UNSPSC 73151700: Material treatment

UNSPSC 73151700 Material treatment is a Class code under which state and local governments solicit maintenance, repair, restoration, and protective treatment services on building systems and structures—most commonly roofing membranes, waterproofing assemblies, fire suppression systems, and mechanical equipment at facilities ranging from schools and airports to water utilities and municipal recreation centers. Recent opportunities show work spanning roof replacement and restoration (modified bitumen and PVC membrane systems with 20-year warranties), fire suppression system maintenance and emergency response, waterproofing and exterior weatherization (sealant replacement at roof penetrations and building envelope), traveling screen and bar screen servicing at water treatment plants, and masonry repair and tuck-pointing. Issuing bodies include county governments (Macon-Bibb County in Georgia, Glynn County in Georgia, DeKalb County School District), cities (Atlanta, Tallahassee, Madison, Santa Cruz, Meriden), community colleges (San Jacinto Community College District, Austin Community College), water authorities (Macon Water Authority, City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management), and independent school districts (Klein ISD in Texas). Work solicited through RFPs, RFQs, RFBs, and ITBs typically requires three to five years of specialized experience, manufacturer certifications (Firestone, Mueller Water Products, GARLAND systems), Georgia or state-specific licensing, and insurance with $1 million to $2 million general liability coverage.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (Macon-Bibb County, Glynn County, DeKalb County, Atlanta, Tallahassee), Texas (Houston area, Austin), Connecticut (Meriden), Wisconsin (Madison), California (Santa Cruz), and Florida (DeBary, Tybee Island). Representative recent opportunities include Macon-Bibb County's RFP 27-002-LH for fire suppression maintenance and services at Middle Georgia Regional Airport (due August 13, 2026), the San Jacinto Community College District's roof coating and envelope repair on Building S15 (CSP with May 6, 2026 deadline and $1.9 million estimated value), the City of Madison's Normal Hall roof replacement (RFB due August 6, 2026 with local vendor preference), the DeKalb County School District's district-wide roofing repairs and emergency services across 139 schools (ITB 26-707 due May 7, 2026), and the Macon Water Authority's Rocky Creek WRF maintenance building roof replacement (sealed bid due May 12, 2026). Harris County Department of Education and Choice Partners jointly solicited roofing, waterproofing, and masonry services under a cooperative purchasing vehicle with a $200 million maximum annual aggregate across the program.
