UNSPSC 25111910: Boat ramps

UNSPSC 25111910 Boat ramps is a Commodity code encompassing the construction, repair, replacement, and improvement of boat launch facilities and floating dock systems that state and local governments operate for public recreational and commercial water access. Recent solicitations show work spanning floating dock segment replacement with aluminum pontoons and pile guides, comprehensive dock rehabilitation including pile replacement and timber restoration, kayak launch dock installation with associated parking and drainage improvements, and marina boat ramp redevelopment. Issuing bodies include county governments (Beaufort County, South Carolina; Clay County, Florida; Ventura County, California) and cities (Stonecrest and Dunwoody, Georgia), reflecting a mix of county-level recreational facility management and municipal parks departments. Work solicited under the code includes detailed engineering specifications, mandatory bonds (bid bonds of 5 percent and performance and payment bonds of 100 percent are standard), S/MBE participation requirements where subcontracting occurs, liquidated damages provisions ($600 to $1,000 per calendar day are typical), and insurance minimums ranging from $1 million to $2 million general aggregate commercial general liability coverage.

Geographic activity centers on the Southeast, particularly South Carolina and Georgia, with additional recent opportunities in Florida and California. Representative recent solicitations include Beaufort County's IFB #092326 for replacement of seven floating dock segments at the Broad River Boat Landing, due September 23, 2026, requiring fabrication and installation of aluminum floating dock segments each 20 feet by 8 feet with aluminum pontoons and pile guides; the City of Stonecrest's CITB-0011-26 for parking lot improvements and kayak launch dock installation at Everett Park, due August 4, 2026, encompassing a floating kayak launch system with drainage, grading, and site improvements; and Clay County's RFB #2526089 for repairs and redevelopment at Knights Marina and Lake Shore Boat Ramp, due July 6, 2026. Performance timelines are typically 30 to 180 calendar days from Notice to Proceed, with mandatory pre-bid meetings and site visits common in the recent activity. Ventura County's demolition solicitation (Fisherman's Wharf Building Demolition, due September 11, 2026) represents a tangential scope tagged to this code—hazardous materials abatement and building demolition at a waterfront site—and does not reflect core boat ramp or dock work.
