UNSPSC 71161503: Well site inspection or equipment testing services

Services to inspect or test equipment at the well site.

UNSPSC 71161503 Well site inspection or equipment testing services (Commodity) spans work that state and local governments solicit for environmental site assessment, landfill gas system evaluation, and water treatment facility testing. Recent opportunities show substantial variance in scope and issuing bodies. The Dalton-Whitfield Solid Waste Authority (Georgia) issued an ITB on April 17, 2026 for landfill gas collection and control system construction and installation—a project encompassing surveying, well installation, piping networks, condensate management, and monitoring equipment at an existing municipal landfill, with a mandatory pre-proposal conference on May 1, 2026 and bids due May 21, 2026. The Eastern Municipal Water District in Riverside County, California issued an RFP on February 24, 2026 for a Design-Build-Finance-Own-Operate-Maintain agreement to convert digester gas into renewable natural gas across three regional water reclamation facilities, with site tours scheduled for March 18–19, 2026 and proposals due April 13, 2026. These two opportunities—both involving gas extraction, testing, and system performance validation—represent the code's core activity in state and local procurement. A third opportunity from the City of DeBary, Florida (April 13, 2026) for irrigation system improvements and a fourth from the City of College Park, Georgia (January 28, 2026) for executive search services appear unrelated to the code's stated scope and likely represent tagging mismatches in the source data.

The geographic spread of relevant activity includes Georgia and California, with single occurrences in each. Issuing bodies are special-purpose districts (solid waste authority, water reclamation district) alongside municipal governments. The two substantive opportunities carry distinct contracting models: the Dalton-Whitfield ITB sets a single unit-price contract with 120–150 calendar day completion windows and liquidated damages of $2,000–$5,000 per day; the EMWD RFP seeks a long-term concession with 15–20 year terms, revenue-sharing arrangements, and completion targeted for June 2029. The Dalton-Whitfield opportunity requires Georgia licensure, five years' minimum landfill-gas experience, completion of five similar prior projects, and 50 percent on-site labor performance. The EMWD opportunity requires five years of direct DBFOOM digester-gas experience, audited financial statements, and bonding capacity estimated at $24 million combined. Neither opportunity specifies set-asides for disadvantaged, minority-owned, or small businesses.
