UNSPSC 40141623: Knife gate valves

UNSPSC 40141623 Knife gate valves is a Commodity code that spans valve supply and rehabilitation work for municipal water systems. State and local governments buy replacement valves, valve kits, and related components for water main projects, booster pump stations, and water treatment facilities. Recent solicitations show demand for resilient gate valves, check valves, butterfly valves, and specialized valve assemblies—often specified by size, flange type, and manufacturer approval—as part of water infrastructure maintenance, replacement, and new construction. Work ranges from simple materials-only supply contracts to integrated procurement of valves within larger water system renovation projects.

Gwinnett County, Georgia and the City of Tampa dominate recent activity, with Gwinnett issuing multiple informal written quotations and competitive sealed bids for resilient gate valves, MJ resilient valves, and check valves between January and June 2026. The City of Tampa has solicited backflow prevention devices and fireline repair parts under a small local business enterprise set-aside and double-check detector assemblies on an as-needed basis. Beyond Georgia and Florida, the City of Sarasota (Materials Only ITB 26-31JS, due June 16, 2026), City of Calhoun Georgia (bid due June 18, 2026 for water main relocation materials including gate valves), Charlotte Water in North Carolina (valve rehabilitation RFP FY26RFP28, due April 1, 2026), Franklin County Georgia (booster pump station renovation ITB due March 24, 2026), and the Alameda County Water District in California (RFQ 252618 for CLOW gate valves, due January 30, 2026) have all posted opportunities. The geographic mix spans the Southeast (Georgia, Florida, North Carolina), Southwest (Texas), and West Coast (California), with notable concentration in Georgia water utilities. Opportunities are structured as indefinite-quantity as-needed agreements, materials-only bids, and single-project procurements, with response dates typically 7–30 days from posting and contract terms ranging from one year with renewal options to three years.
