UNSPSC 78121602: Weighing services

UNSPSC 78121602 Weighing services (Commodity) sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with the code's core scope. The single on-point opportunity in the dataset is the Florida Department of Transportation's statewide weigh station scale maintenance services RFP (RFP15978 and the subsequent timeline update IN16288), which solicits preventative maintenance, system upgrades, and repair services for Weigh-in-Motion, Virtual Weigh-in-Motion, and Static Scale Systems across 50+ locations statewide. Work includes equipment manufacturer-certified technician services, performance to National Institute of Standards and Technology Handbook 44 and ASTM E1318 standards, and unit pricing per maintenance visit with optional hourly charges for specialized services such as heavy duty test truck operation, repairs, and sensor installation. The remaining opportunities in the dataset—irrigation system improvements (City of DeBary), election equipment transportation (City of Detroit), charter bus services (Bibb County Schools), convention fulfillment (Visit St. Pete-Clearwater), and trails and sidewalks consulting (Columbus Consolidated Government)—are unrelated to weighing or scale maintenance and appear to have been tagged with this code in error.

The Florida Department of Transportation is the lone recent buyer actively soliciting weigh station scale maintenance on a statewide basis. The RFP required a five-year contract term with potential three-year renewal, a $2.5 million performance bond, and general liability insurance with minimum limits of $200,000 per person and $300,000 per occurrence. Technical proposals opened June 11, 2026 at 11:00 AM EST with price proposal opening and intended award posting on June 23, 2026; both deadlines have passed. Vendors must be registered in MyFloridaMarketplace, authorized to do business in Florida if out-of-state, E-Verify compliant, and must employ manufacturer-certified technicians. The code shows limited recent activity and appears underutilized for state and local scale maintenance procurement; opportunities in this category are sparse and geographically narrow to Florida at present.
