UNSPSC 71112005: Well flow measurement services

Services to measure the well production or injection rate.

UNSPSC 71112005 Well flow measurement services is a Commodity code that covers the installation, testing, and measurement of flow-metering equipment in water supply and irrigation systems for state and local water utilities, municipalities, and school districts. State and local governments buy under this code primarily when procuring specialized flow-measurement instrumentation as part of water-system capital projects, aquifer-testing programs, and irrigation infrastructure improvements. The kinds of work solicited include the supply and installation of flow meters for irrigation systems, the performance of aquifer and well-pumping tests to measure water levels and well capacity, and the technical analysis of flow data to support infrastructure planning and rehabilitation decisions. Issuing bodies are typically municipal water departments, state water resource agencies, and city public-works departments overseeing water or irrigation infrastructure.

Recent activity is concentrated in Florida and Missouri. The City of DeBary, Florida issued a competitive bid (Bid 03-15) in 2015 for Rob Sullivan Park irrigation improvements, which included installation of a Hunter FCT-300 flow meter and related components as part of a $90,000 irrigation-system upgrade. The Missouri Department of Natural Resources, Water Resources Center, solicited proposals (ITB 300000250901761, due June 24, 2026) to perform pumping tests on six groundwater observation wells across the state using USGS techniques, with measurement of static and dynamic water levels and analysis of well-specific capacity. The City of Orem, Utah issued an RFP (OREM21023561, due May 28, 2026) for engineering services to design and manage construction of a new drinking-water well, which included data collection and analysis as part of the planning phase. The code also captured activity in school-district procurement; however, the School Board of Polk County, Florida ITB 001-MJ-0727 (due June 22, 2026) for armored car services is unrelated to well-flow measurement and appears to be a misclassification. Current opportunity volume under the code is sparse, with most recent activity centered on municipal water-supply and state environmental-monitoring projects.
