UNSPSC 95121615: Quay or wharf

A structure built parallel to the bank of a waterway for use as a landing place.

UNSPSC 95121615 Quay or wharf, a Commodity code, encompasses the design, construction, repair, and rehabilitation of waterfront dock, pier, and marine infrastructure facilities that state and local governments procure to support public access, recreation, and coastal resilience. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying wharf and dock construction, floating-dock installation, pier rehabilitation following storm damage, seawall stabilization, boardwalk repair, and derelict-vessel removal and marine debris clearance—work spanning from fixed fishing piers and public boat launches to ferry terminals, marina facilities, and environmental habitat-restoration structures anchored in marine environments.

Issuing bodies span coastal counties, cities, school districts, transit authorities, and state environmental or marine agencies across the Southeast, Texas, California, and the Pacific Northwest. The City of Long Beach, Florida municipalities (Fort Myers, Daytona Beach, Cocoa, St. Pete Beach, Sarasota), Broward County, Pinellas County, Escambia County, and Chatham County, Georgia appear repeatedly in recent activity, signaling sustained procurement volume in coastal Florida and Georgia; Texas state agencies (General Land Office, Parks and Wildlife Department) and state departments in Mississippi and Oregon also post regularly. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Long Beach's Marine Stadium electrical infrastructure and Naples seawall tieback installations (RFQ and IFB, due November 2026); the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources' concrete material deployment by barge to artificial reef sites (IFB, due November 2026); Broward County's ADA dock at Deerfield Island (fixed-price construction, July 2026); Chatham Area Transit Authority's ferry dock and shelter at Plant Riverside in Savannah (design-build, due November 2026); and Pinellas County's marine construction work-order contract for boat ramps, piers, and docks across county sites (work-order vehicle, September 2026). Derelict vessel and marine debris removal is a steady substream, with Escambia County Marine Resources Division posting multiple price quotes for individual vessel removal (funded through Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission grants) and the City of Fort Myers and other coastal counties soliciting continuing-contract services for emergency-response derelict-vessel removal. Geographic concentration is heaviest in coastal Florida (Atlantic and Gulf coasts), followed by Texas Gulf Coast, Georgia coastal counties, California waterfront cities, and sporadic activity in Mississippi, Oregon, and Connecticut. The code shows active recent procurement across municipal, county, state-agency, school-district, and transit-authority buyers with no single dominant issuer—activity is dispersed but consistent.
