UNSPSC 30265601: Ferrous alloy bar

Bar of various cross sections produced from ferrous alloy

UNSPSC 30265601 Ferrous alloy bar, a Commodity code, encompasses fabricated steel plate products and ferrous metal recovery operations that state and local governments procure for infrastructure and waste management applications. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying hot-rolled steel plates engineered for roadway construction—with custom fabrication including lifting holes, lift bars, scoring, and stencil cutouts—and ferrous metal recovery services from waste-to-energy bottom ash processing systems. DeKalb County, Georgia and the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County represent the issuing-body mix: county departments managing capital construction and special-purpose solid waste authorities operating recovery facilities. Both purchase ferrous products as part of multiyear agreements with renewal options and impose local workforce participation requirements or preferences on contractors.

DeKalb County posted an ITB on June 29, 2026 for a three-year multiyear contract to supply hot-rolled steel plates (480 units across sizes ranging from 4 feet × 4 feet to 12 feet × 12 feet) for roadway projects, with bids due July 23, 2026 and a mandatory 20% Local Small Business Enterprise subcontractor participation benchmark. The Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County issued an RFP on June 9, 2026 for equipment, operations, and maintenance of an Advanced Metals Recovery Processing System that processes approximately 150,000 tons of bottom ash annually to recover ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and aggregate, with proposals due July 16, 2026 and an initial three-year Site License Agreement term beginning September 23, 2026. Recent activity centers on Georgia and Florida; the code shows limited volume across state and local procurement overall.
