UNSPSC 31331405: Low alloy steel ultra violet welded structural assemblies

UNSPSC 31331405 Low alloy steel ultra violet welded structural assemblies is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of fabricated structural steel components, metal beams, plates, and related steel works for facility maintenance, infrastructure repair, and protective installations. The recent opportunities show state and local governments buying metal I-beams and plates for building and grounds maintenance, custom steel fabrication for municipal facilities, and raw steel stock for agency shops. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state departments (Texas Workforce Commission, Illinois Department of Agriculture, Georgia Forestry Commission), municipalities (City of Tucson, City of Philadelphia Mississippi), and county purchasing offices (Ware County, Georgia). The City of Tucson's steel fabrication RFP for custom doors, railings, anti-vandalism boxes, and protective infrastructure stands out as a larger scope engagement with a one-year initial term and four optional one-year renewals; that procurement carries Section 3 Program compliance requirements mandating 25 percent labor hours performed by Section 3 Workers and 5 percent by Targeted Section 3 Workers, plus DBE participation and Buy America provisions tied to HUD-related funding.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Arizona, and Mississippi. The Illinois Department of Agriculture posted a basic ordering agreement (ITA 26406AGRBLDG4B52030) on April 27, 2026 for eight 4-inch by 7.7-pound by 15-foot I-beams at $375.00 per unit and two 4-foot by 8-foot metal plates at $450.00 per unit to the Illinois State Fair Building and Grounds, with a three-day response window closing April 30, 2026; contract value totaled $3,900.00. The State of Georgia, through Ware County, solicited steel stock for the Georgia Forestry Commission shop via an invitation to bid (42000GFC0000445) posted February 12, 2026 with a February 19, 2026 deadline, requiring delivery within four weeks and prices quoted per foot, square foot, or piece. The City of Tucson's RFP 240080 for steel fabrication services (posted March 26, 2026) represents the most complex recent engagement, with project timelines of six weeks and federal compliance overlay. Response windows are typically tight—three to seven days—and most state and local buyers require vendor proof of manufacturer certification, general commercial liability insurance ($1,000,000 per occurrence standard), and compliance with prevailing wage requirements where applicable.
