UNSPSC 30161715: Duckboards

UNSPSC 30161715 Duckboards, a Commodity code, covers boardwalk and elevated platform construction and repair for public parks, trails, and waterfront facilities. State and local governments are actively procuring boardwalk work under this code — construction of new systems, hurricane damage restoration, and component replacement at recreation areas, parks, and public access points. Recent solicitations show concrete and asphalt trail sections paired with prestressed concrete pile-supported boardwalks, timber boardwalk restoration with stainless steel hardware replacement, and elevated observation platforms with composite or pressure-treated lumber decking. Issuing bodies include county governments (Orange County, Okaloosa County, Collier County, and Clay County in Florida; Town of Waterford in Connecticut) and special-purpose park districts. Counties dominate the activity, with repeat procurement appearing in waterfront and hurricane-recovery contexts across the state and local jurisdiction spectrum.

Florida counties have posted the majority of recent boardwalk work, reflecting the state's coastal and wetland park infrastructure. Representative opportunities include Orange County's Horizon West Trail – Phase 1A (IFB Y26754, bids due August 13, 2026, $5.66 million estimated value) combining 0.668-mile multi-use trail with an 838-linear-foot prestressed concrete pile-supported boardwalk; Collier County's Clam Pass Park – Hurricane Ian Repairs (IFB 26-8629, bids due May 22, 2026, $2.5 million base bid) encompassing restoration of 3,200 linear feet of timber boardwalk with stainless steel support system replacement; Clay County's Moccasin Slough Boardwalk (IFB 25/26-043, bids due February 12, 2026) spanning 7,642 linear feet with pressure-treated lumber and composite decking options; and Okaloosa County's Veterans Park East Lobe Expansion (ITB PW 41-26, due April 23, 2026) including concrete walking path and boardwalk construction. All require Florida contractor licensure, performance and payment bonds, comprehensive insurance, and compliance with environmental regulations; most specify FDOT or equivalent prequalification and pit-crew scheduling constraints. Activity concentrates in coastal Florida, with limited concurrent activity in Connecticut.
