UNSPSC 25171509: Motorcycle windshield wiper

UNSPSC 25171509 Motorcycle windshield wiper is a Commodity code, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under it overwhelmingly procure complete police motorcycles rather than windshield wipers—a categorical mismatch that signals the code shows little activity aligned with its nominal scope. The actual work being solicited involves acquisition of law enforcement–ready motorcycles, typically new models equipped with police-specific features such as emergency lighting, radio mounts, and advanced safety systems including anti-lock braking and adaptive cruise control. Issuing bodies are primarily municipal police departments and state law enforcement agencies, joined by cooperative purchasing vehicles such as Sourcewell that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions. The City of Atlanta Police Department, the State of Nevada, the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, and the Illinois Department of Central Management Services represent the mix of repeat buyers; the City of St. Cloud, Florida and Williamson County Purchasing Department also posted, though one was a relocations notice unrelated to procurement.

Activity spans Texas, Illinois, Nevada, Florida, and Georgia, with a notable cooperative procurement managed by Sourcewell covering multiple Washington and Oregon counties plus national participation. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Comptroller's IFB 304T-26-071A1 for law enforcement motorcycles seeking 12 units with a May 19, 2026 deadline and contract term through April 2027 with renewal options; the Illinois Department of CMS IFB 27-416CMS-BOSS4-B-52578 for a joint purchase master contract for police pursuit motorcycles with bids due July 2, 2026 and a five-year initial term; the City of Atlanta's IFB/GS/DPW/2605-1260198 for fully equipped motorcycles plus repair, parts, and training services with a June 8, 2026 deadline; and the Sourcewell RFP 061626 for law enforcement equipment due June 16, 2026, structured as a cooperative purchasing vehicle for participating entities nationwide. Bidders should verify that each opportunity explicitly covers motorcycles or components rather than relying on the UNSPSC code assignment.
