UNSPSC 25172205: Tailgates or liftgates

UNSPSC 25172205 Tailgates or liftgates (Commodity) covers power liftgates and utility bodies mounted on pickup trucks and heavy-duty vehicles, which state and local governments are procuring to support fleet operations and material handling. The recent opportunities show state and local buyers installing liftgates and utility bodies on existing or separately procured chassis for public works, maintenance, and service delivery. Issuing bodies include state agencies (State of Idaho), cities (City of Tucson), and counties (Williamson County) pursuing requirements contracts and competitive bids. Work scoped under the code ranges from small pickup-mounted power liftgates to full utility service bodies with specifications for dump configurations, compliance with federal and state DOT requirements, quality control, and factory-authorized service support within specified distances of the buyer's location.

Recent activity appears in Arizona and Idaho. The City of Tucson posted RFP No. 230164 on July 25, 2023 (due August 15, 2023) seeking qualified firms for an annual requirements contract for Heavy Duty Truck Utility Service Bodies with an estimated annual spend of $250,000 to $300,000 and a potential four-year extension; the procurement required a factory-authorized parts and service facility within 125 miles of Tucson and compliance with potential DBE participation guidelines. The State of Idaho posted a competitive solicitation (No. 1289) on April 23, 2026 (due May 22, 2026) for pick-up mounted power liftgates without further scope detail in the available materials. The Williamson County Purchasing Department notice (July 14, 2026) is administrative relocation only and does not constitute a procurement opportunity.
