UNSPSC 25172609: Mud flap

Widely used commodity in most vehicles to protect against mud buildup.

UNSPSC 25172609 Mud flap, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. The recent opportunities indexed under this code do not reflect mud flap procurement; instead, they span fleet parts aggregation, vehicle maintenance, upfitting, emissions components, batteries, alternators, starters, locksmith services, tire repair, and heavy-duty trailers. Only one record—the Williamson County Purchasing Department relocation notice—carries no procurement substance whatsoever. The code appears to capture a narrow product category (protective mud flaps for vehicles) that state and local jurisdictions procure as part of broader fleet parts, maintenance, or upfitting contracts rather than as standalone commodity solicitations.

The mixed issuing-body pattern across the opportunit documentation includes school districts (Seminole County Public Schools, Sarasota County Schools, Rockwood School District, Pinellas County School District, Parkway School District), counties (San Bernardino County, Brevard County, Jackson County, Collier County, Columbia County), cities (Philadelphia, Dallas, Eugene, Gainesville, Atlanta, Orlando, Palm Beach), a regional transit authority (City of Gainesville Regional Transit System), a state agency (Texas Department of Transportation), and a university system (Texas A&M). No issuing body appears more than twice in the recent record, and no opportunities specifically reference mud flap procurement. Geographic spread spans Texas, Florida, Oregon, Missouri, California, Georgia, Kentucky, Illinois, Colorado, and Washington, but the geographic concentration reflects the broader fleet-parts market rather than mud flap demand. Because the code shows no recent state and local solicitations specifically for mud flaps, direct market signals for this Commodity are absent. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor cooperative purchasing vehicles serving fleet maintenance (such as Sourcewell and the Texas SmartBuy platform) and track bundled vehicle parts or upfitting RFPs where protective components may be included as line items within larger vehicle equipment or parts agreements.
