UNSPSC 78112000: Intermodal passenger transport services

Passenger transport services spanning two or more modes of transport

UNSPSC 78112000 Intermodal passenger transport services, a Class code, encompasses door-to-door and curb-to-curb paratransit, vanpool operations, and specialized transportation for disadvantaged and mobility-limited populations that state and local governments are actively procuring. Recent solicitations show issuing bodies acquiring comprehensive paratransit management, emergency transportation coordination, employee vanpool subsidy administration, and equipment towing and recovery services for fleet operations. Issuing bodies span county governments (Monroe County, Florida; Pinellas County, Florida; Pinal County, Arizona), school districts (Pinellas County Schools), transit authorities (Orange County Transportation Authority), and state agencies (Illinois Department of Public Health, Texas Health and Human Services Commission). A standout recurring buyer is the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, which has posted multiple transportation-related solicitations, including resident transportation at state supported living centers and emergency courier services for vaccine and medical supply distribution. The code also captures specialized transportation for non-passenger freight—vehicle recovery and towing services, equipment relocation, and emergency logistics—reflecting a broad scope that extends beyond traditional passenger mobility into goods movement supporting public operations.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, and the broader South and Southwest, with recent opportunities posted from Monroe County and Pinellas County in Florida; Pinal County in Arizona; the City of San Antonio for dockless vehicle operations; the Texas Department of Public Safety for vehicle transport (Austin); and the Illinois Department of Public Health for emergency vaccine courier services. Representative recent opportunities include Monroe County's RFP 638 for Social Services Transportation Disadvantaged Program paratransit services (sealed proposals due July 21, 2026), Pinellas County School District's sealed bid for 24/7 towing and recovery services (bids due July 29, 2026), Texas Department of Public Safety's IFB 405-26R0023390 for vehicle transport services from Austin headquarters to Georgetown operations (bids due July 31, 2026 with subcontracting and VetHUB set-asides required), and Pinal County Air Quality Control District's RFP for Vanpool Operations and Management Services covering four active vanpools (proposals due June 24, 2026). Contract values range from approximately $70,000 annually (Pinellas school towing) to $667,927 in year-to-date awards (Texas Facilities Commission freight transportation), with initial terms typically one to three years and optional annual renewals.
