UNSPSC 25101505: Minivans or vans

UNSPSC 25101505 Minivans or vans, a Commodity code, covers the acquisition of light commercial and specialty passenger vans procured by state and local governments for operations ranging from animal control and emergency response to healthcare delivery and facilities maintenance. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring purpose-built or upfitted vans—cargo vans with specialized interiors for animal transport, high-roof extended-length vans configured as mobile crisis response or mobile command centers, crew-cab cargo vans for catering and personnel transport, and wheelchair-accessible minivans for human services. The issuing bodies span county governments, public universities, state health and human services departments, county fire and emergency services, and municipal water districts. Riverside County, Hillsborough County (Florida), and Sacramento County appear as repeat buyers, each soliciting multiple van or light-duty vehicle procurements over the recent period. Solicitation notice types include RFB (Request for Bid), RFP (Request for Proposal), RFQ (Request for Quotation), and ITB (Invitation to Bid).

Recent activity concentrates in California and Florida, with additional solicitations in Texas, Rhode Island, and New York. Representative opportunities include Hillsborough County's ITB for three medium-roof cargo vans equipped with animal control cage assemblies (estimated value $270,000, bids due August 18, 2026); Sacramento County's RFB to upfit five county-owned Utilimaster step vans with specialized configurations for transportation and water resources operations, featuring a 2% micro-business preference and 5% local-business preference (questions due October 22, 2026; bids due November 4, 2026); and the University of Rhode Island's RFQ for one one-ton cargo van with crew cab seating and roll-up rear door for dining services operations (quotations due August 19, 2026).
