UNSPSC 20123203: Expandable liner

Special liner capable of expanding in the open hole below the production casing.

UNSPSC 20123203 Expandable liner is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity covers refrigerant recovery and gas extraction services from appliances and equipment, rather than physical liner products. The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division solicited an RFP for EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimers to extract gases from approximately 50 units per week at its Los Reales Sustainability Campus, with extraction required at minimum every two weeks and comprehensive documentation of gas destruction or recycling. The scope includes extraction of Freon, mixed gas, and refrigerant; hourly labor rates for standard, after-hours, and holiday work; and technical qualifications centered on EPA certification, compliance with federal environmental regulations, and certified technician availability. The code appears to serve municipal environmental and sustainability operations, with the Tucson opportunity representing the primary recent activity in this category. A second opportunity tagged to this code — Sourcewell's RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment — shows no material connection to expandable liners or gas extraction, suggesting a classification mismatch at the source.

Geographic concentration is limited: the recent relevant activity centers on Arizona, specifically Pima County and the City of Tucson. The Tucson RFP (No. 240011, due September 19, 2024) established a one-year initial contract term with up to four additional one-year renewals and included a pre-submittal conference scheduled for March 19, 2024, via Microsoft Teams. The procurement references Federal Transit Administration terms and conditions with potential DBE participation provisions. No incumbent vendors are named, and specific budget ranges are not provided, though the detailed pricing structure for different extraction volumes and service times suggests flexibility in contract sizing. The code shows minimal recent activity among state and local issuers; the single clearly relevant opportunity reflects a niche environmental compliance function rather than a broad procurement category.
