UNSPSC 26101105: Heating and cooling system motor AC

UNSPSC 26101105 Heating and cooling system motor AC is a Commodity code covering motor-driven HVAC components that state and local governments procure as replacements, upgrades, and new installations across facility portfolios. Recent solicitations show purchase of individual AC motors, compressors, condensing units, and air-handling equipment as standalone line items or bundled with installation services at correctional facilities, municipal offices, schools, water treatment plants, and other public buildings. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) dominates the recent activity, issuing multiple unit-level bids for HVAC parts and accessories across its prison facilities (Clemens, Coffield, Wynne, Gorey, Ferguson, Ellis, Wainwright, and others), reflecting steady replacement demand at aging infrastructure. Beyond TDCJ, work includes central AC replacements for county and school-district facilities, water-treatment and building-management system integration projects, and boiler/chiller maintenance contracts. Issuing bodies are predominantly state correctional agencies and county governments, with secondary activity from cities (Fort Worth, Wheat Ridge, Tampa, Charlotte), school districts (Marshall, Stephens County, Saginaw), and specialized authorities (water districts, mosquito control).

Recent HVAC procurement activity concentrates in Texas, with TDCJ facilities generating the highest volume of competitive solicitations for components and installation. Georgia counties and school districts, Florida municipalities, Michigan school districts, Oregon state agencies, and Colorado and Pennsylvania local governments show secondary regional presence. Representative opportunities include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice soliciting bids for HVAC equipment and accessories at Clemens Unit (IW267278, IFB, due October 23, 2026), Coffield Unit (IW267943, IFB, due October 23, 2026), and Wynne Unit (IW266712, IFB, due October 22, 2026); the City of Wheat Ridge requesting mini-split AC installation at the Green at 38th (RFP 2648, due October 2, 2026); Orange County, Florida procuring building automation and smoke control system upgrades with HVAC duct accessories at a corrections facility ($2.89 million estimated value, IFB Y26-718, due October 20, 2026); the State of Oregon issuing an RFP for HVAC water-treatment services across 24 DAS-owned buildings (S1070000017049, due October 5, 2026, $5 million maximum); and the Stephens County Board of Education in Georgia seeking a construction manager at risk for districtwide HVAC and roof improvements ($20–26 million ESPLOST-funded project, RFP PE55598NONST2027000000002, due October 9, 2026).
