UNSPSC 25111920: Marine fenders

UNSPSC 25111920 Marine fenders is a Commodity code. State and local governments use this code to procure marine equipment and vessel components, though recent solicitation activity shows the code is being applied broadly to marine craft procurement—including complete vessels, outboard motors, boat lifts, and marine construction services—rather than fenders specifically. The pattern reflects state and local waterway-management and law-enforcement agencies acquiring new marine assets or upgrading existing docking and vessel-support infrastructure. Issuing bodies include county sheriff's offices and marine patrol divisions (Chatham County, Georgia; Marion County, Oregon; Collier County, Florida), state purchasing cooperatives (Rhode Island Division of Purchases), county parks and recreation departments (Collier County), and state-level cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell on behalf of participating entities across multiple states). Single-purchase transactions and one-time vessel acquisitions dominate, alongside open-enrollment master price agreements for ongoing service and repair.

Recent activity is concentrated in Florida and Georgia, with secondary activity in Oregon and Rhode Island, plus a multistate cooperative procurement vehicle. Chatham County, Georgia has issued multiple solicitations: an ITB for one 27-foot-4-inch center-console aluminum marine patrol response vessel (bids due August 10, 2026) and an earlier ITB for two Mercury outboard motors (bids due May 4, 2026). Collier County, Florida Parks and Recreation Division solicited purchase of ski boats and trailers through Quick Quote processes (dates in March and April 2026), while Collier County Sheriff's Office issued competitive sealed bids for design and installation of a 12-foot-by-4-foot finger pier and 16,000-pound boat-lift system at Caxambas Park in Marco Island (bids due April 3, 2026 and May 14, 2026 in two iterations). Marion County, Oregon Sheriff's Office solicited jet-boat frame fabrication through RFQ (due April 22, 2026). The State of Rhode Island Division of Purchases opened enrollment for MPA 620, a statewide master price agreement for marine craft service, repair, and maintenance across multiple manufacturers (enrollment through September 30, 2027), requiring Mercury and Caterpillar diesel certifications. A multistate Sourcewell cooperative procurement issued an RFP for law enforcement equipment (due June 16, 2026) with participation from Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties in Washington and other jurisdictions nationwide.
