UNSPSC 27112911: Oil cup

A device used to supply a small quantity of oil to the lubrication section of machine, equipment and motor.

UNSPSC 27112911 Oil cup is a Commodity code capturing lubrication products, motor oils, hydraulic fluids, greases, transmission fluids, and related automotive maintenance supplies that state and local governments procure for fleet operations and facility maintenance. Recent solicitations show school districts, municipal fleet operators, and transit authorities buying these products under blanket purchase orders, term contracts, and fixed-price agreements with as-needed delivery. The work spans both supply of new fluids in bulk and packaged formats and, in some cases, collection and recycling of used automotive fluids as an integrated service. Issuing bodies include county school boards, city purchasing departments, special-purpose district authorities such as departments of watershed management, and independent school districts, with school transportation fleets representing a significant buyer segment across the recent opportunity set.

Activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, with recent opportunities posted by the School Board of Marion County (ITB 4188MF for engine oil, lubricants, diesel exhaust fluid, and brake cleaner, bids due August 12, 2026), Gwinnett County Public Schools in Georgia (B-2704BM for bulk and bottled motor oil and transmission fluid, bids due September 30, 2026 through Euna Procurement), the City of Orlando (IFB260538 for new vehicle fluids and used-fluid recycling, sealed bids due September 25, 2026), Parkway School District (solicitation 2751 for lubrication products under blanket purchase order, proposals due October 27, 2026), and the City of Tampa (RFQ 26-P-00418 for automotive shop supplies including antifreeze and hydraulic fluid, quotes due July 22, 2026). The Atlanta Department of Watershed Management posted activity (IFB/DWM/2606-1270045) for pump parts in September 2026 but does not reflect direct oil-cup procurement. Contract terms typically run six to twelve months with optional renewal periods, and awards often reserve the right to split awards across multiple vendors or designate primary and secondary suppliers based on lowest responsive and responsible bidding and past performance.
