UNSPSC 40141617: Angle globe valves

UNSPSC 40141617 Angle globe valves is a Commodity code that spans valve components and assemblies used in municipal water infrastructure—specifically gate valves, check valves, butterfly valves, and integrated backflow prevention devices purchased by water utilities, treatment facilities, and departments for intake, distribution, and treatment operations. State and local water departments dominate the buyer base, with recent solicitations concentrated among Gwinnett County (Georgia), the City of Tampa, the City of Sarasota, the City of Charlotte, Franklin County (Georgia), and the Alameda County Water District. Work under this code runs across materials-only ITBs for main replacement projects, as-needed supply contracts for valve stock, and specialized rehabilitation services; representative recent opportunities include the City of Sarasota's ITB 2631JS for pipe, fittings, and appurtenances for the Small AC Water Main Replacement-FY24 project (bids due June 16, 2026, materials must conform to the Potable Water Approved Material List with twelve-month warranty and delivery within ninety days), the City of Tampa's ITB 26P00305 for backflow prevention and fireline repair parts under a sheltered-market Small Local Business Enterprise procurement (sealed bids due June 22, 2026 at 3:00 p.m., estimated contract value $75,000, vendor must stock at least two items at all times and deliver within 14 working days), and Gwinnett County's April 2026 informal written quotation for Mueller resilient gate and tapping valves (twelve twelve-inch A-2362 RWGV and T-2361 tapping valves, delivery F.O.B. Destination, freight prepaid).

Geographic activity clusters heavily in Georgia—Gwinnett County, Franklin County, Bryan County, and Calhoun—with secondary recent activity in Florida (Sarasota, Tampa), North Carolina (Charlotte), Texas (Fort Worth), and California (Alameda County). Gwinnett County has emerged as a consistent repeat buyer, issuing multiple informal quotations and competitive sealed bids between January and June 2026 for resilient seat gates, check valves, butterfly valves, RBX kits, and MJ resilient valves across its Department of Water Resources and treatment facilities. Most procurements are time-sensitive, with response windows of two to four weeks; vendors face standard requirements including Potable Water Approved Material List compliance where applicable, F.O.B. Destination delivery with freight prepaid, minimum insurance coverage, registration and tax compliance in the issuing state, and where applicable, adherence to Davis-Bacon Act, Build America Buy America Act, and E-Verify requirements. Small business set-asides and local preference programs appear in select municipal solicitations (Tampa SLBE discount, Charlotte M/W/SBE utilization, Fort Worth 30 percent small business goal), but most regional and county procurements do not carry published set-aside designations.
