UNSPSC 25111521: Marine anchor

A sub-marine mooring device designed to fix a ship or marine structure at a point in the sea by lodging itself in the seabed. Can be temporary or permanent.

UNSPSC 25111521 Marine anchor is a Commodity code that covers marine anchoring equipment and related hardware used by state and local government agencies operating or maintaining waterborne vessels and maritime infrastructure. The code shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code are substantively unrelated to marine anchors: one concerns equestrian facility operations, another addresses marine craft service and repair more broadly (with no anchor-specific work identified), and the third solicits law enforcement equipment through a cooperative purchasing vehicle. None of these opportunities name anchor procurement as a line item or deliverable.

The Rhode Island Division of Purchases opportunity (MPA 620, open enrollment through September 30, 2027) comes closest to code relevance, as it establishes a master price agreement for marine craft service, repair, and maintenance across the state's fleet, with MBE participation requirements and access extended to state agencies, quasi-governmental organizations, municipalities, and the Legislative and Judicial branches. However, the solicitation materials provided do not specify whether anchor service, replacement, or supply is included in the scope. Geographic activity is concentrated in Rhode Island and Washington (through Sourcewell's multi-jurisdictional cooperative), with the Pasadena equestrian opportunity representing an outlier with no relevance to marine anchoring. No state or local government has posted a recent, substantive opportunity specifically soliciting marine anchor procurement, supply, or installation under this code.
