UNSPSC 83101506: Water treatment services

UNSPSC 83101506 Water treatment services, a Commodity code, encompasses the design, construction, maintenance, testing, and operational services that state and local governments procure to treat drinking water, wastewater, and reclaimed water at municipal and regional facilities. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying comprehensive infrastructure work — new treatment systems with oxidation, filtration, and membrane technologies; mechanical integrity testing of deep injection wells; aeration basin refurbishment; SCADA upgrades and control systems; bulk treatment chemicals; and ongoing laboratory testing and monitoring services to meet EPA, state environmental protection division, and Safe Drinking Water Act compliance mandates.

The issuing bodies span state agencies (California Department of Fish and Wildlife, California Department of Water Resources, Florida Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Corrections, Texas Division of Emergency Management), regional water authorities (Onslow Water & Sewer Authority in North Carolina, Hillsborough County Capital Projects Management in Florida, Clackamas County Water Environment Services in Oregon), city water departments (Sacramento County Department of Regional Parks, Salt Lake City Department of Public Utilities, City of Orlando, City of Phoenix Water Services, City of Santa Cruz Water Department), and special-purpose districts (Central Florida Tourism Oversight District). Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, California, North Carolina, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois, with dispersed recent activity across Georgia, Connecticut, Utah, Indiana, and other states. Representative opportunities include Hillsborough County's $4,728,600 IFB for a 1500 kW diesel generator and fuel tank at the Valrico Reclaimed Water Facility with a 5% SBE goal and November 18, 2026 response date; Clackamas County's $3.7 million bid for Tri-City Water Resource Recovery Facility aeration basin improvements with prevailing wage and M/W/ESB good faith effort requirements, due November 10, 2026; Orange County Florida's $14,314,240.85 SCADA and PLC upgrade at the East Water Reclamation Facility with electronic submission by August 31, 2026; and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife's $168,900 domestic water treatment plant operations contract at Hot Creek Hatchery with mandatory 3% DVBE participation and a July 7, 2026 bid due date. The code also captures routine maintenance and testing services — weekly water quality monitoring, monthly chemical analysis, laboratory testing for coliform and lead compliance, and operator-in-charge certifications for correctional facilities and public utilities — with contract values typically in the $20,000 to $100,000 range annually and terms spanning one to five years with renewal options.
