UNSPSC 73161604: Motor vehicles manufacture services

UNSPSC 73161604 Motor vehicles manufacture services is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure vehicle customization, build-out, equipment installation, and operational services rather than raw vehicle manufacturing. Recent state and local solicitations show demand across police vehicle up-fitting, transit bus stop infrastructure work funded by the Federal Transit Administration, emergency response vehicle refurbishment, mobile library vehicle customization, specialized equipment transport (swamp buggies), and fleet vehicle purchasing with optional supplemental model-year pricing. The work encompasses both standalone vehicle procurement and comprehensive systems integration—from mounting two-way radios and camera systems to complete interior and exterior modifications, structural reinforcement, lighting and electrical systems installation, and technology platform integration. Issuing bodies span state transportation and criminal investigation departments, counties, cities, transit authorities, and specialized agencies; repeat buyers include the Florida Department of Financial Services (Division of Criminal Investigations) and Broward County Transportation Department, both conducting concurrent multi-phase vehicle equipment and infrastructure projects.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida (Broward County transit bus stops, Clay County container services, Florida Fish and Wildlife swamp buggy, Florida Department of Financial Services statewide response team vehicles) and spreads across Connecticut (state vehicle fleet supplemental pricing), California (Los Angeles Superior Court equipment procurement), Maryland (Calvert County mobile library vehicle customization), and Wisconsin (Lake Geneva trolley operations). Representative current opportunities include Broward County Transportation Department's November 2, 2026 ITB for ADA-compliant bus stop landing pads and transit amenities funded 70 percent by the Federal Transit Administration with Davis-Bacon prevailing wage compliance; the City of Meriden, Connecticut's July 29, 2026 sealed-bid solicitation for purchase and up-fitting of seven Ford Interceptor Utility police vehicles with Whelen and Havis warning systems and mobile data terminal installation; the Florida Department of Financial Services' July 17, 2026 (amended from June 23) RFP for build-out and equipment installation of two Ford F-550 4x4 Super Cab Chassis with 83 specified line items including structural components, LED light towers, electric winches, and emergency warning systems; and Calvert County Government, Maryland's September 18, 2026 ITB for customization of one 2026 Ford Transit mobile library vehicle with swivel seats, ADA-compliant lift gates, lithium battery systems, climate control, and full custom vinyl wrap with automatic roof awning.
