UNSPSC 26111609: Gas turbine generator

A type of generator powered by a gas turbine engine.

UNSPSC 26111609 Gas turbine generator (Commodity) encompasses emergency backup power systems and standby generators of varying capacity that state and local governments procure for water treatment facilities, detention centers, airports, municipal utilities, and critical infrastructure. Recent solicitations show governments buying equipment ranging from 60 kW portable units to 2,500 kW multi-unit systems, often bundled with automatic transfer switches, installation, testing, and commissioning services. The work spans both turnkey design-build contracts requiring sealed engineering design and competitive equipment procurement with associated installation labor. Issuing bodies include cities, counties, special districts, state correctional systems, university systems, and regional authorities—a diverse base that treats generator procurement as essential for operational continuity during outages.

Activity is geographically widespread with recent solicitations posted from Georgia (Tifton, Cumming, Glynn County, Columbia County, White County, Chatham County, Eastman), Florida (Tampa, Collier County, Monroe County, Augusta University), Wisconsin (Milwaukee County), Arizona (Phoenix), California (state-level), and South Dakota (through Sourcewell cooperative). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Cumming, Georgia's August 7, 2026 proposal deadline for a 2,500 kW four-engine diesel generator system with switchgear and controls at its Potable Water Production Facility (competitive sealed proposals, RFP model); Chatham County, Georgia's May 5, 2026 deadline for annual service and repairs covering seven active generators ranging 5.5 to 1,000 kW at the Detention Center (competitive sealed bids, IFB model with 30% M/WBE participation goal); White County, Georgia's April 24, 2026 deadline for maintenance services on 24 stationary and portable generators across multiple county facilities (RFP with mandatory pre-proposal meeting April 2); and the City of Tampa's single-source procurement in July 2026 for SWECO Vibro-Energy Equipment parts valued at twenty thousand dollars supporting its McKay Bay Waste to Energy Facility. Contract structures vary from equipment supply alone to comprehensive design-build, maintenance, repair, and emergency response services, with bonds, insurance requirements, and performance specifications tightened for larger or longer-term agreements.
