UNSPSC 40151527: Plunger pumps

UNSPSC 40151527 Plunger pumps is a Commodity code, but recent state and local opportunities show little activity directly aligned with the nominal scope. The most recent posting activity under this code comprises general hand tools and tool accessories solicitations—pry bars, brooms, brushes, buckets, hammers, wrenches, saws, screwdrivers, and shovels—rather than plunger pump equipment specifically. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span county purchasing departments, municipal governments, water districts, and school boards. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners, the City of Dallas, Eastern Municipal Water District (Riverside County, California), and Gwinnett County's Department of Financial Services have all posted recent opportunities tagged to this code, though the actual commodities procured diverge significantly from plunger pumps.

Activity appears concentrated in Florida and California, with secondary postings from Georgia and Texas. Hillsborough County issued ITB 2600285 on June 2, 2026, due June 23, 2026, for 52 line items of hand tools with an estimated five-year value of $715,540.41. The City of Dallas posted solicitation BL26-00029896 on March 26, 2026, due April 24, 2026, for a sixty-month master agreement covering hand and power tools and supplies across all city departments; the Dallas opportunity requires bidders to maintain five years' operating history, hold manufacturer authorization letters, and comply with a local vendor preference program and a $23.06 per hour living wage requirement for service contracts. Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD) in Riverside County issued RFB 3911 on April 1, 2026, due April 16, 2026, for inventory tools and tool accessories with delivery to the Operations and Maintenance Center Warehouse and performance standards requiring 80 percent on-time delivery and 98 percent quality rate. The mismatch between the code name and actual solicitation content signals that the taxonomy assignment may not reflect current procurement use or that state and local procurement systems are applying the code to a broader tools-and-equipment family than the nominal commodity designation implies.
