UNSPSC 23153405: Unlimited component assembly

UNSPSC 23153405 Unlimited component assembly, a Commodity code, encompasses potable water treatment equipment assemblies and valve systems that state and local water utilities procure for plant operation and maintenance. The City of Lubbock, Texas, issued an ITB in May 2026 for a 16-inch venturi-type flow controller paired with an AWWA C504-compliant butterfly valve assembly for the North Water Treatment Plant, specifying cast iron bodies constructed to ASTM A536 Grade 65-45-12 with Type 316 stainless steel throat liners, factory assembly, and testing to 0.5 percent flow-rate accuracy. Water treatment plant operations—specifically flow regulation and measurement assemblies for potable water systems—represent the primary work being solicited under this code. The issuing bodies are municipal utilities and water departments; the single recent opportunity of direct relevance to the code's nominal scope comes from Lubbock's municipal water system.

The code shows limited recent state and local activity. Lubbock, Texas, is the sole jurisdiction posting relevant solicitations under this code in the available records, with the flow controller and butterfly valve ITB due May 27, 2026. A separate Philadelphia micro-purchase posting tagged to this code (B2626859, due April 24, 2026) covers OVA storage and does not align with the code's water-treatment-equipment scope, indicating potential misclassification in the state and local system. Lubbock's procurement allows local vendors within city limits a five percent price preference if the city determines the local bidder offers the best combination of price and economic development opportunity, provided the contract value does not exceed $500,000. The ITB requires firm pricing for 60 days, F.O.B. delivered, with delivery expected within two weeks; a non-mandatory site visit was scheduled for May 20, 2026.
