UNSPSC 72151608: Satellite system maintenance or repair service

Service to perform maintenance or repair of satellite systems and related equipment

UNSPSC 72151608 Satellite system maintenance or repair service is a Commodity code that state and local procurement shows little recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The three recent opportunities tagged under this code—an environmental and historic preservation review RFQ from Tuolumne County, a Motorola radios and accessories RFQ from Santa Clara County, and a Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) wireless and satellite services indefinite-quantity contract—represent environmental consulting, radio equipment procurement, and broadband telecommunications infrastructure, none of which constitute satellite system maintenance or repair work. The environmental review project targets 415 properties in Tuolumne County's wildland urban interface for wildfire risk mitigation under a California state program; the Santa Clara County radio procurement is a straight equipment buy for the Sheriff's Office; and the Texas DIR contract aggregates cellular, wireless, pager, and satellite voice and data services across all state agencies as a multi-category, multiple-award vehicle with no minimum purchase guarantees. Issuing bodies in the recent record include county procurement offices and a state information-resources department, but the work tagged to the code does not match satellite maintenance or repair services.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans California, Texas, and the national footprint of the Texas state cooperative contract, but again, none of this activity represents the code's stated scope. The Tuolumne County RFQ closed October 14, 2023; the Santa Clara County RFQ closed June 17, 2026; and the Texas DIR contract response deadline is July 23, 2026, with award expected in October 2026. Unless state and local governments are using this code as a catch-all for telecommunications-adjacent work, the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent procurement signals that satellite system maintenance and repair work either falls under a different code or sees negligible activity in the state and local market tracked here.
