UNSPSC 31121017: Composite v process machined castings

UNSPSC 31121017 Composite v process machined castings is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity encompasses pump repair, maintenance, and parts replacement services across multiple pump classifications. The City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management posted a pre-advertisement notice in May 2026 (due May 29, 2026) seeking qualified vendors to provide comprehensive repair and maintenance for nine pump groups — Vertical Turbine, Horizontal Split Case, Submersible, Centrifugal, Vertical Chopper, Progressing Cavity, Piston Type Positive Displacement, Watson Marlow, and Vacuum and Hydraulic Pumps — across its facilities. Successful bidders 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 all work performed to OEM standards and compliant with OSHA, lock out/tag out procedures, and manufacturer safety recommendations. The scope includes procurement, installation, disassembly, detailed inspection, transportation, repair, reassembly, startup services, and photographic documentation, with vendors required to supply 90 percent of parts within 24 hours and the remaining 10 percent within 72 hours, plus provide a one-year warranty on parts and services.

The most recent activity centers in Georgia, with the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management conducting a multi-step sealed bid process that includes a prequalification phase followed by an Invitation for Bid. The City requires vendors to bear costs for plant and facility inspections and potential authorized travel and lodging expenses for onsite verification visits. Vendors may use subcontractors with prior City approval, though primary vendors retain sole responsibility for all work. Watson Marlow pump work must be performed by manufacturer-certified distributors, and Flygt pump work by Xylem manufacturer-certified distributors, establishing specific infrastructure and certification requirements. 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 for payment within 10 days; otherwise net 30 calendar days apply.
