UNSPSC 71122501: Water or gas control design services

Design of water or gas control services.

UNSPSC 71122501 Water or gas control design services is a Commodity code covering engineering and design work for water supply systems, irrigation infrastructure, and orphan well remediation projects that state and local governments currently procure through competitive bid, RFP, and RFQ channels. Recent solicitations show government buyers contracting for well drilling design, pump station rehabilitation plans, water treatment facility upgrades, and complete engineering packages for new water supply infrastructure. The work spans conceptual design through permitting, construction-phase administration, and regulatory coordination with environmental agencies. Issuing bodies include state environmental and energy departments (Michigan EGLE, Mississippi Oil and Gas Board), county utilities and parks departments (Hillsborough, Seminole, Sarasota, Gratiot County), city water and parks divisions (Lubbock, Lubbock, Reynolds, Wrens, Albany, Austin, Bend), and independent park and recreation districts (Boulder County Parks, Escambia County Waste Services, Silver Falls State Park via Oregon Parks and Recreation). Water well maintenance and repair services, pump station refurbishment planning, and on-call technical support dominate recent procurement activity alongside large capital design efforts for new wells, treatment plants, and infrastructure replacements.

Geographic spread centers on the Southeast (Florida, Georgia, Alabama), Midwest (Michigan, Illinois, Mississippi), and Southwest (Texas, Colorado, Oregon), with standout repeat activity in Michigan through the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy's orphan well plugging program and in Florida through county-level water and wastewater procurement. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Lubbock's RFQ for Water Treatment Plant Lake 7 Supply Project design services (design budget $1.5 million, total construction budget $17.4 million, due July 9, 2026), the Illinois Department of Natural Resources small-business-set-aside well installation and pump system for Union County State Fish and Wildlife Area (due July 9, 2026), the Mississippi Oil and Gas Board's IFB for orphan well plugging, remediation, and reclamation across nine wells in Jasper and Jones Counties (due December 18, 2026, Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act funding), and the Michigan Department of Environment's multiple direct solicitations for orphan well plugging in Gratiot and Montcalm Counties restricting bids to prequalified vendors and requiring Davis-Bacon prevailing wage compliance on federally funded work. Activity reflects sustained federal and state investment in infrastructure renewal, orphan well remediation under the Inflation Reduction Act and IIJA programs, and routine maintenance contracting for municipal water systems.
