UNSPSC 31102410: Copper v process casting

Copper object cast from v process molds

UNSPSC 31102410 Copper v process casting is a Commodity code that in recent state and local practice covers repair, maintenance, installation, and parts replacement services for industrial pumps across municipal water and wastewater facilities. The single recent opportunity on file shows little alignment between the code's nominal scope (copper casting) and the work actually being solicited — the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management's May 2026 IFB sought pump repair and field service support across nine pump classifications, including vertical turbine, horizontal split case, submersible, centrifugal, vertical chopper, progressing cavity, piston positive displacement, Watson Marlow, and vacuum and hydraulic pumps. The code appears to see minimal state and local procurement activity centered on its abstract definition.

The City of Atlanta's pump services IFB, posted May 8, 2026 with response deadline May 29, 2026, required vendors to maintain a functional machine shop, field service equipment, and personnel certified in pump shaft alignment, welding, and machinist work, including permit-required confined space entry training. The solicitation mandated 90 percent parts availability within 24 hours and 10 percent within 72 hours, one-year warranties, and OEM-standard repair to original specifications; Watson Marlow work required manufacturer-certified distributors and Xylem-certified support for Flygt pumps. The prequalification phase preceded the formal bid submission. This opportunity represents the primary recent state and local activity visible under the code, though the mismatch between the code's copper-casting definition and the pump-services scope suggests either miscoding or minimal direct use of the commodity in public procurement.
