UNSPSC 80101511: Human resources consulting service

Service to provide consultation on HR related matters such as HR policy development, benefits, and employee hiring and termination

UNSPSC 80101511 Human resources consulting service is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure specialized HR advisory services spanning compensation analysis, organizational assessment, recruitment support, benefits administration, and labor relations guidance. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers conducting job classification and pay studies, establishing secondary employment management systems, seeking executive search partners, and engaging consultants for organizational restructuring and workforce planning—work that goes far beyond transactional HR administration into strategic workforce transformation and competitive positioning.

Solicitation activity spans multiple issuing-body types: county boards of commissioners (Whitfield County, Paulding County, Harris County, Butts County), municipal governments (Wichita, Green Cove Springs, Long Beach, College Park, Alexandria, Tucson), transit and public-service authorities (MetroLink Tulsa, Alameda County Water District), school districts (Fort Bend ISD, Beaverton School District), and special-purpose entities (housing authorities, workforce development boards, the Teacher Retirement System of Texas). The geographic spread is national, with recent activity concentrated in Texas (multiple solicitations), Georgia (Whitfield, Paulding, Fayetteville, College Park, Butts counties), California (Los Alamos, Long Beach, Alameda County), Florida, and Kansas. Representative recent opportunities include Whitfield County Board of Commissioners' RFP for a comprehensive Job Classification and Pay Study for approximately 800 employees across 200+ job classifications, due November 20, 2026; the City of Wichita's RFP #260237 for off-duty officer secondary employment management services—a web-based platform with geofencing and payroll integration—due January 8, 2027; the City of San Antonio Fire Department's RFP 27-003 for a 15-year staffing, fleet, and technology needs assessment, due November 9, 2026; and the City of Detroit Office of Contracting and Procurement's RFP 92126 for executive search services with placement-fee compensation, due October 5, 2026. Paulding County's employee benefits brokerage RFP (due November 13, 2026) and the Los Alamos County RFP26-71 for comprehensive employee benefits consulting (due October 15, 2026) exemplify the breadth of benefits and compensation expertise in current demand. The code sees steady activity across jurisdictions of all sizes, from small Florida municipalities to major transit authorities and state systems.
