UNSPSC 15111503: Propylene

UNSPSC 15111503 Propylene is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, does not align with actual procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code are aviation fuel (Jet-A, 100LL Avgas), marine gasoline, bulk motor fuels (unleaded gasoline, diesel, biodiesel, renewable diesel), and diesel exhaust fluid — none of which are propylene. State and local procurement offices appear to be misclassifying fuel-supply contracts under this code. The work actually being solicited spans aviation fueling services, marine fuel delivery from waterfront facilities, bulk fleet fuel supply with OPIS-indexed pricing and emergency delivery capability, and distributed fueling infrastructure support. Issuing bodies include state colleges (Texas State Technical College), counties (Sarasota County, Solano County, Hunt County, Cobb County), and municipalities (City of Austin). School districts, county fleet operations divisions, and parks and recreation departments are the primary end-users driving demand.

Recent opportunities are concentrated in Texas, Florida, and California. Texas State Technical College (TSTC) Waco posted RFP #62 for Jet-A and 100LL Avgas with proposals due November 16, 2026, establishing a three-year IDIQ with two optional one-year extensions and estimated volumes of 3.375 million gallons of Jet-A and 485,000 gallons of 100LL over five years. The City of Austin posted IFB 7800MLJ1046 for bulk motor fuels and fuel-related products and services with bids due October 29, 2026, covering approximately 5 million gallons annually across 130 tank locations for unleaded gasoline, E10, E85, diesel, biodiesel, renewable diesel, and DEF delivery. Solano County (California) solicited IFB 405060226 for bulk fuel supply and monitoring of unleaded gasoline and renewable diesel with a July 10, 2026 bid deadline, anticipating 450,000 gallons annually across six locations. Sarasota County has rebid marine fuel twice (IFQ 262916KR in October 2026, IFQ 262897MF in August 2026), seeking waterfront ethanol-free marine gasoline supply from dockside facilities at approximately 8,000 gallons annually. Cobb County School District (Georgia) requested proposals for gasoline and diesel delivery to distributed fuel pumps across district sites (due September 30, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity and the mismatch with propylene suggests vendors should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuit.
