UNSPSC 25190000: Transportation services equipment

UNSPSC 25190000 Transportation services equipment is a Family code encompassing the supply, lease, and customization of vehicles and specialized transportation assets that state and local governments procure for operational and service-delivery purposes. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying custom-fabricated prisoner-transport vans, public transit buses (35-foot low-floor models), chassis wash systems, heavy equipment transportation services, and related fleet infrastructure. The issuing bodies include county sheriffs' offices, municipal transit authorities, state departments of transportation, school districts, and county waste management divisions. Procurement vehicles range from traditional IFBs and RFPs to RFQs for equipment leasing, with awards made on lowest-responsive-responsible-bidder or competitive evaluation bases. Set-asides and local business preferences appear in some procurements — Orange County applies OCLSB and DVBE preferences, and Rhode Island mandates a 15% MBE set-aside on its vehicle wash system procurement. Insurance requirements are standard across the code family, typically including general liability of $1–$2 million per occurrence and workers' compensation at statutory limits.

Recent activity spans multiple states and regions. The County of Orange, California has posted solicitations for both prisoner-transport van fabrication (IFB due October 30, 2026) and heavy equipment transportation services. Park City Municipal Corporation, Utah is leasing six 35-foot transit buses (RFP due May 29, 2026), with delivery expected by September 15, 2026. The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority established a $120 million multi-vendor shuttle bus operator pool (RFP 105F-26, proposals due November 4, 2026). Rhode Island Department of Transportation is procuring a vehicle and chassis wash system (RFQ due May 27, 2026). The Berkshire Regional Transit Authority, Massachusetts is soliciting Intelligent Transportation Systems software and support (RFP due September 16, 2026) with FTA and Massachusetts procurement compliance requirements. Geographic spread includes California, Utah, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Florida, and Arizona, with activity concentrated among county governments, municipal transit authorities, and state DOT agencies. Estimated contract values for major procurements range from $20 million over five years (Orange County traffic signal equipment, not strictly within the code but tagged there) to $120 million across multiple vendors (MBTA shuttle bus pool), reflecting sustained investment in fleet modernization and specialized transport capacity.
