UNSPSC 25101714: Armored recovery vehicle

Off-road vehicle with blast protected crew cabin for the purpose of recovering damaged or broken down heavy off-road mine protected vehicles.

UNSPSC 25101714 Armored recovery vehicle (Commodity) covers specialized emergency and tactical vehicles that state and local governments procure for fire, rescue, and law enforcement operations. Recent state and local solicitations show this code captures custom-built fire rescue apparatus, ambulances, ARFF (Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting) vehicles, police tactical armored vehicles, brush trucks, and specialized response equipment — substantially broader than the code name alone suggests. The issuing bodies span county boards of commissioners, municipal fire departments, regional airports, police divisions, and state purchasing cooperatives. Georgia leads recent activity with multiple solicitations from county emergency services and the state Department of Administrative Services; Florida and South Carolina show secondary activity through county emergency services and detention facilities.

Representative recent opportunities demonstrate the scope and buyer profile. Washington County Board of Commissioners in Georgia issued an IFB for a 2027 Ford 4x4 F550 2-door mini rescue vehicle for the Sandersville Fire Department (response due November 23, 2026), specifying NFPA 1901 compliance, seven compartments, aluminum body construction, and comprehensive warranty and insurance requirements ($2 million commercial general liability minimum). Greenville County, South Carolina solicited an RFP for a customized 2024 Ram 3500 Crew Cab squad truck with Cummins diesel engine and specialized emergency equipment (proposals due July 25, 2025), evaluated on ten equally weighted criteria including vendor experience and delivery commitment. Georgia's Department of Administrative Services State Purchasing Division issued two statewide RFPs (SWCERFP000282027 and SWCERFP000232027) to establish multi-supplier contracts for police vehicles and special operations vehicles (responses due November 7 and October 8, 2026 respectively), open to all qualified suppliers on a cooperative basis. Broward County solicited a structural fire engine for aviation and county agency use (TRN2132656B1, bids due September 14, 2026) with 510 horsepower minimum, NFPA certification, and 750-day delivery timeline. The code also captures ambulance procurement (Bryan County Georgia, Tift County Georgia, DeSoto County Mississippi, and Monroe County Georgia all active in August–September 2026), fire apparatus maintenance and repair services (City of Detroit, August 2026), and tactical vehicle retrofits for ARFF and police operations. Sole-source awards and existing contracts appear occasionally — the City of Valdosta awarded a BearCat G3 armored vehicle to Lenco and posted a notice of intent for single-source services. Activity spans the Southeast (Georgia, South Carolina, Florida, Mississippi), the Midwest (Michigan), and scattered Western jurisdictions, with fire and rescue agencies the dominant buyer class.
