UNSPSC 25191526: Automatic terminal information service ATIS

Automatic terminal information service, or ATIS, is a continuous broadcast of recorded aeronautical information in busier terminal areas, i.e. airports and their immediate surroundings. ATIS broadcasts contain essential information, such as current weather information, active runways, available approaches, and any other information required by the pilots, such as important Notices to Airmen (NOTAM) which alert aircraft pilots of potential hazards along a flight route or at a location that could affect the safety of the flight.

UNSPSC 25191526 Automatic terminal information service ATIS is a Commodity code covering flight information display systems, airport access control and video management, airfield lighting and photometric testing, baggage handling system operations, and air traffic control tower equipment and facilities. State and local procurement under this code reflects the full operational and capital lifecycle of airport infrastructure—from real-time passenger information systems to airside security and equipment maintenance. Lee County Port Authority in southwest Florida has emerged as a repeat buyer, posting multiple solicitations over the past three months for airfield photometric testing, baggage handling system operations and maintenance, and related airport services. Issuing bodies span airport authorities, county transportation and aviation departments, cities with municipal airports, and transit-adjacent public agencies. The code captures both the design-build and operations-and-maintenance models; recent activity includes RFPs for seven-year platform implementation and operations contracts, RFQs for technical testing and certification services, ITBs for equipment maintenance, and sealed bids for capital infrastructure projects.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida (Lee County and Pinellas County airports, City of St. Petersburg), with notable secondary activity in Texas (City of Dallas, City of McKinney, Texas State University) and Georgia (Peachtree City Airport Authority). Representative recent solicitations include Lee County Port Authority's RFP 260073LB for six-year baggage handling system operation, management, and maintenance at Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW), due September 21, 2026, encompassing two outbound automated systems and inbound carousel devices with 24/7 support and a 97 percent monthly delivery standard; Greater Orlando Aviation Authority's ITN 26-302 for a seven-year Flight Information Display System platform design, implementation, and maintenance serving 1,000+ display devices at a nine-million-passenger-annually airport, due August 27, 2026 with interviews and board approval targeted for December 2026; and Lee County Port Authority's RFQ 2026115BW for airfield photometric testing of runway and taxiway lighting at Southwest Florida International Airport, due October 29, 2026, requiring mobile test equipment, FAA Advisory Circular compliance, and three-year contract terms. Sourcewell's cooperative purchasing vehicle (RFP 26RFP090826, due September 8, 2026) for runway equipment and specialized airfield systems signals aggregated multi-jurisdictional procurement appetite across Sourcewell's Participating Entities.
