UNSPSC 70121902: Range management

UNSPSC 70121902 Range management (Commodity) encompasses grazing management plans, rangeland monitoring frameworks, and habitat assessments that state and local governments procure to sustain wildlife habitat and agricultural land stewardship on public and managed properties. The work involves developing grazing strategies, calculating animal unit months, recommending grazing infrastructure, establishing monitoring protocols aligned with ecological objectives, and integrating spatial data tools such as the Rangeland Analysis Platform and NRCS soil mapping. Issuing bodies include state wildlife and natural resource departments and county governments managing agricultural and recreational properties.

Recent activity centers in the Pacific Northwest and mid-Atlantic regions. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife posted RFP S6350000017746 on August 17, 2026 for development of a comprehensive grazing management plan and habitat monitoring framework for the Minam River Wildlife Area (approximately 15,000 acres), with proposals due September 8, 2026 and qualifications requiring a Natural Resource master's or doctoral degree in rangeland ecology or wildlife biology, minimum three years of professional experience, and preferred Society for Range Management credentials. Montgomery County, Pennsylvania issued RFP 26-28 on April 27, 2026 for farming operations and management services at Norristown Farm Park covering 409.9 acres of cropland and hay land, with proposals due May 28, 2026 and emphasis on sustainable practices including rotational grazing, cover crops, and biological pest management. The code shows limited recent activity — a City of College Park RFI on municipal public works efficiency and a Columbus Consolidated Government RFP for irrigation installation and maintenance services appear tagged to this code but do not align with range management scope.
