UNSPSC 40151517: Sewage pumps

UNSPSC 40151517 Sewage pumps (Commodity) covers the rental, purchase, and service of submersible, centrifugal, grinder, and specialty pumps deployed in wastewater treatment and lift station infrastructure across state and local water utilities. State and local governments are actively procuring rental equipment, replacement pumps, repair services, and parts supply contracts to maintain aging lift stations and support treatment facility operations, with recent solicitations spanning counties, cities, water authorities, and special districts across multiple states.

County water departments and municipal utilities dominate the issuing-body mix. Hillsborough County (Florida) has posted multiple solicitations for centrifuge mobile sludge dewatering unit rentals (ITB2600312, estimated $6,623,000 over five years; ITB2600167, estimated $6,623,000) and Flygt pump equipment and repair services (SS2600273, estimated $16,656,100 sole source to Xylem Water Solutions for five years). The City of Daytona Beach has issued bids for lift station replacements (2637ITB for Lift Station #45, 2623ITB for Lift Station #62) featuring submersible Flygt pumps. The City of Orlando solicited comprehensive lift station improvement projects (IFB26-0001 valued at approximately $6,500,000 for five lift stations). Florida dominates recent activity, followed by Georgia, Connecticut, Mississippi, and California. Pinellas County (Florida), the City of Tarpon Springs (Florida), the Simsbury Water Pollution Control Authority (Connecticut), and the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management (Georgia) are repeat procurers of pump equipment, repair services, and parts. Representative recent opportunities include Hillsborough County's July 2026 ITB for centrifuge mobile sludge dewatering unit equipment rental with a due date of July 27, 2026, and the City of Pembroke Pines' June 2026 RFQ for replacement submersible pumps and control panels for Lift Station #74. The City of Gallup (New Mexico) issued ITB-2621 in June 2026 for a trailer-mounted diesel-driven centrifugal pump system with Tier 4 Final emissions compliance, and the Southwestern Illinois Correctional Center solicited removal and replacement of Hydromatic lift station pumps in February 2026. Sole source procurements and single-source awards appear frequently, with Xylem Water Solutions, DXP Enterprises, TriNova Inc., Barney's Pumps, and Carl Eric Johnson identified as exclusive vendors for proprietary pump lines (Flygt, Grundfos/Yeomans, ProMinent, KSB, and other OEM-specific equipment). Competitive sealed bid processes for equipment purchase and rental dominate the solicitation types, with IFB and ITB formats standard. Repair and maintenance services contracts typically include emergency response requirements, parts availability standards, and warranty provisions. Florida State Prevailing Wage rates and Davis-Bacon wage requirements apply to federally funded or state-revolving-fund projects. E-Verify compliance, drug-free workplace certification, and comprehensive insurance (general liability, workers' compensation, pollution liability) are consistently mandated across solicitations. Set-asides for small businesses, SBEs, and DBEs appear in select California and Florida procurements but are not universal. This code shows sustained, geographically dispersed procurement activity with high contract values and recurring buyer engagement in wastewater infrastructure modernization.
