UNSPSC 25172408: Fuel or oil caps

UNSPSC 25172408 Fuel or oil caps, a Commodity code, covers replacement above-ground fuel storage tanks, tank components, and related fuel dispensing and management infrastructure procured by state and local governments for fleet and facilities operations. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring complete tank replacement systems—including the tanks themselves, dispensers, piping, sensors, and fuel-management integration—rather than caps as discrete consumable items; the code appears to capture the broader fuel-tank assembly activity rather than the narrow product category its name suggests. Issuing bodies include county public works departments (Boulder County, Bryan County), county school districts (Gwinnett County Public Schools), state departments (California Department of General Services), and transit authorities (Orange County Transportation Authority). The work spans design-build turnkey projects, competitive sealed bids for tank procurement and installation, and IFBs for inspection and repair services across multi-county regions.

Activity concentrates in California and Georgia, with secondary presence in Colorado and across the upper South. Representative recent opportunities include Boulder County Building Services (Colorado) issuing an IFB for replacement of a 10,000-gallon above-ground tank at 286 Ridge Road, Nederland, with bids due October 27, 2026; Gwinnett County Public Schools (Georgia) soliciting bulk motor oil and transmission fluid with digital bids due September 30, 2026; Bryan County (Georgia) requesting design-build proposals for a 12,000-gallon split fuel island with bids due October 1, 2026 and a pre-bid meeting on September 21, 2026; and the California Department of General Services issuing IFB 06A3313 for fuel tank inspection and repair services across five Central Valley counties with proposals due July 23, 2026. The Orange County Transportation Authority solicited CNG fuel tank replacement for forty-eight transit buses at $2,721,744.00 estimated value through April 20, 2026 (now closed). Contracts typically require performance bonds, commercial general liability insurance of $1 million per occurrence, and compliance with state environmental and hazardous-substance handling regulations.
