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, encompasses equipment and supplies for changing and servicing vehicle lubricants in municipal fleet maintenance operations. State and local governments buy under this code primarily through repair parts agreements and automotive maintenance supply contracts, where oil changers function as equipment ancillary to broader fleet service agreements. Recent solicitations show the code applies to both dedicated equipment procurement (standalone lifts or lubrication systems) and to bundled automotive repair supply agreements where oil-change capability and supporting tools are specified alongside filters, gaskets, and related parts. Issuing bodies include county purchasing departments, city fleet maintenance divisions, school boards operating vehicle fleets, and municipal departments managing transportation infrastructure. The mix spans counties (Paulding County, Worth County, Collier County, Williamson County in Georgia and Florida), cities (Tampa, Valdosta, Atlanta), and school districts (Sarasota County Schools), with no single repeat buyer dominating recent activity.

Activity concentrates in Georgia and Florida, with recent postings across the two states. Representative opportunities include the City of Tampa's RFQ 26-P-00418 (Inventory Automotive Shop Equipment, Accessories, and Supplies, due July 22, 2026) soliciting 19 line items of automotive maintenance supplies including fluid and filtration products for delivery to city locations; the City of Valdosta's ITB #38-26 (Annual Bulk Oils and Lubes, due April 21, 2026) for sealed bids on bulk oils and lubrication products; the School Board of Sarasota County's Bid #26-0124 (Automotive/Light Truck Repair Parts, due February 12, 2026) establishing a one-year supply agreement with percentage discounts off manufacturer list prices for OEM parts across 19 specified manufacturers; and Paulding County's RFP #26024-1601 (Compressed Air & Lubrication System for Fleet Maintenance, due March 20, 2026) for turnkey design and installation of a vendor-designed lubrication system at the county fleet facility. Most solicitations are IFBs or RFQs with 48-hour to one-week delivery requirements and FOB Destination terms, reflecting the operational criticality of fleet maintenance supply chains.
