UNSPSC 78141800: Terminal services

UNSPSC 78141800 Terminal services is a Class code that spans waterfront infrastructure and recreational access improvements, but the recent state and local opportunities solicited under it show a mismatch with the nominal code scope. The City of Stonecrest and Clay County are both procuring construction and redevelopment of boat ramps, kayak launch docks, and marinas—waterside terminal facilities for recreational watercraft—alongside parking, drainage, docking, and ancillary site work. These are fixed-price construction projects issued as IFBs and RFBs, soliciting qualified and licensed general contractors or marine-construction specialists. A third recent opportunity from DeKalb County listed under this code—reconstruction of a tennis center with IT and low-voltage infrastructure—appears unrelated to terminal services and likely reflects a tagging error in the source system. State and local buyers posting under this code are primarily counties and municipalities with waterfront parks or recreation areas, not specialized port or shipping operators.

The code shows recent activity in Georgia, with the City of Stonecrest (Everett Park Kayak Launch, ITB due August 4, 2026) and Clay County (Knights Marina and Lakeshore Boat Ramp Repair, RFB due July 6, 2026) both issuing waterside construction work in June 2026. The Stonecrest scope includes a floating kayak launch system, permeable parking lot, stormwater infrastructure, and regulatory coordination with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and state agencies, with substantial completion required in 60 calendar days and final completion in 180 calendar days. Clay County's opportunity encompasses marina redevelopment and boat-ramp improvements with performance and payment bonds required; Addendum #2 was posted May 28, 2026. Both solicitations require bid bonds and contractor references demonstrating prior waterside or recreational-facility experience. Geographic concentration appears light—only Georgia municipalities visible in the recent block—and issuing bodies consist of local governments with parks or recreation departments managing public waterfront access.
