UNSPSC 20121411: Gas lift equipment

UNSPSC 20121411 Gas lift equipment is a Commodity code that covers EPA-certified refrigerant recovery and extraction services from appliances and equipment at municipal facilities, as well as gas purification and scrubber equipment for water reclamation and digester systems. State and local governments under this code are primarily city environmental and utilities departments handling compliance-driven gas management, extraction, and recycling operations. The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division and Salt Lake City Department of Public Utilities represent the issuing-body types active in this space—municipal environmental and water infrastructure agencies with federal oversight or grant requirements (including FTA Terms and Conditions) that mandate documented gas handling and environmental compliance. Work solicited ranges from recurring extraction services with EPA certification requirements and detailed documentation protocols to one-time equipment purchases for gas purification systems integrated into larger capital facility projects.

Recent activity centers on Arizona and Utah, with the City of Tucson issuing RFP No. 240011 for Gas Extraction and Removal services at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus (response date September 19, 2024, with pre-submittal conference March 19, 2024), and Salt Lake City Department of Public Utilities requesting qualifications via RFQ for Gas Purification Scrubbers equipment at the New Water Reclamation Facility (qualifications due August 5, 2026). The Tucson opportunity targets EPA-certified reclaimers capable of extracting gases from approximately 50 units per week on a recurring basis with one-year initial term and up to four one-year renewals; Salt Lake City's procurement involves final design verification, shop drawing review, equipment fabrication, delivery, and installation support in coordination with the engineer and general contractor. A third notice from Sourcewell (a Minnesota local government unit cooperative) for Law Enforcement Equipment (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026) appears to be a mismatch with this code's scope and shows no direct relevance to gas lift or extraction operations.
