UNSPSC 10131602: Kennels

UNSPSC 10131602 Kennels (Commodity) covers the design, procurement, construction, and installation of animal housing facilities — including kennels, cat condos, and related infrastructure — that state and local governments procure for animal shelters, control facilities, and public pet resource centers. Recent solicitations show jurisdictions buying both purpose-built kennel systems (stainless steel dog kennels and cat cages integrated into new shelter facilities) and modular cat condos and towers for existing facilities, along with associated operational maintenance and animal boarding services that depend on kennel infrastructure.

Issuing bodies pursuing this work include county governments (Habersham County Board of Commissioners in Georgia, Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida), cities (City of Windcrest in Texas), and municipal transit authorities (Jacksonville Transportation Authority, though its transit-shelter maintenance work is tangentially related). The Habersham County RFP for 2026-11 Animal Shelter Kennels (posted April 7, 2026, due May 13, 2026) sought design and installation of comprehensive kennel systems across an approximately 18,000 square-foot facility, including stainless steel cat cages and dog kennels in adoption, intake, isolation, and holding areas. Hillsborough County's ITB 2600149 for Cat Condos and Towers (posted March 5, 2026, due March 31, 2026) solicited a one-time purchase and installation of Shor-line and Midmark branded cat housing units at its Pet Resource Center with an estimated project value of $350,000.00. The City of Windcrest RFP-2025-2026-001 (issued January 22, 2026) extended an animal boarding and kenneling services contract for day-to-day shelter operations accommodating up to 30 animals daily with optional bonus payments for rescue placements. Recent activity is concentrated in Florida, Georgia, and Texas, though the source does not support characterization of activity beyond those three states.
