UNSPSC 25172105: Collision avoidance systems

UNSPSC 25172105 Collision avoidance systems is a Commodity code with little direct recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—vehicle safety systems that detect and prevent collisions—does not align clearly with the recent opportunities posted under this designation. A Jacksonville Transportation Authority RFP (P26014, posted October 8, 2026, due March 30, 2026) seeks advanced autonomous vehicle operations and safety validation technology, which touches on collision avoidance as a component of broader autonomous systems but frames the need as research and development integration rather than purchase of collision avoidance equipment alone. Several other opportunities tagged under adjacent codes address law enforcement vehicle upfit equipment, fleet collision repair services, and specialized vehicle modifications—none of which constitute collision avoidance systems procurement in the traditional sense. The mismatch between the code's definition and actual current buying activity suggests this Commodity code sees limited dedicated state and local solicitation volume at present.

Geographic spread across recent opportunities is confined to Florida (Jacksonville Transportation Authority), Washington and Oregon (Washington State Department of Enterprise Services cooperative purchasing), and Georgia (City of South Fulton). No repeat buyers appear under this specific code designation. The Jacksonville RFP represents the closest alignment to collision avoidance scope, structured as a firm fixed price contract with economic adjustment, weighted toward innovation (30 points), qualified staff (30 points), and methodology (30 points), with a one-year term and four optional one-year renewals; the procurement requires 30 percent small business participation and DBE/SBE certification under the Florida Uniform Certification Program. Given the sparse alignment between recent state and local opportunities and the code's stated commodity definition, firms pursuing collision avoidance systems should monitor broader autonomous vehicle and smart transportation infrastructure initiatives rather than expect dedicated RFPs specifically for this Commodity code.
