UNSPSC 30266401: Rubber bar

Bar of various cross sections produced from rubber

UNSPSC 30266401 Rubber bar is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure vehicle upholstery repair and replacement services, including materials, labor, and associated supplies for school buses and county fleet vehicles. The recent solicitations show that this code captures end-to-end upholstery restoration — reupholstery work in automotive-grade fabric or vinyl, labor, transportation, and parts warranties — rather than rubber components alone. Issuing bodies include school districts and county transportation or fleet management departments; Fairfax County Public Schools and Sacramento County have both posted under the code within the past four months.

Activity appears concentrated in Virginia and California. Fairfax County, Virginia issued an IFB on June 12, 2026 (due July 6, 2026) for school bus upholstery repair, replacement, supplies, and labor across the county fleet. Sacramento County issued an RFB on March 27, 2026 (due March 27, 2026) for vehicle upholstery repair services on an as-needed basis for county-owned vehicles, with a maximum contract value of $84,000 and an initial 12-month term extendable for four additional one-year terms; the Sacramento contract is part of the Sacramento County Procurement Alliance (SCOPA), a cooperative purchasing vehicle that extends opportunities to other governmental, educational, and non-profit entities. Both opportunities require contractors to perform work in-house without subcontracting, maintain specified insurance coverage (Sacramento requires $2,000,000 general liability per occurrence), and warrant parts and labor for extended periods. Sacramento specifically mandates location within one hour of the Fleet Services Division and compliance with local and micro-business preference scoring.
