UNSPSC 78142219: Airport maps, networks studies

A geographic information system (GIS) is a system that creates, manages, analyzes, and maps all types of data. GIS connects data to a map, integrating location data (where things are) with all types of descriptive information.

UNSPSC 78142219 Airport maps, networks studies is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure professional services for airport planning, consulting, and infrastructure studies; however, the recent opportunities tied to this code show minimal alignment with its nominal scope—the bulk of recent activity under this tag involves airport operations, ground transportation, security, and facilities management work that falls outside traditional mapping and network study services.

The issuing bodies soliciting under or near this code span county aviation departments (Sacramento County, Broward County, Collier County), municipal airport authorities (Peachtree City Airport Authority, Greater Orlando Aviation Authority, City of Lubbock, City of Phoenix, City of Brownsville), and regional airport authorities (Heart of Georgia Regional Airport Authority). Recent opportunities show repeated activity from Atlanta Department of Aviation, Broward County Aviation Department, and City of Lubbock, suggesting these are active procurement offices. Geographic distribution is broad, with recent solicitations posted from California, Florida, Georgia, Texas, Arizona, and other states. Representative recent opportunities include Sacramento County Department of Airports' Request for Qualifications for Construction Manager at Risk Services on Taxiway A, A3, and A13 Pavement Rehabilitation Project, due July 30, 2026 (RFQ); City of Atlanta Department of Aviation's Pre-Advertisement Notice for IT Infrastructure Support Systems Maintenance Services at HJAIA, questions due July 31, 2026 (prequalification-phase IFB); Collier County Board of County Commissioners' sealed bid solicitation for Security Enhancements & Emergency Generator at Immokalee Airport, due July 31, 2026 (ITB); and City of Phoenix's Request for Sealed Proposals for a Passenger Flow Management Solution and Services at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, due July 30, 2026, spanning seven years. The code shows active procurement volume but demonstrates significant category-mismatch risk—the UNSPSC tag 78142219 appears to capture airport infrastructure work broadly rather than mapping and network studies specifically, warranting verification of scope alignment before pursuit.
