UNSPSC 31101903: Steel investment casting

Steel object cast from investment molds

UNSPSC 31101903 Steel investment casting is a Commodity code that encompasses metal castings and cast components used in industrial equipment and infrastructure systems. State and local government purchasing under this code reflects actual procurement of cast parts for water systems, pumps, hydraulic equipment, and related mechanical assemblies — though recent solicitation activity shows the code capturing broader pump repair and parts replacement services rather than casting procurement in isolation. The issuing bodies span municipal utilities and city departments, with water management and watershed agencies representing the primary customer base for cast components and integrated equipment repair.

The City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management posted an IFB on May 8, 2026 (due May 29, 2026) for multi-step sealed-bid procurement of repair, maintenance, installation, and parts replacement services across nine pump classifications including Vertical Turbine, Horizontal Split Case, Submersible, Centrifugal, Vertical Chopper, Progressing Cavity, Piston Type Positive Displacement, Watson Marlow, and Vacuum and Hydraulic Pumps. The solicitation requires vendors to demonstrate access to a functional machine shop, field service equipment, and personnel certified in pump shaft alignment, welding, and machinist work, with 90 percent of parts sourced within 24 hours and the remainder within 72 hours; the City reserves the right to adjust quantities without penalty and imposed no disclosed minimum award value. Georgia represents the primary recent jurisdiction for activity under this code, with municipal water and utility infrastructure driving demand for cast pump components and related repair services.
