UNSPSC 25101944: Runway sweeper, towed

A tow-behind airport sweeper is used for effective airfield snow removal and maintenance operations. The combined clearing action of the high-speed rotating brush and the powerful air blast remove snow, slush, debris, and dust from runways.

UNSPSC 25101944 Runway sweeper, towed is a Commodity code covering mechanical street and airfield sweeping equipment used by state and local governments to maintain roadways, parking areas, and airport surfaces. State and local procurement activity under this code reflects demand for both equipment acquisition and service delivery: governments solicit fleet leases to operate sweeping programs in-house, bid competitive contracts for sweeping services performed by vendors, and establish cooperative purchasing agreements that make sweeping equipment available to multiple member entities. The issuing bodies span city public works departments, county transportation and public works offices, airport authorities, and service cooperatives representing networks of municipalities. Recent activity shows Dallas and Louisville Metro procuring sweeping services through RFPs and rebids, Pinellas County leasing mechanical sweepers to manage operations internally, and Orange County's John Wayne Airport competitively bidding airside surface maintenance (which includes sweeping operations). Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, is aggregating runway equipment and specialized airfield systems on behalf of member public entities, indicating demand from smaller jurisdictions that leverage cooperative contracts to access equipment and vendors.

Geographic spread includes activity in Texas (Dallas, Williamson County), Florida (Pinellas County), California (Orange County), Kentucky (Louisville Metro), and Minnesota (Sourcewell). Representative opportunities include the City of Dallas solicitation BG2600030710 for an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity street sweeping services agreement with a three-year base term and two optional one-year renewals, due September 18, 2026; Pinellas County Public Works IFB 260581ITB seeking a lease of Regen X sweeper equipment and mechanical support, posted August 6, 2026 and due the same day as a non-competitive procurement; the County of Orange, John Wayne Airport IFB 2803068502-CP for airside surface maintenance including sweeping, pressure washing, friction testing, and airfield markings with a three-year initial term commencing October 1, 2026, due August 6, 2026 with a 5% cost preference for certified Orange County Local Small Business or Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise bidders; and Louisville Metro Government's RFP260258 rebid for street sweeping services across 530.40 centerline miles of suburban roadways and 90 centerline miles of bike lanes, due June 12, 2026, with 15% MBE, 5% FBE, and 0.5% HBE subcontracting goals and a 5% price reduction preference for local vendors.
