UNSPSC 72141111: Gas main construction service

The building of gas main lines owned by others

UNSPSC 72141111 Gas main construction service is a Commodity code. State and local governments buying under this code procure natural gas infrastructure installation and replacement work, including polyethylene and steel main lines, service connections, valves, regulators, and related appurtenances. The recent opportunities show that while the code's nominal scope is gas mains, actual state and local procurement under this code spans a much broader range of utility distribution work—water mains, sanitary sewer force mains, stormwater drainage systems, and meter connections—suggesting the code is often applied across multiple utility disciplines. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Commerce, Georgia's RFP 27-002 for natural gas main installations and repairs (responses due November 6, 2026), and the City of Monroe, Georgia's RFP for engineering and management services overseeing the replacement of approximately 3.5 miles of steel natural gas main with polyethylene main under the PHMSA Natural Gas Distribution Infrastructure Safety and Modernization Grant Program (proposals due October 29, 2026). The issuing bodies span municipal utilities, county water authorities, city engineering departments, and special-purpose utility commissions across small and mid-sized jurisdictions. Cities and utility commissions in Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, and Texas appear most active in recent postings.

Geographic concentration is heaviest in the Southeast—particularly Georgia and Florida—with secondary activity in Texas. Recent opportunities show work in Monroe, Commerce, and Valdosta (Georgia); Calhoun and Fort Valley (Georgia); Oviedo, Leesburg, Casselberry, and Plant City (Florida); Lubbock (Texas); and Pascagoula (Mississippi). Issuing bodies include municipal utilities (City of Commerce Water Department, City of Monroe), county water and sewer authorities (Pike County Water & Sewerage Authority, Brunswick-Glynn County Joint Water and Sewer Commission), and special-purpose utility commissions (Fort Valley Utility Commission, Calhoun Utilities). Contract values range widely, from under $500,000 for localized mains work to $3.5 million to $9.36 million for phased water and sewer system upgrades. Recent solicitations show substantial federal involvement—Davis-Bacon prevailing wage mandates and Build America/Buy America requirements appear in multiple Florida water main replacements, while PHMSA grant-funded gas main replacement work in Monroe, Georgia signals federal co-funding of natural gas infrastructure modernization. Bid response deadlines cluster in October and November 2026, with some earlier opportunities already closed.
