UNSPSC 26131605: Intake structures

UNSPSC 26131605 Intake structures, a Commodity code, shows limited direct alignment with recent state and local solicitations. The code nominally covers intake structures—typically water-withdrawal infrastructure such as pumps, screens, and flow-control devices at water sources—but the recent opportunities tagged under it diverge significantly into renewable energy, electrical systems, and water well development. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily municipalities and special districts: the City of Tybee Island, Georgia; Fairfax County, Virginia; the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County, Florida; the City of Decatur, Georgia; Boulder County Parks and Open Space, Colorado; the City of Pasadena Department of Water and Power, California; Eastern Municipal Water District, California; the City of Dallas, Texas; and DeKalb County, Georgia. The mix spans cities, counties, water and power utilities, and open-space authorities, with no single repeat buyer across the recent sample.

The geographic spread covers Georgia, Virginia, Florida, Colorado, California, Texas, and South Dakota, with the most recent activity concentrated in the Southeast and Southwest. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Tybee Island's RFP for a 42 kilowatt solar array installation on the Marine Science Center roof, due November 3, 2026; Fairfax County's resolicitation RFP 2000004461 for electrical and emergency power systems installation and replacement, proposals due October 16, 2026; Boulder County Parks and Open Space's RFP-300-26 for stock water well drilling and solar pump installation on two agricultural properties, proposals due September 4, 2026 with a total contract value of $350,000; and the City of Decatur's RFP for design and engineering of a 170 kW solar photovoltaic system, 250 kW battery energy storage, and DC fast charger, proposals due October 13, 2026. The code shows little direct activity in actual intake structure procurement; recent opportunities instead reflect distributed energy resources, electrical infrastructure, and water well development that may be mislabeled or represent a shift in how jurisdictions categorize hybrid water-energy projects.
