UNSPSC 25112000: Marine transportation support systems and equipment

Marine transportation support systems and equipment refer to the various tools, technologies, and systems used to facilitate the safe and efficient movement of goods and people by water. Any item used or intended for use in conjunction with boats or water related activities.

UNSPSC 25112000 Marine transportation support systems and equipment is a Class code that encompasses commercial permits, licensing, and concession agreements for water-based charter and tour operations at public facilities. State and local governments under this code are procuring permits and concession contracts that govern commercial use of public waters and parks, including charter fishing and guided tour services. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code are county and state park authorities managing public waterways and recreational facilities. The scope includes vessel and operator licensing requirements, insurance mandates, regulatory compliance (USCG certifications, state vessel registration), and ongoing operational reporting and fee collection.

Recent activity clusters in the Southeast, with two documented opportunities in Florida and Georgia. Sarasota County is awarding 60 commercial water-based charter boat and tour operator permits across five designated park locations under IFB 262874FB, with bids due August 18, 2026; permit holders must maintain $1,000,000 in marine liability insurance and pay annual fees starting at $1,200 per permit, with an initial one-year term and four optional one-year renewals. The Georgia Department of Natural Resources issued an RFQ for a five-year concession contract to provide outfitter services at Smithgall Woods State Park, due October 5, 2026. A third solicitation from DeKalb County (ITB 2026-076-ITB for DeKalb Tennis Center reconstruction, due July 13, 2026) appears unrelated to marine transportation and likely reflects a coding mismatch in the source data.
