. The code shows limited recent state and local activity — this single opportunity represents the primary visible procurement signal under the category, suggesting either narrow application of the UNSPSC designation to environmental services outside traditional mining-equipment spare parts or sparse current demand for work matching the code's nominal scope.
