UNSPSC 30102317: Composite profiles

Long and special form of pipe which is made with more than two materials

UNSPSC 30102317 Composite profiles is a Commodity code that covers structural steel components—W-beams, H-piles, and I-beams—that state and local governments procure for infrastructure construction and repair. Recent solicitations show county transportation departments and state facilities purchasing these materials in bulk quantities for bridge and roadway projects, with pricing and delivery terms as the primary evaluation drivers. W-beams and H-piles are typically specified by grade, weight per linear foot, and length, with all deliveries F.O.B. destination and firm pricing based on net 30-day terms. Issuing bodies under this code include county highway and transportation divisions, state departments of agriculture, and county bridge maintenance programs. Greenville County, South Carolina appears as a repeat buyer, having solicited both H-piles and W-beams within the past two months for bridge yard delivery. Bidders must submit manufacturer certifications, references documenting similar work, and proof of liability insurance coverage (typically $1 million per occurrence, $2 million aggregate for comprehensive general liability).

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and South, with Greenville County posting IFB 27022 for W-beams on October 9, 2026 (due October 9, 2026) and IFB 27014 for H-piles with a due date of September 3, 2026. The State of Illinois Department of Agriculture solicited I-beams and metal plates under Basic Ordering Agreement 26406AGRBLDG4B52030 with a due date of April 30, 2026. Broward County, Florida posted a larger roadway construction contract (TRN2132636C1, due September 14, 2026) that incidentally included structural steel work as part of a wider resurfacing scope. All recent awards are made to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder; evaluation weight typically splits 99 percent on price and 1 percent on responsiveness or technical compliance. Delivery timelines from purchase order issuance are standard requirements.
