UNSPSC 78100000: Mail and cargo transport

UNSPSC 78100000 Mail and cargo transport, a Family code, encompasses fulfillment services, visitor assistance coordination, grant and program administration support, and related logistics work that state and local governments procure to support tourism marketing, healthcare and social services delivery, community development programs, and facility operations. Recent solicitations span a wide range of operational support activities that extend well beyond traditional mail and parcel handling—from tourism fulfillment and visitor services at the State of Utah to healthcare administration support at Harris County, cultural and recreational venue operations at Phoenix Sky Harbor and other municipal parks departments, and grant administration services at counties across Texas and beyond. The code captures service contracts where logistics, fulfillment, or administrative coordination are the primary deliverable, often paired with data management, customer service, or program compliance responsibilities.

Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state departments and divisions (Utah Division of Purchasing conducting on behalf of state tourism and economic development offices), county public health and community development departments (Harris County Public Health Services, Galveston County), municipal recreation and aviation departments (City of Phoenix Parks and Recreation, City of Phoenix Aviation), transit authorities (CityBus/Greater Lafayette Public Transportation), special-purpose districts (MLK Corridor Improvement Authority in Jackson, Michigan), and independent authorities (Santa Clara County Central Fire Protection District, West Basin Municipal Water District). Recent activity shows repeat procurement across multiple jurisdictions for grant administration services, particularly in Texas (Galveston County issued two separate RFPs for CDBG and mitigation program grant administration in September–October 2026), and for venue, facility, and program operations management across the Southwest and Florida. The State of Utah RFP for fulfillment and visitor services (GN27104, due November 6, 2026) and the City of Phoenix RFP for volunteer and guest services management at Sky Harbor Airport (RFP260367, due December 2, 2026) represent representative opportunities in the fulfillment and visitor services category; the County of San Mateo procurement for grants management system implementation (2027RFP00144, due October 30, 2026) and the City of St. Petersburg loan portfolio management RFP (RFP26283, due September 1, 2026) illustrate program administration and financial management work. Geographic concentration spans Utah, Texas, Florida, California, Michigan, Colorado, Ohio, and New Mexico, with notable activity in California counties (San Mateo, Santa Clara, Sacramento) and Florida municipalities and special districts.
