UNSPSC 70122005: Animal health preventive medication services

UNSPSC 70122005 Animal health preventive medication services is a Commodity code. State and local governments purchase preventive animal health services under this code through municipal animal shelters and control agencies, including rabies vaccination clinics, routine preventive vaccines (DHPP for dogs, FVRCP for cats), microchip implantation, spay and neuter procedures, wellness examinations, and trapneuter-vaccinate-release (TNVR) programs for feral cats. Recent solicitations show shelter and animal control departments contracting for both on-site clinical services performed at shelter facilities and off-site community vaccination events. The City of San Antonio's Animal Care Services Department is a standout repeat buyer, posting multiple opportunities in July 2026 for community vaccine and microchip clinics, spay and neuter contract veterinarians, emergency veterinary care services, and rescue organization partnerships. Cities and counties procure these services to manage animal populations, prevent disease transmission, and support adoption and animal welfare programs, often offering services to residents at no cost while compensating contractors on a per-animal basis.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Florida. The City of San Antonio issued three solicitations in July 2026: a vaccine and microchip clinic RFA due August 25, 2026 at $20 per qualifying animal served; a spay and neuter contract veterinarian RFA due August 25, 2026 at $1,300 per shift plus travel stipends; and an emergency veterinary care RFP due August 17, 2026 with a pre-submittal conference July 13, 2026. Collier County (Florida) issued an ITN for comprehensive veterinary services due February 4, 2025, with evaluation criteria weighted toward WBE/MBE certification and local-vendor preference. Bergen County (New Jersey) sought proposals for canine behavior management services due August 7, 2026. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Animal Care & Control (North Carolina) solicited a shelter food supply contract due June 24, 2026 for approximately 12,000 animals annually. The City of Wichita issued an RFP for veterinary consulting services due June 5, 2026 with a 10-point SEBE set-aside. Wider activity spans animal rescue contracts, trap-neuter-vaccinate-release programs, and K-9 unit veterinary care across municipal and county jurisdictions, with response dates clustering between May and August 2026.
