UNSPSC 83101807: Municipal electric power distribution

UNSPSC 83101807 Municipal electric power distribution is a Commodity code. State and local governments use this code to procure the design, installation, and rehabilitation of electric utility infrastructure serving municipal water systems, wastewater treatment plants, and related public facilities. Recent solicitations show demand for primary power distribution system upgrades, electrical improvements to water and wastewater treatment plants, streetlight repair and maintenance, and specialized electrical work in utility facilities, alongside non-electrical water and wastewater construction projects that happen to be tagged with this code.

Issuing bodies posting under this code span state departments, county utilities departments, municipal public works and water authorities, and special-purpose districts across the Southeast and Midwest. The State of Florida Department of Military Affairs, Collier County, Marion County, Orange County, and multiple Florida and Georgia water utilities appear as repeat solicitors. Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Kansas, North Carolina, and Texas, with scattered recent opportunities in Utah, Arizona, and Maryland. Representative recent opportunities include the State of Florida Department of Military Affairs soliciting sealed bids for the Camp Blanding Joint Training Center Primary Power Distribution Upgrade (estimated $1.8 million, ITB due August 26, 2026), Collier County requesting proposals for South County Water Reclamation Facility Treatment Technology and Flow Management Improvements design services (RPS due March 9, 2026), Marion County soliciting bids for potable water well construction at two treatment plants (ITB due May 21, 2026), and Orange County issuing a sealed-bid IFB for the Horizon West Trail Phase 1A project including 400 linear feet of water main replacement alongside pedestrian infrastructure ($5.66 million estimated, IFB due August 13, 2026). A significant portion of recent opportunities are water or wastewater infrastructure projects—filtration improvements, sewer rehabilitation, meter replacement, well drilling—that carry this electrical code designation but involve minimal or ancillary electrical work, suggesting possible miscoding in the posting systems.
