UNSPSC 81101606: Marine engineering

Encompasses shipbuilding engineering functions including creative project floating ship, applied research, technical development in the fields of design and construction and management of the production centers of buoyancy material (yards). As well as the maintenance and repair of these. The marine engineer is concerned with the design, planning, design and construction of ships, boats and floating structures, including oil platforms and offshore wind farms

UNSPSC 81101606 Marine engineering is a Commodity code that captures a narrow slice of state and local procurement—specifically, independent cost estimating and design services for water infrastructure projects rather than hands-on marine construction or vessel operations. Recent solicitations under this code show state and local governments buying engineering design, preconstruction consulting, and construction administration for water treatment plants, wastewater systems, stormwater management, and multi-use trail and pedestrian bridge projects. A handful of opportunities involve SCADA system upgrades at water facilities and remedial investigation services for contaminated sites. The mix of issuing bodies reflects the diversity of state and local infrastructure: state departments of transportation (Georgia DOT), county governments (Okaloosa County, Chatham County, Monroe County), cities (Fort Myers, Daytona Beach, Phoenix, Pompano Beach, Waco, Winter Park, Kissimmee), university systems (Texas State University, University of Texas at El Paso), transit authorities (South Florida Regional Transportation Authority), and special-purpose districts (West Basin Municipal Water District, Orlando Utilities Commission). Georgia jurisdictions—particularly the Georgia Department of Transportation and cities in metro Atlanta—appear most frequently in the recent activity, followed by Florida municipalities and counties.

Representative recent opportunities span multiple service types. The Georgia Department of Transportation issued RFQ 484-111626 on October 16, 2026, seeking Independent Cost Estimator services for alternative delivery and P3 projects (due November 16, 2026). Cobb County Department of Transportation posted RFQ B2464 for engineering design services on the Factory Shoals Pedestrian Bridge Phase 1 (due November 12, 2026), requiring GDOT prequalification in roadway, bicycle-pedestrian, and bridge design area classes. The City of West Linn, Oregon, released Mini-RFP K23242 on October 13, 2026, for architectural and engineering full-service proposals for pedestrian and bicycle upgrades along Willamette Falls Drive (due October 27, 2026). Monroe County, Florida, solicited Construction Engineering and Inspection services for the Key Deer Boulevard Roadway Rehabilitation Project addressing sea level rise (due November 24, 2026), requiring FDOT Work Group 10.1 prequalification. The geographic spread extends across Georgia, Florida, Oregon, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and New Jersey, with the highest concentration of recent activity in Georgia and Florida. The code's recent activity reflects state and local focus on water infrastructure resilience, multimodal facility design, and federal compliance for water and transportation projects.
