About UNSPSC 78140000
UNSPSC 78140000 Transport services is a Family code that spans the purchase of physical movement and logistics services state and local governments procure—from student transportation and paratransit operations to specialized shuttle services, tow-and-wrecker response, and vehicle fleet support. Recent state and local opportunities under this code include school district RFPs for outplaced and extended-day student transportation, regional transit authority contracts for ADA paratransit operations and farebox systems, specialized vehicle services like on-demand shuttle fleets, and municipal emergency-response logistics. Issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (New Haven Public Schools, Westport Public Schools, Acton-Boxborough Regional School District, New Castle County Vocational Technical School District) and transit authorities (Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, State of Connecticut Department of Transportation), with occasional city and county procurement offices managing emergency or specialized vehicle needs. The mix reflects the high volume of K–12 transportation demand nationwide.
Recent activity concentrates in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic (Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Delaware) and scattered Western and Southern jurisdictions. Representative current opportunities include Westport Public Schools' RFP 27-002 for outplaced student transportation (due July 16, 2026), the MBTA's RFP 88-26 for dedicated ADA paratransit service providers across the Boston metro serving approximately 1.9 million annual trips (proposals due August 19, 2026), the State of Connecticut Department of Transportation's RFP 37286 for statewide farebox upgrade deployment across fixed-route bus services (due September 16, 2026), the State of Utah Division of Purchasing's RFP MH26-11 for multiple tow-and-wrecker service contracts requiring 24/7 response and county-wide coverage (due July 3, 2026), and New Castle County Vocational Technical School District's shuttle van proposal for student daily transportation (due June 30, 2026). These opportunities reflect baseline recurrent spending in student transportation, ADA compliance and modernization of transit infrastructure, and emergency vehicle services. The code sees steady activity across the fiscal year without sharp seasonal concentration.
