UNSPSC 10131600: Animal containment

UNSPSC 10131600 Animal containment is a Class code covering the purchase, design, installation, and maintenance of physical structures and equipment used to house, shelter, and manage animals in municipal and governmental settings. State and local governments procure under this code the concrete products and services needed to operate animal shelters, kennels, pounds, and control facilities — including kennel systems (stainless steel cages and dog runs), cat condos and towers, shelter programming and design, bedding and supplies, and the full-service care and boarding of seized or impounded animals. The issuing bodies are primarily municipal animal control departments, city parks and recreation divisions, and county commissioners' offices managing dedicated animal-care facilities. Cities like Tempe, Daytona Beach, Scottsdale, and Windcrest, as well as Habersham County in Georgia and Hillsborough County in Florida, have posted recent solicitations under or closely aligned with the code's scope.

Recent opportunities span design and construction services, one-time equipment procurements, and ongoing operational contracts. Herriman City issued an RFP in April 2026 for programming, schematic design, and site test fit services to convert an existing fire station into a full-function animal shelter, with schematic design and facility programming due by May 28, 2026. Habersham County posted an RFP for kennel design, construction, and installation at a new animal shelter facility, with proposals due May 13, 2026, and a mandatory pre-bid meeting in late April. Hillsborough County issued an ITB in March 2026 for cat condos and towers at the Pet Resource Center, with an estimated project value of $350,000.00 and delivery due within 60 days of award. The City of Windcrest sought animal care and boarding services through an RFP posted January 22, 2026, for daily kenneling and shelter services at $300–$650 per placement depending on timeline. Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, Georgia, Arizona, Texas, and Utah, with no single jurisdiction dominating the recent pipeline. The code shows moderate but consistent activity across municipal and county procurement offices, reflecting ongoing replacement and expansion of animal-control infrastructure and services.
