UNSPSC 20143700: Subsea pipeline materials

Line pipe, flanges, fittings, cathodic protection, buoyancy, VIV Suppression, pipe coating, pipe insulation and other related equipment

UNSPSC 20143700 Subsea pipeline materials is a Class code that in state and local practice encompasses water and wastewater infrastructure components installed underground or submerged, including well column pipes, aeration systems, strainers, and related equipment serving potable water supply, irrigation, and wastewater collection and treatment. The mix of issuing bodies spans county water and wastewater authorities (Hillsborough County, Broward County), municipal utilities (City of Bend, City of Atlanta, Athens-Clarke County), and regional water districts. County purchasing cooperatives also procure materials under this code on behalf of member agencies. Hillsborough County appears as a repeat buyer, having solicited both Wet Well Wizard aeration systems for lift stations and water well maintenance and repair services within the same period. The work being solicited ranges from capital equipment installation—such as proprietary aeration systems with multi-year supply contracts—to routine replacement and repair of discrete components, maintenance services, and engineering design for well renewal. A Hillsborough County sole-source procurement (SS2600397) for 60 to 80 Wet Well Wizard aeration systems over five years at $5.371 million anchors the high end; Hillsborough County's water well maintenance and repair contract (ITB2600234) for 67 wells across eight county parks over two years at $688,073.00 represents ongoing service work; and Broward County's open-end indefinite-quantity contract (ITB OPN2131840B1) for new well column pipes meeting ASTM A53 Grade B Schedule 30 steel specifications illustrates routine supply procurement.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, with secondary representation in California, Oregon, and Texas. Hillsborough County (Tampa Bay area) and Broward County (Miami-Fort Lauderdale area) dominate the recent posted opportunities. The City of Atlanta's on-call commercial diving services contract (IFB/GS/DWM/2606-1260235) due July 24, 2026, addresses submerged infrastructure inspection and repair across wastewater and drinking water systems. The Unified Government of Athens-Clarke County, Georgia solicited removal and direct replacement of a 16-inch automatic strainer at North Oconee Water Reclamation Facility (BID #26042, due June 12, 2026) with an estimated budget of $125,000 to $175,000. San Bernardino County Department of Public Works issued a standard drilling and well development contract (SPD127SPDAD6517) due October 8, 2026, for a 515-foot non-potable irrigation well at Prado Regional Park, including stainless steel casing, gravel packing, well development, and aquifer testing. The City of Bend, Oregon's River Well #1 engineering renewal project (RFP 26-3256, due May 20, 2026) represents the highest-value single opportunity at approximately $525,000 for design services supporting a full well rehabilitation with casing replacement and wellhouse reconstruction. Procurement preferences in Florida include SBE and CBE set-asides where applicable; Georgia and Oregon solicitations note prevailing wage and licensing requirements typical of public works activity.
