UNSPSC 31101900: Investment castings and casting assemblies

Objects and assemblies formed to or near their desired shape by introducing molten metal into investment molds.

UNSPSC 31101900 Investment castings and casting assemblies is a Class code, but the recent state and local activity tagged under it bears little relevance to the code's nominal scope. The City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management posted a multi-step sealed bid process for pump repair, maintenance, installation, and parts replacement services across nine pump classifications — vertical turbine, horizontal split case, submersible, centrifugal, vertical chopper, progressing cavity, piston type positive displacement, Watson Marlow, and vacuum and hydraulic pumps. This work involves full-service support including procurement, installation, disassembly, inspection, transportation, repair to OEM standards, reassembly, startup, and detailed photographic documentation. The solicitation requires vendors to operate or have full access to a functional machine shop with field service equipment and personnel certified in pump shaft alignment, welding, and machinist work. The code shows little relevant recent activity; the single identified opportunity does not align with investment casting or casting assembly procurement.

The geographic scope is limited to Georgia based on the recent record. The City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management, a municipal water utility, issued the prequalification and IFB for pump services with a May 29, 2026 response deadline. Vendors must supply 90 percent of required parts within 24 hours and the remainder within 72 hours, provide a one-year warranty on parts and services, and submit itemized annual purchase reports. Watson Marlow and Flygt pump work requires manufacturer-certified distributor status. The City reserves discretion to increase or decrease quantities without penalty and is under no obligation to award exclusively to a single bidder or commit to a minimum contract amount. Payment terms offer a five percent discount for payment within 10 days, otherwise net 30 calendar days; vendors bear all costs for tools, equipment, safety equipment, plant and facility inspections, and may be required to reimburse the City for authorized travel and lodging expenses.
