UNSPSC 70122004: Foot or mouth control services

UNSPSC 70122004 Foot or mouth control services is a Commodity code covering animal impoundment, boarding, kenneling, and adoption services, along with supporting veterinary, behavioral, and supply-chain work that state and local animal welfare agencies procure to operate shelters, control facilities, and community animal programs. Cities, counties, and special-purpose animal services divisions are the primary soliciting bodies, with recent opportunities spanning municipal animal care departments in Phoenix, San Antonio, Atlanta, and Fort Worth; county sheriff offices and animal services divisions in Yamhill County (Oregon), Collier County (Florida), Gwinnett County (Georgia), and Solano County (California); and independent school districts purchasing supplies in support of animal care curricula. The City of San Antonio Animal Care Services stands out as a repeat buyer, posting multiple concurrent opportunities for spay and neuter contract veterinarians, rescue partner incentive programs, community vaccine and microchip clinics, and emergency veterinary care services between June and July 2026. The scope of work includes full-service animal care facility operations (intake assessment, vaccination, microchipping, spay and neuter procedures, adoption coordination, and euthanasia protocols), specialized services such as trap-neuter-return programs and canine behavior management, boarding and boarding-adjacent services (daycare, overnight care, group play, medication administration), animal housing equipment and supplies (kennels, cat condos, dog beds, cardboard carriers), veterinary consulting and emergency care, shelter food supply, and administrative systems integration.

Recent opportunities cluster in the Southwest (Texas, Arizona) and Southeast (Florida, Georgia, North Carolina), with secondary activity in the Pacific Northwest (Oregon) and Mid-Atlantic (New Jersey). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix's RFQ for animal boarding services (sealed offers due October 21, 2026, supporting Police and Human Services Departments on a five-year firm term with DBE-N reporting requirements); the City of San Antonio's concurrent applications for spay and neuter veterinarians ($1,300 per shift compensation) and rescue partner incentive program funding ($200 per animal pulled from shelter); Yamhill County Sheriff's Office RFP for dog kenneling and adoption services (due August 31, 2026, covering facility operations, intake, vaccination, adoption, and euthanasia with pricing structured as flat annual rate plus percentage of dog license revenue); Collier County Board of Commissioners' ITN for comprehensive veterinary services to the Domestic Animal Services Center (proposals due February 4, 2025, three-year term with two one-year renewal options, weighted evaluation including local-vendor preference and MBE/WBE certification at 10 and 5 points respectively); Charlotte-Mecklenburg Animal Care & Control's shelter food supply program (due June 24, 2026, supporting approximately 12,000 animals annually across two facilities); and the City of Fort Worth's RFP for animal housing equipment including kennel doors, group housing kennels, and cat condos (due May 21, 2026, with 30% small business participation goal for Tarrant County and surrounding counties). Contract structures vary from monthly or per-occurrence compensation (San Antonio vaccine clinics at $20 per animal, rescue contracts at $200 per animal) to fixed annual rates with CPI adjustment provisions, and vendor requirements consistently include professional liability insurance ($500,000 to $1,000,000 minimums), background screening, and compliance with state veterinary licensing or shelter operational standards.
