UNSPSC 78141704: Dead man anchor service

Mooring service using strong buried anchors for holding the vessel in place

UNSPSC 78141704 Dead man anchor service is a Commodity code that state and local procurement offices use to tag waterfront and marine construction work involving anchoring systems for docks, boat ramps, kayak launches, and shoreline stabilization. The recent opportunities under this code show that state and local governments are buying full-scope marina, boat ramp, and waterfront recreational-access construction — including floating launch systems, dock and seawall work, dredging-adjacent services, and the structural anchoring required to hold these assets in place against water movement and weather. Issuing bodies include city recreation departments (City of Stonecrest), county boards of commissioners (Clay County Board of County Commissioners), and county parks and recreation agencies (DeKalb County). These solicitations are IFBs and RFBs, indicating price-driven, design-complete contracting where the anchor systems and marine infrastructure scope is already specified in detail.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia and Florida. The City of Stonecrest posted CITB-0011-26 on June 22, 2026, with bids due August 4, 2026 at 3:00 p.m., for a kayak launch dock installation and parking lot improvements at Everett Park; the mandatory pre-bid meeting and site visit are July 8, 2026 at 10:30 a.m., and questions close July 17, 2026. Clay County Board of County Commissioners posted RFB 2526089 on June 22, 2026, with bids due July 6, 2026, for repairs and redevelopment at Knights Marina Boat Ramp and Lake Shore Boat Ramp. A third recent posting, DeKalb County's 2026-076-ITB (June 9, 2026, bids due July 13, 2026), is for IT and low-voltage infrastructure at a tennis center and does not reflect marine anchoring work, suggesting occasional code-tagging misalignment in the source data. Bidders must hold Georgia contractor licenses, provide references specific to marina and waterfront work, and carry performance and payment bonds. Liquidated-damages clauses and 60–180-day completion windows are typical.
