UNSPSC 25191804: Radiator tester

A device that tests the condition and performance of vehicle radiators by testing the capability of caps and leakage of core or tank of radiator by applying air pressure.

UNSPSC 25191804 Radiator tester (Commodity) covers vehicle diagnostic and testing services for fleet maintenance, as exemplified by recent school district and municipal solicitations seeking hourly labor for transmission, fuel system, drivetrain, exhaust, brake, EGR, body electronics, starting system, DEF, and charging system diagnosis and repair. The work involves both labor and materials supplied by the contractor, priced on a per-hour basis with firm pricing for 12 months, F.O.B. Destination, Net 45 payment terms, and no minimum order requirements. State and local buyers under this code include school districts managing large vehicle fleets (ranging from 83 vehicles in single-manufacturer maintenance contracts to 1,000-plus-vehicle fleets across multiple makes), municipal fleet management departments, and county transportation agencies. Issuing bodies encourage participation by HCPS Office of Supplier Development-registered small business enterprises, women-owned, minority-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, with tied-bid preferences for certified SBEs in some cases and local-vendor preferences where applicable (such as Leon, Wakulla, Gadsden, or Jefferson County residency for six-plus months prior to bid due date). Vendors typically must demonstrate a minimum of three years' experience in the relevant diagnostic services, hold active business registration and current licenses, maintain appropriate insurance (workers' compensation, commercial general liability with issuing body named as additional insured), comply with background screening (Jessica Lunsford Act), and submit foreign-country-of-concern and labor-coercion affidavits.

Recent opportunities cluster in Florida: Hillsborough County Public Schools has issued four separate ITQs (26252ITQDST for Chevrolet diagnostic services due July 10, 2026; 26249ITQDST for Dodge services due July 7, 2026; 26307ITQDST for Isuzu and Hino services due July 29, 2026) and the City of Tallahassee Fleet Management Department posted an IFB (IFB07926KM) for annual dielectric inspection and testing of insulated aerial devices, bucket trucks, boom trucks, digger derricks, cranes, forklifts, fire aerial units, and ground ladders with bids due June 23, 2026, under a three-year base contract with two optional one-year renewals. The Hillsborough County School District solicitations emphasize hourly labor rates for transmission, fuel system, drivetrain, exhaust, brake, EGR, body electronics, starting system, DEF, and charging system services, with estimated annual usage of 50 to 100 hours per category. All contracts require firm pricing, compliance with E-Verify, and submission via VendorLink portal or equivalent procurement platform; bids remain valid for 120 days after due date.
