UNSPSC 31311301: Aluminum bolted pipe assemblies

UNSPSC 31311301 Aluminum bolted pipe assemblies, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities block records no solicitations specifically for aluminum bolted pipe assemblies. Instead, state and local governments posting under or near this code are buying industrial pipe supply on as-needed basis—chiefly HDPE and PVC pipe in various diameters with fittings, couplings, and related components—and funding construction projects that integrate piping and drainage infrastructure as subordinate components rather than primary procurements. The City of Phoenix Public Works Department has twice solicited industrial pipe and miscellaneous fittings supply (IFB 26-SW-0379 posted August 2026 and IFB 27-SW-0447 posted September 2026), each a three-year initial term with two optional one-year extensions covering HDPE pipe from 1.5 to 24 inches, PVC pipe from 0.75 to 4 inches, elbows, couplings, glue, and hand tools for Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport and Phoenix's aviation facilities. The City of Augusta, Georgia posted ITB 27-116 (September 2026) for HDPE pipe, couplings, bends, and end sections for stormwater drainage on an as-needed basis, one-year term with four optional renewals. These supply-side opportunities emphasize 24- to 48-hour delivery windows, local inventory maintenance, and firm fixed pricing across multi-year terms. Larger construction projects in Florida—Collier County's Immokalee Sports Complex ($6.24 million IFB 26-8703, due November 2026), Freedom Park boardwalk repairs ($1.3 million ITB 26-8700, due November 2026), NEUF perimeter fence and irrigation ($3.4 million IFB 26-8702, due October 2026), and South County Regional Water Treatment Plant blend tank ($4.27 million Bid 26-8683R, due September 2026)—include piping and drainage work but do not isolate aluminum bolted assemblies as discrete line items.

Issuing bodies include city public works departments (Phoenix), county procurement offices (Collier County, Orange County, Santa Clara County), and city utilities (Augusta). Collier County appears as a repeat buyer across multiple infrastructure projects. Geographic activity concentrates in Florida (Collier, Orange, Brevard counties), Arizona (Phoenix), Georgia (Augusta), and California (Santa Clara County). The code shows stronger activity in bulk industrial pipe supply contracts—particularly HDPE and PVC products—than in discrete aluminum bolted assemblies. Firms pursuing this code should monitor public works RFPs and RFQs for multi-year supply agreements emphasizing rapid delivery and local inventory, alongside construction project opportunities where piping is incorporated into broader site development or utility upgrade scopes.
