UNSPSC 78181904: Rotary wing aircraft standing charges

Standing charges a fixed amount of money that you pay for being provided with a service of rotary wing aircraft charges.

UNSPSC 78181904 Rotary wing aircraft standing charges is a Commodity code capturing aircraft platform acquisition, mission equipment integration, and specialized airframe support services for state and local law enforcement and public safety operations. State procurement offices are soliciting under this code for complete mission-ready aircraft solutions — including airframe purchase, mission-critical equipment installation, FAA approvals, integration labor, training, and warranty support — rather than standing charges alone. The South Dakota Highway Patrol's RFP 26RFP19842 exemplifies the scope: the agency seeks proposals for Kodiak 100 Series III aircraft with integrated law enforcement mission equipment for traffic enforcement, criminal interdiction, search and rescue, disaster response, wildland fire reconnaissance, and homeland security. Vendors may propose aircraft acquisition only, equipment installation only, or a fully integrated turnkey solution, with cost proposals itemized by major components including aircraft purchase, delivery, mission equipment, installation labor, FAA approvals, engineering, testing, training, and warranty support. State highway patrols and public safety agencies appear to be the primary issuing bodies under this code.

The code shows activity concentrated in the Upper Midwest and South. The South Dakota Highway Patrol posted RFP 26RFP19842 on July 9, 2026, with proposals due July 20, 2026. A second opportunity from Okaloosa County, Florida (ITB ITBAP3026, posted March 18, 2026, due February 25, 2026) involved aircraft boarding ramps rather than rotary wing aircraft and is not directly aligned with the code's nominal scope. The South Dakota solicitation remains the primary recent activity signal under this Commodity code for state and local buyers.
