UNSPSC 31102102: Ferrous alloy ceramic mold casting

Ferrous alloy object cast from ceramic molds

UNSPSC 31102102 Ferrous alloy ceramic mold casting is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity encompasses pump repair, maintenance, and parts services rather than ceramic mold casting operations. The City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management posted a pre-advertisement notice in May 2026 seeking vendors to provide comprehensive repair, installation, and parts replacement for nine classifications of pumps—including vertical turbine, horizontal split case, submersible, centrifugal, vertical chopper, progressing cavity, piston-type positive displacement, Watson Marlow, and vacuum and hydraulic pumps. Work scope spans procurement, disassembly, detailed inspection, transportation, repair to OEM standards, reassembly, startup services, and photographic documentation, with vendors required to maintain functional machine shops, field service equipment, and personnel certified in pump shaft alignment, welding, machinist work, and permit-required confined space entry. All work must meet OSHA standards, lock out/tag out procedures, and manufacturer safety recommendations. The City of Atlanta appears as the primary issuing body in the recent-opportunities block, representing a municipal department.

The geographic spread in the recent-opportunities block is limited to Georgia. The City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management issued the solicitation as a multi-step sealed bid process with prequalification, followed by an Invitation for Bid (IFB), with a response deadline of May 29, 2026. Vendors must supply 90 percent of required parts within 24 hours and the remaining 10 percent within 72 hours, provide a one-year warranty on parts and services, and submit itemized annual purchase reports to the Chief Procurement Officer within 15 days of the contract anniversary date. No award value or budget range is disclosed. The code's recent activity shows a mismatch between its nominal scope—ceramic mold casting—and the work actually being procured, which centers on pump services and infrastructure maintenance.
