UNSPSC 40101726: Oil cooler

Oil as a coolant to remove excessive heat from internal combustion engines.

UNSPSC 40101726 Oil cooler (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local contract activity posted under this code. The opportunities reflect HVAC system replacement, maintenance, and installation work—rooftop units, split systems, packaged air handlers, cooling towers, water treatment services, and building management system upgrades—rather than discrete oil cooler procurement or installation.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent solicitation work is substantial. Issued bodies posting under this code span state departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services, State of Oregon DAS, Texas Military Department), counties (Okaloosa County Florida, Hancock County Mississippi, Williamson County Texas, Broward County Florida, Hillsborough County Florida, Clay County Florida, Chatham County Georgia), cities (Huntsville Texas, Tampa Florida, Eastman Georgia, Charlotte North Carolina, Norwalk Connecticut), school districts (Stephens County Schools Georgia, Parkway School District Missouri, Norwalk Public Schools Connecticut), and special-purpose districts (Superior Court Los Angeles County). Recent opportunities cluster in Texas, Florida, Georgia, and Connecticut, with scattered activity in Mississippi, Oregon, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Illinois. Representative solicitations include the City of Huntsville's IFB for HVAC services (responses due October 27, 2026), Okaloosa County's ITB for preconditioned air and ground power units at Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport (responses due October 28, 2026), and Broward County's IFB for split AC unit removal and replacement at the landfill (responses due September 30, 2026). The underlying work—preventive maintenance, system installation, removal and disposal, startup, testing, and commissioning—reflects facility HVAC operations rather than oil cooler supply or service as the code nominally describes. Code application appears misaligned with procurement intent; business development professionals should verify the actual commodity or service classification before pursuing opportunities flagged under 40101726.
