UNSPSC 72151803: Vending machine installation and maintenance service

Service to provide and maintain vending machines including placement, replenishment and cash collection

UNSPSC 72151803 Vending machine installation and maintenance service is a Commodity code covering the full-cycle operation and servicing of beverage, snack, and specialty food vending machines across county facilities, municipal buildings, schools, state agencies, correctional institutions, airports, and universities. State and local governments procure this work as commission-based revenue-sharing arrangements, where contractors provide equipment, installation, restocking, maintenance, and repairs in exchange for a percentage of gross sales; they also solicit it as fixed-fee or facility-provided arrangements for maintenance and repair work alone. The issuing bodies span county governments (Orange County California, Collin County Texas, Clayton County Georgia, Galveston County Texas, Sussex County New Jersey), state agencies (Texas Workforce Commission, California Department of Rehabilitation, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Florida Department of Transportation, Illinois Department of Human Services), cities (Tucson, Olathe, Doral, Parker Colorado, Cincinnati, St. George Utah), school districts (Marion County Florida, St. Lucie Public Schools), correctional facilities (Georgia Department of Corrections locations), transit authorities (Broward County Transportation), and universities (University of Central Florida). Recent opportunities are heavily concentrated in Georgia—where the Department of Corrections has posted at least ten separate vending solicitations for individual prison and detention facilities since January 2026—with additional activity in California, Texas, Florida, Colorado, Arizona, New Jersey, and Ohio.

Representative recent opportunities include the Orange County, California IFB-017-3016702-JC posted July 8, 2026 for vending machines and services across 40 county locations with a five-year revenue-sharing contract (20–25% commission depending on sales volume), response due July 8, 2026; the Texas Workforce Commission RFP 3202600180 posted June 29, 2026 for beverage and snack vending across eight state agency locations in Texas with estimated annual contract values ranging from $5,773 to $451,309, responses due July 27, 2026; the University of Central Florida ITN for snack vending services across its campuses with approximately 100 machines, proposals due May 6, 2026, based on recent annual sales of $715,167; the City of Doral ITN 2026-11 for vending machine operation and management at ten municipal locations with a 70/30 vendor/city revenue split and three-year initial term, proposals due May 5, 2026; and the California Department of Rehabilitation IFB #S26-33345 for vending machine repair, relocation, and installation services in San Diego and Imperial Counties on a time-and-materials basis with estimated contract value of $225,000 over three years, bids due April 14, 2026. Commission percentages in active solicitations range from 10–27%; multi-location contracts typically run three to five years with renewal options, and service-level requirements commonly mandate response times of 24 to 48 hours for repairs and weekly to twice-weekly restocking. Opportunities are ongoing and concentrated in the second and third quarters of the year.
