UNSPSC 30265702: Ferrous alloy strip

Strip of various cross sections produced from ferrous alloy

UNSPSC 30265702 Ferrous alloy strip is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure fabricated steel plate and ferrous metal recovery equipment and operations for public infrastructure and waste management. Recent solicitations show demand for hot-rolled steel plates with custom fabrication (lifting holes, lift bars, scoring, stencils) for roadway construction projects, and for equipment supply and operational services for advanced ferrous metal recovery systems that process waste streams from energy facilities. The mix of issuing bodies includes county transportation and public works departments, county solid waste authorities, and related regional service providers. Procurement is structured variously as multiyear fixed-price supply contracts with firm pricing in year one and approval-gated increases thereafter, and as cost-reimbursable service agreements with performance metrics tied to recovery volumes.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast. DeKalb County, Georgia issued ITB 2026-082 on June 29, 2026 (due July 23, 2026) for a three-year steel plate supply contract covering approximately 480 hot-rolled plates sized 4 feet by 4 feet to 12 feet by 12 feet for roadway projects, with a mandatory 20% local small business enterprise subcontractor participation requirement and compliance with Georgia's First Source Jobs Ordinance requiring 50% hiring from local registries. The Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County issued RFP 26-206 on June 9, 2026 (due July 16, 2026) for equipment supply, operations, and maintenance of an Advanced Metals Recovery Processing System at its North County Landfill in West Palm Beach, Florida, which processes approximately 150,000 tons of bottom ash annually and recovered 2,330 short tons of non-ferrous metals in the prior 12 months; the contract runs an initial three years with renewal options and transition to operations on or before September 23, 2026.
