UNSPSC 31102307: Magnesium plaster mold casting

Magnesium object cast from plaster molds

UNSPSC 31102307 Magnesium plaster mold casting is a Commodity code, though the recent state and local activity under this code does not reflect magnesium plaster casting work. The City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management posted a multi-step sealed bid solicitation (PE66062NONST2026000000372) in May 2026 seeking comprehensive pump 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 code appears to be misapplied to this opportunity; the actual work being solicited involves full-service pump support including disassembly, detailed inspection, transportation, repair to OEM standards, reassembly, startup, and field services. Vendors must own or have full access to a functional machine shop, field service equipment, and personnel certified in pump shaft alignment, welding, and machinist work, with training in permit-required confined space entry. All work must comply with OSHA standards, lock out/tag out procedures, and applicable safety codes. The solicitation requires 90 percent of required parts supplied within 24 hours and the remaining 10 percent within 72 hours, a one-year warranty on parts and services, and itemized annual purchase reports to the Chief Procurement Officer. Watson Marlow work must be performed by manufacturer-certified distributors, and Flygt work by Xylem manufacturer-certified distributors. Vendors provide their own tools, equipment, and safety gear, with all costs for inspections and authorized travel borne by the vendor.

The City of Atlanta is the only issuing body reflected in recent opportunities under this code. The solicitation closed May 29, 2026 and proceeded through a prequalification phase prior to a formal Invitation for Bid; the city reserves the right 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 if invoices are paid within 10 days, otherwise net 30 calendar days. No set-aside designations or incumbent vendor information is disclosed. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (magnesium plaster mold casting) and the actual pump repair and maintenance work being solicited signals that this code shows little relevant recent state and local activity aligned with its technical definition.
