UNSPSC 80111619: Temporary creative services

UNSPSC 80111619 Temporary creative services, a Commodity code, encompasses recruitment, placement, and delivery of temporary personnel across administrative, professional, technical, skilled trade, and specialized service roles that state and local governments deploy to augment permanent staff for short-term, project-based, seasonal, and as-needed assignments. The code captures employment staffing services where third-party vendors source, screen, background-check, and place hourly or contract workers to fill operational gaps—not creative or design work despite the code name. State and local buyers use this code when they need quick-turnaround workforce augmentation for finance, IT, clerical, maintenance, facilities, grounds, janitorial, substitute teaching, healthcare support, event management, and specialized technical roles; they set wage rates and oversight, paying vendors a markup or fee structure per hour or per placement.

Issuing bodies span state departments (Colorado, Texas, Illinois), large cities (Phoenix, Tucson, San Antonio, Tampa, Tucson), counties (Ventura, Cuyahoga, Orange County, Collier County), school districts (Collin County Community College, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Ocean Springs School District, City Colleges of Chicago), regional transit and special-purpose districts (Urban Flood Safety & Water Quality District in Portland), and university systems (Texas Tech University, University of Texas M.D. Anderson, Texas State University, City Colleges of Chicago). A strong pattern of repeat activity centers in Texas (multiple state agencies, cities, transit authorities, and universities), with secondary concentration in Florida, Colorado, and California. The code shows substantial volume across administrative and labor-focused placements, with school districts and state workforce systems emerging as standout repeat buyers. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Department of Agriculture pesticide disposal event staffing (RFP 5510000952, due Aug 17, 2026), the State of Colorado statewide temporary staffing across five geographic regions and 15+ job classifications (RFP-SPCO-26-BS01, due May 7, 2026), the City of Tucson temporary employment services for general clerical, IT, and finance roles (RFP 260222, due May 22, 2026), and NASPO ValuePoint cooperative purchasing for multi-state temporary employment services (RFP 60-00000-26-00092, due Aug 11, 2026). Geographic spread is nationwide with deepest activity in Texas, followed by Florida, Colorado, California, and scattered multi-state cooperative vehicles; most recent opportunities posted between mid-April and late July 2026, reflecting summer and fall staffing cycle demand.
