UNSPSC 70122010: Animal health information services

UNSPSC 70122010 Animal health information services, a Commodity code, covers animal impoundment, boarding, kenneling, adoption services, veterinary care, rescue operations, and related animal welfare services that state and local governments procure to operate public and contract-managed animal shelters, control centers, and care facilities. Recent solicitations show municipal animal control departments, county animal services divisions, and city animal care agencies procuring core shelter operations including impound and kenneling services, veterinary care across routine and emergency settings, spay/neuter programs, behavioral management, vaccination and microchip clinics, and adoption services, alongside supporting supplies such as kennel equipment, pet carriers, and animal feed. The issuing-body mix spans cities (Phoenix, San Antonio, Fort Worth, McKinney, Wichita, Atlanta, Bend), counties (Yamhill, Collier, Gwinnett, Solano, Harris, Hillsborough, Charlotte-Mecklenburg), and county-level animal services departments, with repeat activity from San Antonio and county-level procurement offices across Florida, Texas, North Carolina, Oregon, and Arizona.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix's sealed-offer RFQ for animal boarding services supporting police and human services departments, due October 21, 2026, requiring three years' operational history and Maricopa County kennel permits, with evaluation weighted equally on contractor requirements, approach, and qualifications; the City of San Antonio's August 25, 2026 RFA for spay/neuter contract veterinarians ($1,300 per shift plus travel stipend for out-of-city providers), a rescue partner incentive program at $200 per animal pulled, and community vaccine/microchip clinics at $20 per qualifying animal served; Yamhill County Sheriff's Office's August 31, 2026 RFP for dog kenneling and adoption services operating in McMinnville, Oregon, structured on a flat annual rate plus percentage share of dog license revenue; the City of Fort Worth's May 21, 2026 RFP for animal housing equipment (kennel doors, group kennels, cat condos) with 30% small business participation goal; and Collier County's three-year ITN for comprehensive veterinary services with local-vendor and WBE/MBE evaluation preferences worth 15 points combined of 100. Geographic concentration appears highest in Florida, Texas, North Carolina, and the Pacific Northwest, with secondary activity across Arizona and New Jersey.
