UNSPSC 95121813: Jetties

A jetty is a structure that projects from land out into water. A jetty may serve as a breakwater, as a walkway, or both; or, in pairs, as a means of constricting a channel. A variety of engineering structures connected with river, harbor, and coastal works designed to influence the current or tide or to protect a harbor or beach from waves (breakwater).

UNSPSC 95121813 Jetties (Commodity) covers marine infrastructure repair, redevelopment, and improvement work at public waterfront facilities including boat ramps, marinas, docks, and seawalls. State and local procurement activity under this code reflects county and municipal demand for licensed contractor services to execute waterfront construction work to specification, with work typically governed by plans, engineering drawings, environmental compliance requirements, and performance bonding. The issuing bodies soliciting under the code are primarily county governments and municipalities with waterfront assets; repeat buyers include Beaufort County, South Carolina, and Clay County, Florida. Clay County's June 2026 RFB for Knight's Marina & Lake Shore Boat Ramp Repair, Redevelopment and Improvements exemplifies the scope—the County sought qualified licensed contractors to deliver labor, materials, equipment, and services for marina and boat-ramp construction work per detailed plans and specifications, with responses due July 6, 2026, and performance and payment bonds required.

Recent activity clusters in the Southeast, particularly South Carolina and Florida. Beaufort County has posted multiple related solicitations for boat landing and pier improvements, including the Alljoy Boat Landing/Parking Design RFQ (due May 21, 2025) which specified survey, geotechnical investigation, engineering design, construction management, permitting, and wetland services for upland parking, restroom facilities, and a new fishing pier. Clay County, Florida, and municipalities in Georgia have also issued RFQs or RFBs touching related waterfront infrastructure work. The code shows modest but steady activity among smaller jurisdictions managing public waterfront facilities; responses are typically due within three to four weeks of posting, and pre-bid conferences are contemplated when project complexity warrants. Bidders should expect detailed technical specifications, environmental and regulatory compliance requirements, and standard bonding and insurance provisions.
