UNSPSC 20143503: Subsea connection system

Subsea connection systems are used to provide diverless links between subsea wells, manifolds, pipelines, risers and control umbilicals.

UNSPSC 20143503 Subsea connection system, a Commodity code, encompasses subsurface and submerged water infrastructure components and services that state and local governments procure to maintain, repair, and expand potable and wastewater systems. Recent solicitations show that state and local buyers under this code are actually purchasing well column pipes, well casing repair materials, aeration system equipment for lift stations and wet wells, automatic strainers for water reclamation facilities, and associated subsurface water infrastructure maintenance and repair services. Issuing bodies include county departments of public works and water/wastewater services, municipal water utilities, and regional water authorities. The code sees activity from Florida counties (Hillsborough, Broward, Miami-Dade area), Georgia (Athens-Clarke County), California (San Bernardino County), and Oregon (Bend), with Hillsborough County appearing as a repeat buyer for both aeration systems and well maintenance contracts.

Recent representative opportunities include Hillsborough County's sole-source procurement for Wet Well Wizard aeration systems (ITB, 2027–2032, $5.371 million estimated value) and its water well maintenance and repair services contract (ITB, two-year term, $688,073 estimated value); Broward County's open-end indefinite-quantity contract for new well column pipes meeting ASTM A53 Grade B Schedule 30 specifications (ITB OPN2131840B1, bids due June 23, 2026); the City of Bend's RFP for engineering services to design and implement River Well #1 improvements including new internal casing installation and wellhouse replacement (RFP 26-3256, proposals due May 20, 2026, $525,000 estimated engineering budget); and the Unified Government of Athens-Clarke County's IFB for automatic strainer direct replacement at the North Oconee Water Reclamation Facility (IFB BID #26042, bids due June 12, 2026, $125,000–$175,000 budget). Broward County applies procurement preferences for Small Business Enterprises (SBE) and County Business Enterprises (CBE), and Hillsborough County enforces prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements on well development projects.
