UNSPSC 46171700: Vehicle access control

Devices, permits and related materials that enable facilities to provide secure visitor vehicle access control while also identifying visitors

UNSPSC 46171700 Vehicle access control, a Class code, covers parking management infrastructure and services that state and local governments procure to manage parking capacity, revenue collection, and customer access across owned facilities. Recent solicitations show municipalities and airport authorities buying comprehensive parking systems combining access control equipment (kiosks, License Plate Recognition sensors, gates), payment processing, real-time occupancy monitoring, citation management, and cloud-based reporting platforms. The scope spans turnkey system replacements, equipment-only upgrades, data analytics services, and multi-year managed operations encompassing both on-street and off-street parking. Issuing bodies include city departments of transportation, airport authorities, county governments, and municipal redevelopment agencies. The work often requires integration with existing enforcement systems, compliance with local and state prevailing-wage rules, and performance bonds or letters of credit.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida, Georgia, and Illinois. The Melbourne Airport Authority is soliciting parking management and revenue control services for Melbourne Orlando International Airport under RFP 2025-1009 (proposals due November 6, 2025), requiring a five-year base term with comprehensive system replacement and $50,500 annual management fee.

The Village of Schaumburg, Illinois is replacing four parking kiosks at a Metra commuter lot under RFP 2026-RFP-050 (due August 7, 2026), requiring multi-space units with LPR integration and 10-year modem support guarantees. The City of Atlanta Department of Transportation and the City of Dallas are managing broader on-street and citation management services through IFB and RFP vehicles, and the Beaverton Urban Redevelopment Agency is procuring parking data analytics and interpretation services under RFP #26-044 (due June 23, 2026) to analyze License Plate Recognition enforcement data. No set-aside or preference programs are consistently identified across these opportunities.
