UNSPSC 26101517: Electric inboard motor

A device that is powered by electricity among the energy switching machines installed inside a ship.

UNSPSC 26101517 Electric inboard motor is a Commodity code that covers marine propulsion equipment state and local governments procure for operational vessels, aquatic facilities, and waterfront infrastructure projects. Recent solicitations reveal that the code sees sporadic application across diverse marine contexts: pond aeration systems with electric circulators, submersible pump installations for engineered wetlands, aquaculture research vessel engines, marine patrol and enforcement vessels, and derelict-vessel removal equipment. The issuing bodies are geographically dispersed county and city agencies, state departments managing natural resources and marine operations, and special-purpose districts overseeing coastal or waterway management. Procurement notice types vary widely, from ITBs and RFQs for vessel purchases to RFPs for integrated marine infrastructure projects. Work being solicited includes turnkey boat-and-motor packages with specification compliance verification, retrofit and replacement of existing marine systems, and specialized equipment integration such as electrofishing systems for research vessels.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida (Palm Bay, Escambia County, Sarasota County, Orange County, Chatham County via Georgia, and Clay County) and select Rocky Mountain and northeastern jurisdictions (Colorado Parks and Wildlife, Maine state departments). The City of Palm Bay ITB 54-ITB-26 (response due October 27, 2026) requests pond improvements including three AerationPlus 1800 circulators with electrical infrastructure at Cadillac Drive and a solar-powered submersible pump system (14.89 gallons per minute) at Robert J. Conlan Boulevard, totaling $550,000 in Florida Department of Environmental Protection grant funding. The State of Colorado CPW and State of Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife have posted multiple RFQs for complete aluminum work-boat packages with integrated outboard or inboard engines, ranging from 16 to 20-foot vessels equipped with fish finders, radar, and trolling motors, with delivery deadlines spanning May through mid-2027. Sarasota County Transit RFQ 2026QQ844 (due October 26, 2026) seeks buy-america audit and inspection services for 11 Chevrolet Arboc ParaTransit vehicles, capped at $50,000 total across three service lines. The code shows steady procurement rhythm among state natural-resources agencies and coastal county governments but limited activity among municipal departments outside Florida, suggesting strong regional concentration in environmental management and marine enforcement contexts.
