UNSPSC 40151515: Solenoid pumps

UNSPSC 40151515 Solenoid pumps is a Commodity code that covers portable, trailer-mounted, and specialized pump equipment for emergency response, water treatment, wastewater management, and facility operations. State and local procurement activity under this code spans county emergency-management rentals, municipal water and wastewater infrastructure upgrades, and utility capital projects. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners, cities, water departments, utilities, school districts, and regional authorities. Hillsborough County has posted multiple opportunities under this code, including a five-year contingency rental contract for hurricane-season portable pumps (ITB-26-00326, due July 31, 2026, valued at $5,589,125) and a sole-source procurement for Flygt pump equipment and OEM parts from Xylem Water Solutions U.S.A., Inc. (estimated value $16,656,100 over five years). Gwinnett County is soliciting bypass pumping services on an annual contract with four renewal options (PE77023NONST2026000000647, bids due July 10, 2026). The code also captures equipment and parts procurement for municipal chopper pumps, metering pumps, lineshaft pump assemblies, and rotary and centrifuge dewatering systems across Florida and Georgia water utilities.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida (Hillsborough County, Pinellas County, Sarasota County, Collier County, North Miami Beach, and Ocala) and Georgia (Gwinnett County, Atlanta, Cumming, and Douglasville). The City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management posted a pre-advertisement notice for competitive repair and maintenance services across nine pump classifications (PE66895NONST2026000000042, with a prequalification phase and formal IFB to follow, due May 29, 2026). Sole-source procurements are common in this category—particularly for proprietary OEM equipment, parts, and authorized-distributor services—reflecting the specialized and manufacturer-dependent nature of municipal pump infrastructure. Coastal and water-intensive jurisdictions dominate the market; Hillsborough County and City of Tampa are repeat buyers of pump rentals, replacements, and warranty services. Contractor qualifications typically require five to ten years of documented experience, proper licensing (Georgia Utility Contractors License where applicable), OSHA 10/30 certifications, and demonstrated capability with specific pump brands (Flygt, KSB, ProMinent, Gardner Denver Nash). Insurance requirements consistently include $1 million to $2 million commercial general liability, and performance and payment bonds are standard for capital projects.
