UNSPSC 72141119: Aqueduct construction service

The building of aqueducts owned by others

UNSPSC 72141119 Aqueduct construction service, a Commodity code, encompasses state and local procurement for water infrastructure stabilization and restoration work, including bank stabilization, culvert replacement, canal clearing, stream restoration, bulkhead replacement, drainage improvements, and related earthwork. Recent solicitations show the code captures a broader set of erosion control and water-management construction than the abstract "aqueduct" title suggests; state and local buyers are actively purchasing riprap installation, gabion work, concrete piping, dredging support, and embankment stabilization across multiple geographies and jurisdiction types. The issuing bodies span state departments (Arizona), counties (Brevard, Hillsborough, Orange, Williamson, Collier, Indian River, Sarasota, Monroe), cities (Palm Bay, Altamonte Springs, Cibolo, Lubbock, Bartow, New Smyrna Beach, DeBary, Doraville, Flowery Branch, West Jordan, Broward, Santa Clara), and special-purpose districts and authorities (Atlanta Beltline, Georgia World Congress Center Authority, DeKalb County School District, Salt Lake City Public Utilities). Orange County, Florida and Williamson County, Texas appear as repeat buyers with multiple concurrent solicitations.

Activity concentrates in Florida, Texas, Arizona, California, Georgia, Utah, and South Carolina, with recent large-value projects including Orange County's Horizon West Trail Phase 1A ($5.66 million, sealed bid due August 13, 2026), Hillsborough County's Saffold Road bridge replacement ($4.39 million, IFB due June 10, 2026), Broward County's Pine Island Road capacity expansion (30 percent County Business Enterprise goal, sealed bid due June 2, 2026), and Sarasota County's Alligator Creek Stream Restoration spanning 3.3 miles with a pre-bid meeting and site visit (sealed bid due April 14, 2026). A State of Arizona IFB for Valley Road Bank Stabilization in Yavapai County (ST2606) with grading, Reno mattresses, and riprap installation is due August 11, 2026 and requires mandatory site visits and pre-bid attendance. The code shows sustained activity across sealed-bid, RFP, and design-build notice types, with many procurements requiring FDOT or state prequalification, prevailing wage compliance, and performance bonds—signals typical of larger, publicly funded infrastructure work with strong bonding and insurance requirements.
