UNSPSC 20142500: Produced water treating equipment

UNSPSC 20142500 Produced water treating equipment is a Class code covering water treatment chemicals, equipment, and services that state and local water utilities, wastewater authorities, and special-purpose districts procure to manage treated water systems, handle produced or contaminated water streams, and maintain treatment infrastructure. Recent solicitations under this code span specialized chemical feed programs (chlorine dioxide generation), mobile dewatering equipment rental, centrifuge parts and service, treatment chemical supply contracts, cooling tower water treatment, and ancillary pond and clearwell maintenance. Issuing bodies include city water departments (Waxahachie, Salem, LaGrange, Fairburn, Cumming), county environmental and wastewater authorities (Hillsborough County, Henry County), special facilities (Tampa Convention Center), and regional water management agencies (Atlanta Department of Watershed Management). The mix reflects both routine chemical procurement by municipal utilities and specialized equipment maintenance for advanced treatment systems.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Florida, with secondary representation in Texas and Oregon. Representative opportunities include the City of Waxahachie RFP for full-service chlorine dioxide generation at two municipal water treatment plants (due May 28, 2026, emphasizing turnkey equipment, chemical supply, and maintenance); Hillsborough County ITB for centrifuge mobile sludge dewatering unit rental across wastewater facilities (due July 27, 2026, estimated contract value $6,623,000 over five years); the City of Atlanta's prequalification-phase competitive sealed bid for centrifuge OEM parts and repair services across multiple manufacturer platforms (prequalification opening July 23, 2026); the City of LaGrange sealed bid for water and wastewater treatment chemicals including powdered activated carbon, aluminum sulfate, sodium chlorite, and ferric chloride (due June 8, 2026, with firm pricing and two-day delivery required); Henry County RFP for groundwater and methane gas monitoring at closed landfills (due September 10, 2026, with local-vendor preference where bids fall within five percent of the low out-of-county offer); and the City of Salem sole source notice for annual Andritz Centrifuge service and repair ($75,000 annually, five-year term). Opportunities range from one-year renewable terms to ten-year contracts, with evaluation criteria typically weighting experience, qualifications, and cost heavily and cost alone as secondary.
