UNSPSC 25111936: Marine thruster

A secondary jet or propeller on a ship or offshore rig, used for accurate maneuvering and maintenance of position.

UNSPSC 25111936 Marine thruster is a Commodity code tracking state and local government purchases of propulsion systems for marine vessels used in law enforcement, parks and recreation, and emergency response. Recent solicitations show procurement bodies buying complete marine patrol and rescue boats equipped with dual outboard engines (Mercury SeaPro models), as well as establishing master price agreements for service and repair of marine equipment across diverse manufacturer fleets. The code captures both new vessel acquisitions with integrated propulsion systems and standalone outboard motor purchases for existing boat fleets, alongside professional marine fabrication and installation services for dock infrastructure and boat lift systems.

Issuing bodies include county sheriffs' offices (Chatham County and Collier County in Georgia and Florida), county parks and recreation divisions, state procurement offices (Rhode Island Division of Purchases), and regional cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell representing multiple Washington state counties). Geographic activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, with additional recent solicitations in Oregon, Rhode Island, and Washington state through cooperative purchasing frameworks. Representative opportunities include Chatham County, Georgia's sealed bid for a 27-foot marine patrol response vessel with dual Mercury SeaPro 300 engines due August 10, 2026 under ITB 25-0147-4, funded by DHS/FEMA Port Security Grant with 30 percent M/WBE participation goals; Collier County Parks and Recreation's Quick Quote for tournament-approved ski boats with inboard GM 6.2L engines to support water instruction programs; and the Rhode Island Division of Purchases' open-enrollment master price agreement MPA 620 for statewide marine craft service, repair, and maintenance through March 31, 2028, requiring Mercury and Caterpillar diesel certifications and accepting quotes on a case-by-case basis when user agencies identify specific work scopes.
