UNSPSC 48140102: Specialized professional service robot

A robot that provides other specialized services such as serving, delivery, and goods handling

UNSPSC 48140102 Specialized professional service robot (Commodity) describes equipment state and local governments are purchasing for education and public facilities operations, not the abstract service provision the code name suggests. Recent solicitations document school districts, community colleges, and municipal departments procuring specific robotic hardware—collaborative robot arms for vocational training, autonomous field-painting systems for parks maintenance, and educational robotics kits—alongside the software, installation, training, and support required to deploy them. The buying pattern is equipment-centric rather than labor-centric; issuing bodies specify technical requirements (payload capacity, positioning accuracy, battery runtime, software compatibility) and expect vendors to deliver turnkey solutions including freight, installation, and onsite instruction.

Arapahoe Community College (State of Colorado) posted two documented quotes in April 2026 for a Universal Robots UR5e Collaborative Robot Arm workstation system with gripper accessories, due April 24, 2026, with delivery required by June 30, 2026; the City of Fort Worth (Tarrant County, Texas) issued RFQt 26-0123 in March 2026 for one robotic athletic field painter with RTK-GNSS positioning, training, and warranty support, due March 9, 2026, with a one-year term and four renewal options. Katy Independent School District (Harris County, Texas) issued RFP 2428KD-A for teaching and instructional materials including robotics supplies and 3D printers, due May 29, 2026, through October 2027 with optional three-year renewals. Cartwright Elementary School District No. 83, procuring on behalf of the SAVE cooperative for multiple Arizona jurisdictions, issued RFP 260331 for STEM and College & Career Readiness Kits, Programs & Materials due June 8, 2026, with estimated annual usage of $1,346,000 across fifteen participating school districts. Recent activity clusters in Texas, Colorado, and Arizona; school districts and municipal parks departments are the primary buyers.
