UNSPSC 80141516: Non subscription market research service

Contract analyst time and effort, sale of event tickets, rights to research and other miscellaneous market research related engagements.

UNSPSC 80141516 Non subscription market research service (Commodity) encompasses research and data-analytics services that state and local governments procure to support operational intelligence, workforce development, visitor behavior analysis, and organizational planning — distinct from subscription-based intelligence platforms. Recent opportunities show state and local buyers purchasing market research through time-limited engagements focused on specific analytic deliverables: travel-market profiling, labor-pool assessment, tourism economic impact measurement, and organizational consultation rather than standing-access research subscriptions. San Mateo County Medical Center solicited live-agent outreach and patient-engagement services including SMS campaign execution and statistical reporting via RFP, while Atlanta Beltline Inc. sought program design and talent-pipeline services connecting residents to employment opportunities. The Teacher Retirement System of Texas issued an RFP for energy-sector research services including geologic and midstream infrastructure data delivery through a vendor portal. County governments, state agencies, and specialized authorities (transit, tourism, pension funds) drive procurement under this code; issuing bodies range from county human services divisions to transit authorities to state economic development offices. Geographic spread includes California, Texas, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, and Oregon in the recent activity block. The code's decision relevance is moderate: a commodity code naming research services produces heterogeneous opportunities spanning subscription-adjacent portal access, one-time studies, and discrete consulting deliverables, making vertical focus and rapid qualification response critical to capture awards before solicitation close.
