UNSPSC 73121807: Asbestos products manufacturing services

UNSPSC 73121807 Asbestos products manufacturing services is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure asbestos abatement and removal services — the remediation and safe disposal of asbestos-containing materials from buildings. The work encompasses removal of asbestos ceiling tile, vinyl flooring and mastic, pipe insulation, and other friable or non-friable asbestos-bearing products, coupled with full regulatory compliance (EPA, OSHA, state environmental codes), waste certification, and disposal at licensed in-state facilities. Contractors must provide labor, equipment, supervision, air monitoring, site security, and workers' compensation at statutory limits plus commercial general liability of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence. School districts are a primary issuing body under this code; independent school districts appear to solicit abatement services when building systems reach end-of-life or when facility renovation or demolition triggers remediation requirements.

Provo City School District (Utah) posted an RFP on February 2, 2026 (PCSD02132026WKT) for asbestos abatement at Dixon Middle School, closing February 13, 2026, with a mandatory bid walk on February 5, 2026. The scope included removal of approximately 1,500 square feet of asbestos-containing ceiling tile, 12,149 square feet of vinyl flooring and mastic, and eight sink undercoats; the district reserved the right to award to the lowest-cost responsive and responsible offeror with the highest technical score, with anticipated project start April 1, 2026. The recent-opportunities block contains no other examples, limiting visibility into geographic concentration or the frequency of solicitation across multiple states or issuing bodies under this code.
