UNSPSC 25175002: Electric vehicle charging station

Non-portable charging station used to recharge vehicle battery. Primarily home-based.

UNSPSC 25175002 Electric vehicle charging station is a Commodity code that encompasses procurement of complete EV charging infrastructure—hardware, installation, and related services—by state agencies, counties, municipalities, and special districts. State and local buyers are soliciting two broad categories of work under this code: turnkey installation of Level 2 and DC fast-charging stations at public facilities, fleet depots, and parking lots, including trenching, electrical integration, site restoration, and third-party testing; and dedicated repair and maintenance services for existing charging networks. Representative recent activity includes the California Department of General Services procuring Level 2 dual-port EVSE installation at the Caltrans Ventura Field Office (IFB, bids due October 21, 2026), the California Department of State Hospitals seeking qualified contractors for quarterly preventative maintenance and emergency repair of 19 BTC Power Level 2 stations at Coalinga (IFB 26-64007, bids due September 4, 2026), and the City of Nashua, New Hampshire soliciting supply and installation of four networked Level 2 chargers at a municipal parking lot under Davis-Bacon prevailing-wage requirements (RFP, proposals due August 12, 2026). Smaller jurisdictions and educational institutions are also active buyers: the Town of Ridgefield, Connecticut sought six Level 2 stations across municipal properties (sealed bid, June 30, 2026), and the University of Southern Mississippi solicited a solar-powered multi-unit e-bike and e-scooter charging station (sealed bid, September 1, 2026).

Recent opportunities cluster in California and the Northeast, with secondary activity in Colorado, Florida, Mississippi, and Delaware. California state agencies—particularly the Executive Office of Sustainability on behalf of operational departments—have issued multiple IFBs in 2026 restricted to small business and disabled veteran business enterprise (DVBE) contractors holding C-10 electrical licenses and registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations. The Delaware Department of Transportation issued a statewide RFP under the federal NEVI program (Round 2, proposals due August 4, 2026) seeking both Level 2 and DCFC deployments at alternative fuel corridors and multifamily-dense areas. Boulder County, Colorado pursued a goods-and-delivery-only purchase of ChargePoint stations (sole-source specification, September 9, 2026), while Pinellas County Schools in Florida solicited motor vehicle batteries supporting a fleet-charging initiative (sealed electronic bid, August 19, 2026). Installation work in jurisdictions with prevailing-wage requirements (California, New Hampshire) commands higher labor compliance costs; vendors should verify electrical licensing, insurance minimums (typically $1–$2 million general liability), and performance bonding at 100% of contract price when bidding public facilities.
