UNSPSC 21101801: Sprayers

UNSPSC 21101801 Sprayers (Commodity) covers agricultural and pest-control spray equipment that state and local governments procure for conservation, parks, and mosquito-control operations. Recent activity shows two distinct categories of buying: fixed agricultural sprayers for land and forest management, and aerial application equipment for large-scale mosquito larvicide treatment. The Missouri Department of Conservation has posted back-to-back competitive bids for 3-point rear-mount sprayers with 600-gallon tanks, 60-foot booms, and Raven flow-control systems—standard equipment for habitat management and conservation work. Pinellas County Public Works' Mosquito Control and Vegetation Management Section is simultaneously seeking aerial application contractors with spray-equipped aircraft for mosquito control across 18,100 acres. Issuing bodies under this code span state conservation agencies and county-level public works departments focused on environmental management and pest control rather than general agriculture.

Recent opportunities concentrate in the Southeast and Midwest. Missouri's Department of Conservation posted two separate sprayer solicitations (due August 28, 2026) for delivery to the Schell-Osage Conservation Area, each structured as a one-year blanket purchase agreement with firm, fixed pricing and domestic-products preference. Pinellas County Public Works (Florida) issued an Invitation to Quote for aerial larvicide application services (due April 23, 2026 at 3:00 PM via OpenGov Procurement), structured as a 12-month contract with optional one-year extension at approximately $400,000 annually based on 4,000 acres treated at $100 per acre. Both opportunities require substantial equipment specifications and compliance documentation; the Missouri bids allow acceptable equivalents to a Demco Rear Mount sprayer, while the Pinellas County quote requires FAR 137 pilot certifications, Florida applicator licenses, and aviation liability insurance of $5,000,000 per occurrence. Pinellas County extends SBE procurement preference, with priority to SBEs responding within five business days.
