UNSPSC 25175200: Specialized safety and rescue vehicle accessory

Accessories for safety and rescue vehicles such as vehicle stabilization system, halligan bars, whacker tools, etc.

UNSPSC 25175200 Specialized safety and rescue vehicle accessory, a Class code, encompasses the custom equipment, components, and modifications that state and local governments integrate into emergency response vehicles—ranging from custom fire apparatus bodies and ARFF systems to ambulance configurations, lighting packages, and rescue equipment storage modules. State and local procurement activity under the code reflects a diverse mix of complete apparatus builds on commercial chassis, retrofit and upfitting services for existing vehicles, and specialized equipment components for fire, rescue, EMS, and airport operations. Washington County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) solicited competitive bids in October 2026 for a complete 2027 Ford F550 mini rescue vehicle with custom aluminum body, seven compartments, pump module, and integrated lighting for the Sandersville Fire Department under ITB PE33306NONST2027000000027, with sealed bids due November 23, 2026. Greenville County, South Carolina issued RFP #26003 in October 2026 for a customized Ram 3500 squad truck with center console, winch, and emergency lighting modifications for the Tigerville Fire Department, proposals due July 25, 2025. Lowndes County, Georgia requested bids on six new brush trucks built on Ford F550 extended-cab chassis with off-road suspension, 300-gallon water tank, CET fire pump, hose reels, and LED lightbar systems under IFB LC-241630-6, with bids due September 17, 2026 and mandatory pre-bid September 3, 2026 at the Public Safety Training Center in Valdosta. Additional recent activity includes Broward County's solicitation for one structural fire engine with 510 hp Cummins engine and Allison transmission for aviation and county agency use (September 2026, bids due September 14 with two submissions received), Bryan County's RFP for two custom Type 1 Ambulances (August 2026, proposals due September 10), and Chatham County's ITB for five new fire truck pumpers with Cummins L9-450 diesel engines and Hale Q-Max pumps (April 2026, bids due May 28 with 30% M/WBE participation goal).

Issuing bodies are concentrated among Georgia, South Carolina, and Florida county boards and municipal fire departments, with emerging activity from state purchasing divisions, transit authorities, and special-purpose districts. Georgia counties appear as the highest-volume recent buyers, with Washington, Lowndes, Chatham, Bryan, and Tift Counties each issuing equipment solicitations between July and October 2026. Specialized retrofits and ARFF conversions span Broward County (Florida), Pembroke Pines (Florida), and cities including Phoenix and Detroit seeking vehicle upfitting and apparatus maintenance services. Geographic concentration is strongest in the Southeast (Georgia, South Carolina, Florida), with secondary activity in Texas, Utah, and Arizona. The code shows sustained procurement momentum: seventeen clearly equipment-related opportunities posted between April and October 2026, with response deadlines clustered between May and November 2026. Cooperative purchasing frameworks—including NASPO Value Point (Mississippi RFP for fire apparatus on June 2, 2026), Texas TIPS (May 2026 prospective use solicitation), and Georgia Department of Administrative Services statewide contracts (August and September 2026 for police and special operations vehicles)—indicate growing multi-jurisdictional procurement structures that may accelerate vendor qualification and contract awards across multiple states simultaneously.
