UNSPSC 22101715: Batching plants or feeders

UNSPSC 22101715 Batching plants or feeders is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to classify concrete supply and placement contracts. Recent solicitations reveal that jurisdictions are buying concrete materials and services for infrastructure work—roadway resurfacing, sidewalk replacement, bridge construction, and site concrete placement—rather than acquiring batching equipment itself. The issuing bodies span cities (Bend, Oregon; Palo Alto, California; Sanford, Florida; Madison, Wisconsin; Buda, Texas; Atlanta, Georgia), counties (Santa Clara, California; Orange, Florida; Appling, Georgia; Galveston, Texas), and special-purpose authorities. Cities appear most frequently across recent postings. Work ranges from on-call blanket purchase orders for ready-mix concrete delivery (per-cubic-yard pricing with delivery-time guarantees) to fixed-quantity concrete services tied to specific infrastructure projects. Contracts consistently require supplier compliance with state and local concrete specifications, delivery timeframes (typically 80 minutes or less from batching), technical certifications for quality control, and insurance minimums of $1 million to $2 million in general liability.

Geographic activity concentrates in California (Santa Clara County, Palo Alto, Bend) and Georgia (Atlanta, Appling County), with additional recent solicitations in Florida (Orange County, Sanford), Texas (Buda, Galveston County), Wisconsin (Madison), and Oregon (Bend). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Bend's sealed-bid procurement for commercial grade concrete on an on-call basis through May 8, 2026 with a five-year term and estimated contract value not to exceed $900,000; the City of Palo Alto's RFQ for Portland cement concrete delivery through June 30, 2029 with an annual not-to-exceed of $85,000 per year; and Santa Clara County's solicitation for the Red Fox Creek Bridge replacement project with sealed bids due March 5, 2026, encompassing concrete work, piling, and drainage as part of a broader bridge construction scope. The City of Sanford, Florida issued an IFB for concrete services and raw materials (curb, gutter, driveways, sidewalks, ramps) with a one-year initial term and four renewal options through January 29, 2026. Bid responses show concrete mix specifications anchored to ASTM and state DOT standards, with pricing structured on per-cubic-yard or per-linear-foot bases.
