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 covering measurement and testing work on water wells to assess performance and aquifer characteristics. State and local governments procure under this code primarily through water resource departments, municipal water utilities, and environmental agencies that manage groundwater observation networks or public water supply systems. The work involves pumping tests, water-level measurement, aquifer-performance analysis, and technical reporting following established hydrogeological protocols. Recent solicitations show the code in use for both routine maintenance testing on existing observation wells and planning activities tied to new water-supply development.

The Missouri Department of Natural Resources posted the most active recent opportunity under this code: an IFB (Solicitation 300000250901761) issued June 8, 2026, with response due June 24, 2026, for pumping tests on six groundwater observation wells across Forest City, St. Joseph, Weston, Independence, Atherton, and Carrollton. The scope requires USGS-standard aquifer testing, static and dynamic water-level measurement, well performance analysis, and written reports; contractors must hold active water-well permits and demonstrate at least two years' well-pumping and aquifer-testing experience. A second opportunity from the City of Orem, Utah (RFP OREM21023561, due May 28, 2026) involved engineering services for a new drinking-water well including design and construction management, which includes measurement and data-collection components related to well flow and performance but sits in broader engineering scope. Geographic activity concentrates in Missouri and Utah based on recent postings; the source reflects limited recent activity under this code nationally. Qualification requirements across opportunities emphasize state water-well licensing, technical experience in pumping-test methods, and compliance with state permitting and E-Verify protocols.
