UNSPSC 25101919 Road sweeper is a Commodity code encompassing the procurement of mechanical street sweeping equipment and replacement parts that state and local governments buy to maintain roadways, parking areas, and public spaces. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing self-propelled mechanical street sweepers with specifications such as 10-foot sweep widths, sealed cabs, 74-horsepower Tier 4F engines, and integrated water and vacuum systems; compact battery-electric sweepers with 2.5 cubic yard capacity; mini-sweepers with vacuum systems for smaller spaces; and replacement brooms, brushes, and component parts including main brooms, gutter brooms, and rotary broom wafer refills. Issuing bodies span state departments of transportation, county public works, city street maintenance and facilities management, transit authorities, community colleges, and airport commissions. The Illinois Department of Central Management Services (CMS) and Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) are active repeat buyers, as are California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), and city-level public works departments in Pittsburgh, Peoria, Tucson, and Tarpon Springs.

Recent activity concentrates in Illinois, California, Missouri, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative solicitations include Illinois CMS's joint purchase master contract for asphalt equipment including self-propelled brooms with 7.5-foot sweep width and sealed cabs (IFB 27-416-CMS-BOSS4-B-52918, bids due August 12, 2026); the City of Pittsburgh Department of Public Works' request for sweeper maintenance and repair services from authorized dealers for Elgin, Applied Sweeper, FMC, and Tennant brands (IFB #2026-IFB-043, bids due July 2, 2026); the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority's procurement of five mechanical street sweepers with Cummins diesel engines and 30,000 lb. GVWR (IFB 25-0074R, bids due July 10, 2026); and California Department of Transportation's invitation for battery-electric compact sweepers with 2.5 cubic yard capacity and 300-day delivery timeframe (IFB 32-12-6680, bids due June 9, 2026). The code also captures repair parts and supply contracts, such as Peoria, Arizona's IFB for replacement main and gutter brooms estimated at $100,000 annually (IFB P260034, bids due February 12, 2026) and MoDOT's procurement of rotary broom wafer refills (IFB 300000216962366, bids due February 4, 2026). Set-aside participation goals vary widely—Illinois CMS applied a 4 percent Business Enterprise Program goal; Pittsburgh imposed DBE participation targets of 18 percent, 7 percent Women-Owned, 5 percent Veteran-Owned, and 3 percent LGBTQIA+-Owned; and California offers a 5 percent small business preference. Equipment specifications reflect growing interest in emissions-compliant engines, sealed cabs for operator comfort, and alternative-fuel options including battery-electric drives.
