UNSPSC 25174200: Steering system

UNSPSC 25174200 Steering system is a Class code covering the supply and maintenance of steering components for vehicle fleets operated by state and local governments. State and local procurement under this code focuses primarily on OEM replacement parts, repair services, and inventory management for automotive and heavy-equipment fleets—work that includes parts distribution, preventive and corrective maintenance labor, and integration with fleet management systems. Issuing bodies span school districts, county governments, municipal departments, and special-purpose fleet services divisions. School districts and county fleet operations appear as repeat buyers, driven by the need to maintain bus fleets and general automotive inventories on ongoing blanket purchase orders and supply agreements.

Recent opportunities reflect geographic spread across Florida, Georgia, Missouri, and Washington state. The School Board of Sarasota County, Florida issued Bid #26-0124 (due February 12, 2026) for a one-year automotive and light truck repair parts agreement with options to renew, requiring firm discounts off manufacturer list prices for OEM parts across 19 specified manufacturers. Parkway School District in Missouri released RFB 26120 (due May 19, 2026) for bus and vehicle OEM parts and service through a blanket purchase order, seeking qualified distributors and service providers to supply replacement parts and perform repair and maintenance operations on an as-needed basis. Brevard County Purchasing Services in Florida issued an IFB for Just-in-Time inventory management services covering automotive parts and supplies for a fleet of 1,114 assets, with a five-year contract term and an estimated budget of $730,000 for fiscal year 2025-26. The City of Atlanta Department of Public Works posted a Pre-Solicitation Notice (due May 1, 2026) for heavy-duty trailers, repair services, parts supply, and operator training, requiring vendors to provide OEM or equivalent replacement parts and maintain 80 percent inventory availability with 24-hour parts delivery for 90 percent of requests.
