UNSPSC 31102411: Brass v process casting

Brass object cast from v process molds

UNSPSC 31102411 Brass V process casting is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity encompasses pump repair, maintenance, installation, and parts replacement services across diverse pump classifications rather than casting procurement narrowly construed. The City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management's May 2026 IFB solicitation for nine groups of pump types—including vertical turbine, horizontal split case, submersible, centrifugal, vertical chopper, progressing cavity, piston-type positive displacement, Watson Marlow, and vacuum and hydraulic pumps—demonstrates that work under this code involves full-service field support including disassembly, inspection, transportation, OEM-standard repair, reassembly, startup, and detailed reporting. Vendors must operate or access a functional machine shop, field service equipment, and certified personnel in pump shaft alignment, welding, and machinist work, with confined-space-entry training mandatory. Service-level requirements include 90 percent of parts delivery within 24 hours and the remainder within 72 hours, one-year warranties on parts and services, and compliance with OSHA standards, lock out/tag out procedures, and all applicable safety codes. Municipal watershed and water utility departments appear to be the primary issuing bodies under this code.

The City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management in Fulton County, Georgia posted the most recent opportunity on May 8, 2026, with a prequalification phase deadline of May 29, 2026 preceding a formal IFB. Manufacturer-certified distributor requirements for Watson Marlow (manufacturer-certified) and Xylem Flygt (Xylem manufacturer-certified) pumps establish technology integration barriers. The source identifies no geographic spread beyond this single Atlanta opportunity and no repeating issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities block. Vendors are responsible for their own tools, equipment, and safety equipment, and may be required to reimburse the City for authorized travel and lodging for onsite facility verification visits. A pre-solicitation conference will provide additional details prior to formal bid submission. No contract value or budget ceiling appears in the available documentation.
