UNSPSC 40151600: Compressors

UNSPSC 40151600 Compressors is a Class code covering the procurement, maintenance, repair, and replacement of air and gas compressors across state and local government operations. State and local buyers use this code for preventative maintenance contracts on existing compressor systems, emergency repair services, equipment replacement and installation, and specialized compressor applications such as breathing air systems. Recent solicitations show a split between routine maintenance of existing equipment—particularly manufacturer-specific preventative maintenance on units already in service—and capital replacement projects that include equipment procurement, installation, startup, and commissioning. The issuing bodies include county sheriffs' departments, municipal fire and utility departments, state agencies, and regional utilities. County of Orange, California appears as a repeat buyer, with multiple maintenance solicitations for the same Powerex model compressor unit across different posting cycles.

Activity concentrates in California and Massachusetts, with secondary presence in Florida and Arizona. The Massachusetts Military Division issued an ITB 260461 for air compressor replacement at Camp Edwards with a rebid cycle and mandatory site visit on May 19, 2026, an estimated contract value of $40,000.00, and bids due May 28, 2026.
