UNSPSC 10131602: Kennels

UNSPSC 10131602 Kennels (Commodity) covers fabrication and delivery of kennel structures and enclosure systems for animal control and law enforcement K9 operations. State and local governments solicit under this code for both new kennel facility construction—pre-engineered metal buildings with temperature control and integrated containment infrastructure—and replacement or upgrade components for existing systems, including custom stainless-steel panel assemblies with mesh and sound-dampening cores. Issuing bodies include municipal animal control departments, county boards of commissioners, and police departments; these entities sometimes bundle kennel procurement with associated equipment such as customized animal transport vans fitted with insulated, climate-controlled compartments and drainage systems.

Recent activity shows solicitations concentrated in Texas jurisdictions. The City of Greenville, Texas released an RFP (2025RFP045REBID, due November 2, 2026) for Phase 1 construction of a 101-by-50-foot pre-engineered metal kennel building with eight bays, drilled pier foundations, and concrete per ACI standards. The City of Sandy Springs (Georgia) pursued a sole-source procurement (PE66098NONST2027000000147, public challenge deadline September 8, 2026) for Midmark Shor-Line custom stainless-steel top and ceiling panel enclosures ($6,021.33) to integrate with an existing K9 unit kennel system. Hillsborough County, Florida Board of County Commissioners issued an ITB (ITB2600358, due August 18, 2026) for three animal control vans with integrated insulated kennel compartments and climate control ($270,000 estimated). The mix reflects demand across both major facility construction and modular replacement components, with no repeat buyers appearing in the recent-opportunities block.
