UNSPSC 31161705: Cap nuts

UNSPSC 31161705 Cap nuts is a Commodity code that designates a discrete fastener product, yet state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal alignment with the nominal scope. The single recent opportunity on record—the City of Lavonia, Georgia water treatment plant improvements project (Solicitation PE66940NONST2026000000005, IFB due May 26, 2026)—is a comprehensive municipal infrastructure construction project involving site work, mechanical and chemical systems installation, and facility upgrades. Cap nuts as discrete fastening components would be incidental materials within such a project rather than the primary procured item, and the solicitation does not isolate fastener supply or specification. This mismatch suggests the code may have been applied as a catch-all taxonomy tag for construction materials procurement rather than reflecting an intentional, direct buy of cap nuts themselves. State and local procurement under this code shows little recent activity focused on cap nuts as a standalone commodity line.

The City of Lavonia's water treatment plant bid—a sealed competitive procurement with a May 7, 2026 pre-bid conference and May 12, 2026 question deadline, managed by DCCM—requires a Georgia Utility Contractor license, prevailing wage compliance under Davis-Bacon, and DBE participation goals of 4.0% for minority-owned and women-owned businesses. Contract documents are available from PeoplesQuigley | DCCM for $250 per set. The project, partially funded through the Georgia Environmental Finance Authority State Revolving Fund, is subject to the Build America, Buy America Act and includes liquidated damages of $500 per day for a 270-calendar-day performance period. Beyond this single Georgia municipal opportunity, the source does not support additional state or local solicitations under UNSPSC 31161705, indicating limited current procurement activity under this Commodity code in the state and local market.
