UNSPSC 20121457: BOP operating system

BOP operating system is designed to provide a fast and reliable closure around pipe or casing in the well bore.

UNSPSC 20121457 BOP operating system is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity covers specialized environmental equipment operation and removal services rather than software or computing systems. The City of Tucson's RFP for gas extraction and refrigerant recovery services at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus represents the primary recent solicitation under this code — the work involves EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimers extracting gases from approximately 50 appliance units per week, maintaining comprehensive documentation, and ensuring proper destruction or recycling of recovered materials. The issuing-body mix reflects municipal environmental departments and sustainability initiatives as the primary buyers, though a second opportunity tagged to this code — Sourcewell's cooperative procurement for law enforcement equipment on behalf of multiple Washington counties and participating entities nationwide — appears unrelated to the code's actual scope and likely represents a tagging mismatch rather than representative work under the code.

Recent activity centers on the Southwest, with the Tucson Environmental and General Services Division posting its RFP (No. 240011) in September 2026 with a response deadline of September 19, 2024, seeking a contractor capable of meeting biweekly extraction cycles under EPA compliance requirements. The contract offers a one-year initial term with up to four one-year renewals and includes tiered pricing for Freon, mixed gas, and refrigerant extraction plus variable labor rates for general and after-hours service. No incumbent vendor is named in available documentation. The code shows minimal recent breadth — only one concrete, relevant opportunity appears in the current window — suggesting either narrow scope, infrequent procurement cycles, or continued reliance on existing suppliers rather than open competition.
