UNSPSC 70101700: Fishery industry and technology

UNSPSC 70101700 Fishery industry and technology is a Class code covering specialized aquatic and fish husbandry services, equipment, and operational support that state and local governments procure to sustain recreational fishing programs, environmental monitoring in aquatic systems, and public fishing opportunities. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers contracting for bait supply services at public marinas, fish nursery operations and maintenance, environmental data-logging equipment for aquatic monitoring, and related technical services. Issuing bodies span county park and recreation departments, state environmental agencies, and special-purpose districts managing fish and wildlife resources in collaboration with state fisheries commissions.

Activity under the code is geographically dispersed across multiple regions with recent opportunities posted in Georgia, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts has issued multiple procurement requests within a tight timeframe—a March 2026 RFQ for maintenance services on Hobo U26-001 data-logging units and a May 2026 RFQ for dissolved oxygen caps and temperature loggers (MX2203) for environmental monitoring. Glynn County, Georgia issued an RFP due July 1, 2026 for a multi-year bait provider contract at Blythe Island Regional Park Marina, with a non-mandatory pre-proposal conference scheduled for June 2, 2026 and a Q&A deadline of June 9, 2026.
