UNSPSC 71112015: Permanent magnets pipe recovery services

Services using permanent magnetic treatment used for coping with complications caused by emulsion formation, salt precipitation and asphalt and paraffin precipitation.

UNSPSC 71112015 Permanent magnets pipe recovery services is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's name suggests specialized recovery or salvage operations involving permanent magnets and pipe materials, but the two most recent opportunities posted under this code do not involve permanent magnets or pipe recovery at all. The City of DeBary, Florida posted an irrigation system upgrade project (Bid 0315) involving installation of Hunter brand controllers, valves, and flow meters for Rob Sullivan Park, with a $90,000 Engineer's estimate and a 45-calendar-day completion timeline. The School Board of Polk County, Florida posted an ITB (001MJ0727) for armored car and secure courier services to transport deposits and financial materials between school facilities and financial institutions, awarded to Mid Florida Armored & ATM Services, Inc., with an estimated annual expenditure of $200,000. Neither solicitation involves permanent magnets or pipe recovery work.

The geographic activity appears limited to Florida, with both recent opportunities originating from Florida municipalities and school districts. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated commodity definition. Business development professionals should verify whether this code assignment reflects a data-entry error in the state and local procurement system, as the actual work being solicited bears no clear connection to the permanent magnets pipe recovery services category. If pursuing opportunities under this code, confirm the intended scope directly with issuing procurement offices rather than relying on the UNSPSC categorization alone.
