UNSPSC 40151605: Motor compressors

UNSPSC 40151605 Motor compressors (Commodity) represents diesel-powered and electrically driven compression equipment that state and local governments procure for road maintenance, emergency response infrastructure, and operational support. Recent solicitations show purchasing focused on trailer-mounted rotary screw air compressors rated for pneumatic tool operation and stationary equipment for fire department and public works applications, with an emphasis on newly manufactured units meeting OSHA and ANSI safety standards.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county governments, state transportation departments, and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-jurisdictional buyer groups. The Illinois Department of Transportation has been active on trailer-mounted air compressor procurements across multiple districts. Solicitations favor established manufacturers and authorized dealers over third-party resellers, require firm pricing for extended hold periods (typically 180 days), mandate current safety certifications, and stipulate 12-month manufacturer warranties covering defects and workmanship at no cost to the buyer. Geographic activity centers on Illinois (IDOT Districts 1–4) and Florida (Hillsborough County); a multi-state cooperative purchasing opportunity through Sourcewell in Minnesota expanded scope to include participating jurisdictions in Washington and other states. Representative recent opportunities include the Illinois Department of Transportation's rebid for 250 cfm and 375 cfm diesel-powered trailer-mounted units (IFB B49477, due July 20, 2026, for IDOT Districts 1–4) and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners' inclusion of operational equipment in a broader janitorial and operational supplies ITB (ITB-26-00319, due July 24, 2026, $765,679.84 estimated contract value). The cooperative Sourcewell RFP #061626 for law enforcement equipment (due June 16, 2026) positions participating entities across multiple states to leverage collective purchasing power for standardized contracting terms.
