UNSPSC 95121705: Fire station

A building used to house fire department operations

UNSPSC 95121705 Fire station, a Commodity code, describes public facilities—administrative and operational buildings—that house fire and emergency response personnel and equipment. Recent state and local solicitations under this code span new fire station construction, renovation and hardening of existing facilities to meet current code and resiliency standards, and equipment installation including apparatus bays, living quarters, training spaces, decontamination and SCBA rooms, and mechanical and life-safety systems. Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include county governments and municipal fire-rescue authorities. County commissioners and city governments in Florida dominate recent activity, with Escambia County (Pensacola) and Collier County (Naples) posting construction solicitations in July 2026 for new stations and expansions totaling approximately $5.6 million to $12.78 million, respectively. Work is typically procured as IFB or ITB for sealed competitive bids on a firm-fixed-price or lump-sum basis, with mandatory pre-bid meetings, substantial completion windows of 365–456 calendar days, performance and payment bonds at 100 percent of contract value, and liquidated damages in the range of $1,839 to $3,813 per day for schedule failure.

Escambia County Board of County Commissioners is requesting sealed bids for Paradise Beach Fire Station 20, a new approximately 12,780-square-foot, three-bay fire station at 1250 Bauer Road, Pensacola, Florida, under ITB PD2526094, with bids due August 12, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. and a mandatory pre-bid meeting on July 20, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. The station will house ten emergency response personnel and include three 75-foot apparatus bays, administrative offices, bunk rooms, day room, fitness room, decontamination room, SCBA room, workshop, and laundry facilities, with all mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, communications, and life-safety systems meeting current operational requirements and resiliency standards. Collier County Board of County Commissioners is procuring the Collier Senior Center Expansion Project under IFB 26-8672, with bids due August 31, 2026 at 3:00 p.m., which includes a 2,710-square-foot addition and hardening of an existing 7,120-square-foot facility at 4898 Coronado Parkway, Naples, Florida, adjacent to a fire rescue station that will remain operational during construction; the $5.6 million project is partially grant-funded through CDBG-MIT and requires an expedited schedule with Davis-Bacon prevailing wage, Section 3 employment participation goals, and local-vendor preferences using the Choice2 vehicle.
