UNSPSC 22101611: Bituminous material distributors

UNSPSC 22101611 Bituminous material distributors (Commodity) covers the supply of bituminous pavement materials—asphalt overlays, recycled asphalt concrete, crack-relief interlayers, and related mixtures—used by state and local transportation agencies for road resurfacing and maintenance. Recent state and local solicitations show this code capturing competitive sealed-bid procurements for materials supply on unit-price or as-needed basis, with no evidence of service-delivery or consulting work. Issuing bodies are predominantly counties and regional purchasing cooperatives serving multiple municipalities; the Capitol Region Council of Governments in Connecticut, Salt Lake County, Barrow County (Georgia), and Santa Clara County (California) all solicited bituminous materials within the past four months. The scope reflects straightforward commodity procurement—fixed pricing, F.O.B. delivery, compliance with state DOT specifications, and performance bonds typical of public works supply contracts. No incumbent vendors or set-asides appear in the recent opportunities.

Geographic spread centers on the West Coast (California counties), the Southeast (Georgia, Florida), and the Northeast (Connecticut cooperative), with scattered activity in the Mountain West (Utah). Representative recent opportunities include Santa Clara County's Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project (ITB due May 21, 2026), which specified partial depth recycling, hot mix asphalt overlay, and associated pavement repairs across multiple work items; the Capitol Region Purchasing Council's Bituminous Class 1, Class 2, and Curb Mix procurement (ITB due March 17, 2026) on behalf of Connecticut municipalities, priced on unit rates and delivery basis; and Barrow County, Georgia's Wynn Lake Road resurfacing project (sealed bid due March 18, 2026), which called for approximately 1,250 tons of recycled asphalt patching and 2,230 tons of topping on a 210-day schedule. All three employed straightforward competitive procurement with unit-price or lump-sum structures, no minority set-asides, and payment on a 90-percent-of-work-completed schedule. Activity is steady across the country but not concentrated; the code reflects routine, recurring demand from county transportation and public works departments.
