UNSPSC 78142218: Airport environmental impact studies

Studies of primary environmental issues associated with the operation of airports such as GHG emissions, noise pollution, land utilization, waste, and congestion.

UNSPSC 78142218 Airport environmental impact studies is a Commodity code that encompasses environmental assessment work and specialized consulting services supporting airport infrastructure and operational projects. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show governments actually buying airport master planning, environmental consulting, design and construction management services, and technical feasibility studies that support capital improvement programs and FAA funding compliance—services broader than the code name alone might suggest. State and local airport authorities—including city departments of aviation, county aviation departments, regional airport authorities, and independent airport authorities—are the primary issuing bodies. The County of Sacramento Department of Airports, City of Atlanta Department of Aviation, Broward County Aviation Department, Heart of Georgia Regional Airport Authority, and Greater Orlando Aviation Authority represent repeat or standout buyers soliciting planning, consulting, and construction management services in recent months.

Representative recent opportunities illustrate the scope: Sacramento International Airport seeks a construction manager at risk through an SOQ for taxiway pavement rehabilitation (due July 30, 2026, RFQ format); the Heart of Georgia Regional Airport Authority seeks aviation consulting for airport master planning and environmental work (due May 4, 2026, RFQ format with five-year master agreement); Broward County solicits design and construction management services for two county-sponsored airports (due April 16, 2026, SOQ format); and Monroe County, Florida issues RFQs for general consultant services (RFQ626, due April 22, 2026) and financial consultant services (RFQ625, due April 23, 2026) for Key West and Marathon airports. Geographic concentration appears in the Southeast (Georgia, Florida) and West (California, Arizona, Texas), with activity distributed across regional and general-aviation reliever airports as well as major commercial hubs. Most solicitations are qualifications-based selections (RFQ or SOQ format) followed by negotiation, reflecting FAA Advisory Circular 150/5100-14E procurement guidelines for consulting services.
