UNSPSC 49201515: Step aerobic equipment

UNSPSC 49201515 Step aerobic equipment (Commodity) covers the purchase of cardio and strength training apparatus by state and local governments—principally exercise machines such as treadmills, upright and recumbent bikes, stair climbers, and cross trainers equipped with smart touchscreen consoles and adjustable resistance. Recent state and local solicitations show that buying bodies acquire this equipment both as single-unit replacements and as comprehensive fitness-facility buildouts, often bundled with installation, preventive maintenance, onsite repair, and parts support over multi-year periods. Jackson State University, Gwinnett County (Georgia), the City of Atlanta Fire Rescue Department, the State of Maine Military Bureau, and Trion City Schools (Georgia) have posted opportunities in the past six months ranging from small individual-machine purchases to full-scale fitness-center outfits with eighteen equipment groups and certified technician support requirements. The scope spans universities, counties, cities, school districts, and state military installations—a diverse mix of issuing bodies without a dominant repeat buyer pattern in the recent record.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast, with solicitations posted from Mississippi, Georgia, and Maine between April and August 2026. Representative recent opportunities include Jackson State University's sealed-bid IFB (solicitation 3170036338, response due August 12, 2026) for eight treadmills, five cross trainers, four recumbent bikes, two upright bikes, and two PowerMill climbers with smart consoles; Gwinnett County's June 2026 bid for a single Stairmaster with delivery; the City of Atlanta Fire Rescue Department's multi-step sealed-bid process (prequalification due June 30, 2026, IFB to follow) for commercial-grade cardio, strength, and accessory equipment with installation, four hours of instruction, and full maintenance and repair support; the State of Maine Military Bureau's RFQ for nine line items (two treadmills, benches, cable crossover, dumbbells, and racks with assembly and installation, response May 14, 2026); and Trion City Schools' IFB for a complete weight room including Rogers Athletic racks and benches, bumper plates, suspension trainers, kettlebells, and medicine balls (bid opening May 26, 2026). No federal set-asides or incumbent-vendor restrictions appear in recent solicitations; most require lowest-cost-conforming evaluation and FOB destination or delivered-pricing terms.
