UNSPSC 25172611: Vehicle bumper guard

A device installed in front of the front bumper of a car. It is also referred to as the nudge bar.

UNSPSC 25172611 Vehicle bumper guard is a Commodity code that encompasses specialized vehicle attachments and guards, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little direct alignment with the nominal bumper-guard scope. Instead, the code has captured a diverse set of vehicle-centric solicitations including mobile education laboratories, animal control vans with integrated containment systems, vehicle arresting devices, and debris removal front-bumper systems. State and local issuing bodies using this code include independent school districts (Temple ISD in Texas), county governments (Hillsborough County in Florida), municipal police departments (Tempe Police Department in Arizona), and state transportation departments (Florida Department of Transportation). The work being solicited ranges from custom vehicle fabrication and outfitting to specialized equipment procurement and fleet collision repair services, indicating that the code may be capturing vehicle-mounted equipment and modifications more broadly than its name suggests.

Recent opportunities span Texas, Florida, Arizona, and Georgia. Temple Independent School District issued RFP-008-27 in October 2026 (due November 2, 2026) for design, fabrication, and delivery of one custom Mobile STEM Lab vehicle; Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued ITB-26-00358 in July 2026 (due August 18, 2026) for three animal control vans equipped with temperature-controlled containment systems, estimated at $270,000; Tempe Police Department issued an RFQ in July 2026 (due September 1, 2026) for a vehicle arresting device on a one-year agreement with four optional renewal years; and the Florida Department of Transportation District Seven posted a single source purchase in April 2026 (due May 15, 2026) for 15 units of the DebrisClear System, a debris removal front-bumper system, estimated at $358,500. Activity under this code reflects specialized vehicle equipment procurement rather than generic bumper guards, suggesting the code may be misaligned with actual purchasing intent or that state and local jurisdictions are using it as a catch-all for vehicle modifications and attachments.
