UNSPSC 72152708: Parking lot construction service

The creation and maintenance of concrete parking lot structures owned by others

UNSPSC 72152708 Parking lot construction service is a Commodity code covering the design and full construction of new parking facilities and the comprehensive rehabilitation of existing lots, including site preparation, paving, drainage, lighting, and related improvements that state and local governments solicit frequently across multiple jurisdictions and issuing bodies. Recent opportunities show municipalities, counties, school districts, transit authorities, and special-purpose districts purchasing under this code; state entities like the Connecticut Department of Administrative Services and Georgia World Congress Center Authority also issue solicitations. Work ranges from small municipal lots ($1.27 million for Holden Avenue sidewalk construction in Orange County, Florida) to large regional projects ($5.657 million for the Horizon West Trail with parking improvements in Orange County, Florida). Typical scopes include site demolition and grading, concrete and asphalt paving with striping, storm drainage and detention systems, curbs and gutters, ADA ramps, lighting, landscaping, and erosion control; some opportunities bundle parking with trails, splash pads, recreational facilities, or utility infrastructure upgrades. Bidders encounter mandatory prevailing wage requirements on federally funded work, Davis-Bacon Act compliance, Buy America provisions, and FDOT or state DOT material standards; state-level set-asides for small business enterprises and disadvantaged businesses appear in a minority of opportunities but drive participation goals when present.

The code sees active procurement across the Southeast (Georgia, Florida, Connecticut, South Carolina), Texas, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Mississippi. Representative recent opportunities include Okaloosa County, Florida's John Beasley and Ross Marler Park parking expansion (ITB, August 12, 2026 response date, $1.345 million), the City of Demorest, Georgia's City Hall parking lot (IFB, August 21, 2026, local preference for Habersham County bidders within 5 percent), and the Town of Manchester, Connecticut's Salters Pool parking lot reconstruction (IFB via eProcurement portal, July 23, 2026, federally funded through CDBG with Davis-Bacon and DBE requirements). Collin County Community College District in Texas solicited competitive sealed proposals for the Wylie CTE Center parking lot paving (CSP, November 11, 2025 response date, with four alternates for northern lot infrastructure). Pierce County, Georgia has issued multiple bids for recreation area parking improvements funded through Land and Water Conservation Fund grants, triggering Build America, Buy America Act compliance. Contracting officers typically require bid bonds at 5 to 10 percent, performance and payment bonds at 100 percent of contract value, comprehensive general liability insurance at $1 million minimum, and workers' compensation coverage; many jurisdictions mandate E-Verify enrollment and local preference or MBE/WBE participation documentation. Competition intensity and response timelines vary; most opportunities close within 30 to 60 days from posting, with pre-bid meetings or site visits commonly mandatory for attendance qualification.
