UNSPSC 26101101: Automotive motor AC

UNSPSC 26101101 Automotive motor AC is a Commodity code covering motorized air-conditioning systems and related components that state and local governments procure for fleet maintenance, facility climate control, and emergency power equipment integration. Recent solicitations reveal that the code captures a broad range of buying activity extending beyond the nominal "automotive motor AC" descriptor—notably generator procurement, installation, preventive maintenance, and parts supply, alongside genuine vehicle air-conditioning services for school buses and specialized equipment trailers. The mix of issuing bodies spans county governments (Beaufort County, Collier County, Henry County, DeKalb County, Cobb County, Harris County), cities (Phoenix, Ocala, Arlington, Dallas, Tallahassee, Taylor, Fort Myers), school districts (Volusia County Schools, Northside ISD, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Gwinnett County Public Schools), special-purpose authorities (Bergen County Utilities Authority, Peachtree City Airport Authority, Seminole County), and higher-education institutions (Texas Southern University). Generator-related work dominates the recent pipeline, with standalone emergency-generator procurement (125 kW to 750 kW units), generator installation with associated electrical and construction work, and multi-year preventive-maintenance and emergency-repair contracts representing the bulk of postings. Facilities being equipped or serviced include detention centers, airports, wastewater treatment plants, water utilities, health departments, fire stations, administrative buildings, and utility operations centers.

Recent opportunities span Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Colorado, Texas, Michigan, Illinois, New York, and beyond, with notable concentrations in the Southeast. Representative recent activity includes Beaufort County, South Carolina's ITB 2024-REQ-010 requesting procurement and installation of a 350-kilowatt diesel generator, automatic transfer switch, and associated electrical and construction work for the Administration Building by November 10, 2026; the City of Phoenix's IFB-26-0395 requesting five-year preventive maintenance, testing, and 24/7 emergency repair services for over 300 industrial generators (35 kW to 3,500 kW) across municipal facilities, with offers due October 9, 2026; Seminole County, Florida's three-year RFP-604608-23/LNF calling for multiple vendors to provide routine maintenance and emergency generator services for approximately 230 generators on a 24-hour basis; Hillsborough County Public Schools' RFP 26-286 seeking school bus air-conditioning maintenance and repair services for diesel, electric, propane, and gasoline-powered buses under a Small Business Encouragement Program with 20 percent SBEP reinvestment goals; and City Colleges of Chicago's job-order contract MWJ2606 for low-voltage electrical systems and security products across all district facilities, with 25 percent MBE and 7 percent WBE participation requirements and a bid due date of October 21, 2026. The code sees steady activity across RFP, RFQ, IFB, and ITB formats, with many multi-year or renewable term structures reflecting ongoing maintenance and standby-power needs at public facilities.
