UNSPSC 25121602: Tanker rail cars

UNSPSC 25121602 Tanker rail cars is a Commodity code with limited recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal scope. The two recent opportunities posted under this code show significant mission mismatch: one is a cooperative law enforcement equipment RFP from Sourcewell on behalf of multiple Washington counties and other jurisdictions nationwide, and the other is a South Florida Regional Transportation Authority (SFRTA) RFI for bi-level commuter rail coach and cab cars plus a Marion County, Florida road resurfacing project. Neither procurement involves tanker rail cars. The law enforcement equipment opportunity does not specify product categories, and the rail car RFI targets passenger coach and cab cars for commuter service replacement, not tanker equipment. The mismatch suggests the code may be incorrectly tagged by the issuing bodies or that state and local procurement under this code is currently inactive.

Geographic activity is concentrated in Florida and Washington based on recent postings, though Sourcewell's cooperative structure spans multiple jurisdictions and states nationwide. The SFRTA RFI for fifty-one bi-level commuter rail vehicles (six to nine cab cars and twelve to twenty-four coach cars) with delivery over forty-eight to sixty months and compliance with 49 CFR Part 238, FTA, ADA, and Buy America requirements closed March 16, 2026. Sourcewell's Law Enforcement Equipment RFP #061626, issued on behalf of Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, Yakima County, and participating entities across the United States and Canada, closed June 16, 2026, with submission through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal. No recent opportunities for tanker rail car procurement were identified under this code.
