UNSPSC 27112912: Oil changer

A type of equipment used to withdraw old used oil and replace it with new oil when replacing oil for engine, transmission and final reduction gear in accordance with the interval for replacement.

UNSPSC 27112912 Oil changer, a Commodity code, addresses state and local procurement of motor oils, lubricants, automotive fluids, and related delivery and recycling services. Recent solicitations show school districts and municipalities buying bulk and packaged engine oils, synthetic transmission fluids, diesel exhaust fluid, greases, hydraulic fluids, and brake cleaners to support fleet maintenance operations. Work spans supply of new fluids on an as-needed basis through blanket purchase orders and term contracts, coupled increasingly with collection, recycling, and hazardous-waste management of used fluids. Issuing bodies include school districts (Parkway School District, Marion County School Board, Gwinnett County Public Schools), municipalities (City of Orlando, City of Tampa), and special-purpose district water authorities (Atlanta Department of Watershed Management). School districts dominate the recent activity, driven by routine fleet and bus maintenance demand across large operational fleets.

Geographic activity centers in Florida and Georgia. The School Board of Marion County solicited a six-month term contract (ITB 4188MF, due August 12, 2026) covering diesel heavy-duty engine oil, synthetic blends, greases, transmission fluid, hydraulic fluid, diesel exhaust fluid with tank installation at multiple locations, and brake cleaner—prices firm through March 30, 2027 with three optional one-year renewals.
