UNSPSC 60105308: Team building skills instructional materials

UNSPSC 60105308 Team building skills instructional materials is a Commodity code. State and local governments use this code to procure educational content, curriculum materials, and instructional resources designed to build soft skills, leadership competencies, and character development in K-12 and higher education settings. Recent solicitations show school districts and state education agencies buying core curriculum textbooks and digital resources aligned to state academic standards, supplemental instructional materials for specialized subjects, open educational resources (OER) platforms, and professional development or training content. The buying pattern diverges markedly from the abstract code title: the dominant activity is procurement of comprehensive subject-matter curricula (English Language Arts, mathematics, nursing, Spanish language instruction) rather than discrete team-building or soft-skills modules. Issuing bodies include state education agencies (Texas Education Agency, Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board), independent school districts (Tempe Elementary, Pinellas County, Katy ISD, Dallas ISD, Gwinnett County, Houghton Lake Community Schools, Wicomico County), and specialized state boards (School Board of Seminole County). School districts appear as the primary repeat buyers, with multiple concurrent solicitations for curriculum adoption and instructional resource frameworks.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, Arizona, Michigan, and Maryland. Representative opportunities include the Texas Education Agency's RFP 701-26-027 (posted October 14, 2026, due November 13, 2026) for PreK-12 Open Education Resources sourcing, custom content development, and continuous improvement services across social studies and character education; Tempe Elementary School District's RFP 270532 (posted September 30, 2026, due October 27, 2026) for K-8 English Language Arts core curriculum adoption with textbooks, digital resources, and supplemental materials; and Dallas Independent School District's RFP EO250353 (posted July 26, 2026, due August 27, 2026) for Visual and Performing Arts instructional materials with a 30 percent Small Business Enterprise participation goal. The Texas Education Agency also issued a statewide SMART Buy framework (solicitation 260904, posted September 3, 2026, due October 16, 2026) for an indefinite-delivery vehicle serving multiple using agencies. Most school district solicitations specify three- to five-year terms with renewal options, firm pricing, digital platform access by spring 2027, and delivery by May 2027 to align with the academic calendar.
