UNSPSC 23153413: Glass insertion pick up PU application

UNSPSC 23153413 Glass insertion pick up PU application is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity has been applied to water treatment plant equipment procurement — specifically the purchase of flow control and valve assemblies for potable water systems. The City of Lubbock, Texas has posted an Invitation to Bid (ITB 26-19653-YB) for a replacement rate of flow controller and 16-inch butterfly valve assembly for its North Water Treatment Plant, requiring a venturi-type controller with a 0-144 inches water column flow range paired with an AWWA C504-compliant butterfly valve. The equipment must fit within a 46.5-inch space, be factory-assembled and tested to 0.5 percent accuracy, and feature a cast iron body constructed to ASTM A536 Grade 65-45-12 specifications with Type 316 stainless steel throat liner and NSF 61 approved epoxy coating for potable water applications. Vendors supply equipment and manuals only; the City handles installation. The code sees activity from municipal water utilities and special-purpose districts operating public water treatment infrastructure.

The City of Lubbock is the identified issuing body for recent opportunities under this code. The ITB was posted May 12, 2026, with a sealed-bid response deadline of May 27, 2026, at 3:00 p.m., submitted electronically through Bonfire or by hand delivery to the Director of Purchasing and Contract Management. A non-mandatory site visit was scheduled for May 20, 2026, at the North Water Treatment Plant. Bids must be firm for a minimum of sixty days on an F.O.B. delivered basis. The City applies a local-vendor preference allowing local bidders whose principal place of business is within city limits to match non-resident bids within five percent when the City determines best value and economic development benefit, though this preference applies only to contracts under $500,000. The City reserves the right to extend contract terms to other local governmental entities including Frenship Independent School District, Lubbock County, Lubbock Independent School District, and Texas Tech University through interlocal purchasing agreements. No specific budget or award value is listed. The incumbent equipment was manufactured by BIF; the procurement is open to qualified vendors meeting stated specifications.
