UNSPSC 21102500 Irrigation systems and equipment is a Class code covering the supply, installation, repair, and maintenance of irrigation infrastructure and components that state and local governments procure for parks, athletic fields, municipal facilities, golf courses, schools, and transportation right-of-way. Recent solicitations show agencies purchasing complete irrigation systems (mainline pipe, controllers, sprinkler heads, valves), system upgrades (controller replacements, smart technology retrofits), repair and maintenance services on large-scale commercial systems, specialized components such as submersible pumps and flow sensors, and irrigation supplies on as-needed basis through term contracts. The issuing bodies span cities (Temple, Richardson, Dania Beach, Sanford, Tempe, Lubbock, Wheat Ridge, West Jordan, Burleson, Stamford, South Salt Lake), counties (Hillsborough, Pasco, Orange, Bulloch, Yuma, Ventura, Williamson), school districts and community colleges (Lee County Schools, Valencia College, Mt.
