UNSPSC 77101800: Environmental auditing

UNSPSC 77101800 Environmental auditing is a Class code. State and local governments procure auditing services across environmental compliance, remediation operations, facility assessments, and specialized environmental reviews—work that spans water quality testing, stormwater program monitoring, PREA institutional compliance, contract performance evaluation of environmental contracts, and environmental support coordination for transportation projects. The code captures both traditional financial and compliance audits of entities with environmental missions and technical environmental compliance verification work. Issuing bodies include county sheriffs' offices (procurement for detention facility food service auditing), state transportation departments (NEPA and environmental law compliance), cities and counties (water testing, waste management audits, facility audits), school districts, and state environmental agencies. Tuolumne County, California, appears as a repeat buyer across multiple stewardship and fuels reduction programs requiring environmental and operational oversight. Recent opportunities show the code is applied broadly—sometimes to work plainly unrelated to environmental auditing itself, such as food commissary services (Tuolumne County RFP20250134, July 2026) and forest fuels reduction contracting (Tuolumne County RFP20250129, June 2026), suggesting the code may be tagged inconsistently by some issuing bodies despite its narrow audit focus.

Geographic activity concentrates in California (Tuolumne County, County of Santa Clara, City of Tucson, City of Phoenix, Los Angeles County), Florida (City of Tampa, City of Casselberry, City of Ocala, Monroe County), Georgia (GDOT, City of Americus, Ware County), and the Carolinas (Auburn University procurements on behalf of federal installations). State and local bodies soliciting genuine environmental audit work include the City of Tampa (ITB 26P00197 for McKay Bay WTE facility quality audits and CO2 sampling, May 2026), the City of Ocala (ITB ITBWRS260618 for environmental water testing–contract lab, May 2026), the South Dakota Department of Transportation (RFP 26RFP19846 for NEPA Assignment support and procedures development, July 2026), and the Georgia Department of Transportation (RFQ PE48401RFQ2026000000601 for environmental support across NEPA, air quality, cultural resources, and ecology contracts, July 2026). Auburn University has issued multiple environmental compliance and restoration RFPs on behalf of Army installations, including remedial action operations support at Aberdeen Proving Ground (RFP AU20260000952, March 2026). No specific high-dollar incumbent or dominant contractor patterns emerge from the recent opportunities. Activity is moderate and dispersed across jurisdictions and agency types, with no clear set-aside or preference patterns dominating the code's procurement pipeline.
