UNSPSC 25174809: Vehicle ladder

A ladder that has a device for attachment to a land vehicle. It is used for getting on and off the vehicle.

UNSPSC 25174809 Vehicle ladder, a Commodity code, appears in state and local procurement activity centered on fleet parts and maintenance services rather than ladders themselves. The recent opportunities bearing this code tag cover vehicle parts supply agreements, battery procurement, tire services, mechanical repair, fleet upfitting, and alternator or starter replacement — a pattern suggesting either broad tagging misalignment or that the code is occasionally applied to vehicle-mounted equipment or ladder racks installed on fleet vehicles during upfitting work. The issuing bodies span school districts (Pinellas County Schools, Seminole County Public Schools, Sarasota County Schools, Rockwood School District, Parkway School District), counties (Brevard County, San Bernardino County, Collier County, Jackson County, Columbia County), cities (City of Eugene, City of Atlanta, City of Philadelphia, City of Gainesville, City of Dallas, City of Orlando, Town of Palm Beach), state agencies (Texas Department of Transportation, Texas A&M University, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, Commonwealth of Kentucky), and special authorities (San Bernardino County Sheriff, Regional Transit System). The work solicited is almost entirely automotive parts, vehicle maintenance and repair services, and fleet support — OEM and aftermarket parts, battery supply, tire recapping, mechanical services, and emergency repair coverage rather than ladder procurement or installation.

Recent activity is geographically dispersed across Texas, Florida, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Ohio, Illinois, Pennsylvania, and other jurisdictions with no clear concentration. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Eugene's RFP 20272006 for a fleet vehicle and equipment parts price agreement with response due August 6, 2026; Texas A&M University's ITB for after-market auto parts at discounts from list price, due July 21, 2026; San Bernardino County's ITB for Chevrolet/GM OE auto parts, awarded March 2026; Brevard County's solicitation for just-in-time inventory management and parts supply services with bid opening February 25, 2026; Columbia County's RFP for fleet vehicle upfitting services including ladder racks and storage solutions, due April 9, 2026; and Philadelphia's bid for tire recapping and repair services, due April 29, 2026. The code shows little direct relevance to vehicle-ladder procurement in the traditional sense and warrants review of whether current tagging practices reflect actual buying activity or represent legacy taxonomy assignments that no longer match the work being solicited.
