UNSPSC 78112000: Intermodal passenger transport services

Passenger transport services spanning two or more modes of transport

UNSPSC 78112000 Intermodal passenger transport services is a Class code under which state and local governments procure transportation logistics for passengers moving between transit modes — buses, trains, shuttles, and related equipment and services. Recent opportunities show substantial mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity: the few records tagged to this code include irrigation system improvements, impact attenuators, transit shelters and amenities, field trip transportation, motor fuels, waste tire processing, motorcycles, audiovisual conferencing, towing and recovery, warehouse storage, miscellaneous supplies and parts, fitness equipment, boats, planning consulting, file cabinets, dry ice, emergency courier services, leachate hauling, and several other categories bearing no relationship to intermodal passenger transport. Of the opportunities present, only Broward County Transportation Department's RFP for transit shelters and amenities (TRN2133001B1, due October 23, 2026) and the District of Columbia's field trip transportation services solicitation (DOC850351, due October 13, 2026) align with the code's stated domain. The code shows little relevant recent activity and appears to be applied inconsistently or incorrectly across the procurement records reviewed.

The geographic spread of records nominally tagged to this code spans Florida, Nevada, Texas, Michigan, Illinois, Oregon, South Carolina, Georgia, and the District of Columbia, but geographic concentration cannot be meaningfully characterized given the fundamental mismatch between code scope and actual goods and services being solicited. Issuing bodies include state transportation departments, state health agencies, state natural resources departments, counties, cities, school districts, and independent purchasing cooperatives — a broad mix reflecting the code's apparent misuse across unrelated commodity families. Pursuing opportunities under this code requires verification that the specific solicitation actually involves intermodal passenger transport logistics rather than relying on the UNSPSC tag alone.
