UNSPSC 40151721: Water pump spare parts

UNSPSC 40151721 Water pump spare parts is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure pump repair parts, replacement components, and spare inventory to sustain water, wastewater, and reclaimed water treatment operations. Recent solicitations show demands ranging from generic pressure gauge inventories and hose pump seals to proprietary replacement components for specific equipment lines (Flygt, Watson-Marlow Bredel, Seepex, SANITAIRE, Milton Roy, Ashcroft, Vanton). The issuing bodies span water authorities, county departments of watershed management and public works, municipal water and wastewater utilities, transit authorities, and specialized districts. Water Resources Departments and Public Utilities divisions represent the largest demand segment, often managing pump inventories across dozens of treatment plants, lift stations, and pump stations. Sole-source and single-source procurements appear frequently, reflecting the capital-equipment-lock-in typical of utility infrastructure—equipment standardization across a jurisdiction's fleet drives repeated purchases of OEM-certified parts from authorized distributors rather than competitive sourcing.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, Georgia, and Texas, with secondary activity in California, Oregon, Arizona, New Mexico, and South Carolina. Hillsborough County, Florida; the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management; and Floyd County, Georgia each show multiple recent opportunities. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County, Georgia requesting Milton Roy pump filter maintenance parts under IWQ with response due October 15, 2026; the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management soliciting Watson-Marlow Bredel hose pump parts under IFB with bids due September 16, 2026; and Hillsborough County conducting a sole-source procurement for Flygt pump equipment and OEM replacement parts from Xylem Water Solutions U.S.A., Inc., with an estimated five-year value of $16,656,100. The code also captures broader repair-and-maintenance frameworks in which spare parts are ordered on an as-needed basis—the City of Tarpon Springs, Florida's electric motor and pump repair ITB (responses received June 17, 2026) and Hillsborough County's five-year water and wastewater parts procurement from TSC Jacobs, Inc. ($4,934,870 estimated value) both incorporate spare-parts purchasing within larger maintenance-service contracts. Sole-source notices dominate the recent-opportunities block, suggesting limited vendor competition in the regional OEM-authorization landscape; competitive ITBs and RFQs tend to focus on commodity items such as gauges, hoses, and generic pump components rather than proprietary OEM parts.
