UNSPSC 20121451: Gas lift valve

a device installed on a gas lift mandrel, which in turn is put on the tubing string of a gas lift well.

UNSPSC 20121451 Gas lift valve is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it show little alignment with the code's nominal scope. The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division issued RFP No. 240011 in September 2026 for EPA-certified refrigerant reclamation services — extraction and documentation of gases from appliances and products at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus — which maps to environmental remediation rather than valve equipment procurement. A second opportunity, Sourcewell RFP #061626 posted in May 2026, solicits law enforcement equipment for a multi-state cooperative purchasing vehicle covering Washington counties and thousands of participating jurisdictions nationwide, with no connection to gas lift valves or refrigerant services. Neither opportunity reflects the commodity's intended scope of valve hardware or components.

The code shows no recent state and local procurement activity for gas lift valves themselves. The misalignment between the code classification and the work actually tagged under it in the available opportunities suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a gap in the dataset's coverage of genuine gas lift valve demand from state and local buyers. State and local procurement professionals evaluating this code should verify current opportunities through direct agency RFP channels and cooperative purchasing portals rather than rely on these posted records.
