UNSPSC 78102103: Pipeline inline inspection service

Service to inspect the condition of inline walls of the pipeline utilizing tools such as smart pigs

UNSPSC 78102103 Pipeline inline inspection service is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure color video inspection systems, camera equipment, and related pipeline assessment services for stormwater, sewer, and water distribution infrastructure. Recent solicitations show water and wastewater utilities purchasing end-to-end inspection platforms with software, lateral launch and push camera systems, training, parts support, and warranty coverage; municipalities are also procuring on-call inspection and camera services at airports and as components of broader utility infrastructure projects. The issuing bodies include city departments of watershed management and utilities, county water authorities, airport authorities, and regional water districts. City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management, City of Alpharetta, City of Lubbock, and City of Palm Bay appear in recent activity, alongside Connecticut Airport Authority and Eastern Municipal Water District in California.

Recent opportunities span Texas, Georgia, Florida, California, and Connecticut, with particular concentration in the Southeast. Representative solicitations include City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management's IFB GS/DWM/2604-1260190 for color video pipeline inspection systems and sewer cleaning equipment with multiple categories of equipment, software licensing, and five-year maintenance support, with bids due June 23, 2026; City of Alpharetta's RFP 26-115 for on-call pipe lining services (posted April 30, 2026, due May 28, 2026) which bundles inspection with trenchless rehabilitation across storm pipes 12 to 120 inches in diameter; and Connecticut Airport Authority's IFB No. 2026-020 for on-call pipeline and camera inspection services at Bradley International and general aviation airports, due March 10, 2026. The code also captures ancillary inspection work embedded in larger water system projects—Texas Water Development Board's mapping and line locates RFP for rural water utilities (June 30, 2026) and DeKalb County's field verification and reporting of service lines (May 18, 2026). Inspection services are typically procured with strict delivery and parts-availability requirements (24–72 hours in Atlanta's case), comprehensive training and documentation, and multi-year on-call or term structures.
