UNSPSC 78141802: Vessel docking services

UNSPSC 78141802 Vessel docking services is a Commodity code covering the construction, installation, repair, and improvement of docking infrastructure, boat ramps, kayak launch systems, and associated marina facilities that state and local governments procure to provide public water access and recreational amenities. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing complete dock construction projects including floating launch systems, seawalls, boat ramps, parking lot improvements integrated with water access, drainage infrastructure, site preparation, and ADA-compliant ramps. Work includes coordination with federal environmental regulators (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers), state water-quality agencies, and compliance with wetlands and floodway protections. The scope encompasses the full range of labor, materials, equipment, bonds, and compliance documentation required to deliver operational water-access facilities on schedule and to liquidated-damage standards.

Recent activity centers in Georgia, where the City of Stonecrest issued an IFB (CITB-0011-26) in June 2026 for construction of a kayak launch dock at Everett Park with an August 4, 2026 response deadline and a mandatory pre-bid meeting and site visit on July 8, 2026, and Clay County Board of County Commissioners issued an RFB (Solicitation 2526089) in June 2026 for repairs and redevelopment of Knights Marina and Lake Shore Boat Ramp with a July 6, 2026 deadline and addendum revision posted May 28, 2026. Both solicitations require performance and payment bonds and demand bidders provide prior experience with comparable marina, boat-ramp, and dock-installation work. A third June 2026 DeKalb County ITB for tennis center reconstruction included IT infrastructure scope unrelated to the vessel docking code's actual procurement focus. Issuing bodies include municipal parks departments and county boards of commissioners managing public water-recreation assets. Response dates and pre-bid activity favor early engagement for site familiarization and scope clarification.
