UNSPSC 80171908: Not for profit organization relations consultation and engagement

Public relations consultation services relating to managing stakeholder relations and engagement with charities and not for profit organizations

UNSPSC 80171908 Not for profit organization relations consultation and engagement, a Commodity code, encompasses legislative advocacy, governmental affairs counsel, community engagement program management, and strategic consultation services that state and local governments procure to navigate policy environments, build stakeholder relationships, and advance organizational priorities before legislative bodies and regulatory agencies. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include cities, counties, transit authorities, state agencies, regional planning organizations, and special-purpose districts. Recent activity shows strong demand from municipal governments for state-level lobbying representation, transit authorities for community outreach coordination, and state agencies for grant administration and strategic engagement support.

The code sees active procurement across multiple states and regions. The City of Rio Rancho, New Mexico posted an IFB for state lobbyist services due August 11, 2026, to advocate during the New Mexico legislative session; the City of Waco, Texas issued an RFQ for governmental affairs consultant services before the Texas Legislature and state agencies due June 23, 2026; and the Oregon Medical Board solicited public relations and governmental affairs services with a maximum not-to-exceed of $150,000 due July 27, 2026. Community engagement work appears in Orange County Transportation Authority's RFP for third-party facilitators (due August 25, 2026), Great Lakes Water Authority's request for member outreach program facilitators (due August 25, 2026), and multiple urban redevelopment and brownfield engagement procurements from Columbus Consolidated Government and City of Atlanta. Broward County Transportation Department, the California Film Commission, and Invest Atlanta have also posted opportunities for community engagement and stakeholder coordination roles. Geographic concentration is evident in Florida (Broward County, Orange County, Great Lakes Water Authority in Michigan), Georgia (Invest Atlanta, Columbus Consolidated Government, Macon-Bibb County, City of College Park), Texas (City of Waco, City of Apopka), and Pacific Northwest (Oregon Medical Board, City of Bend, State of Oregon agencies). The issuing-body mix spans municipalities (Rio Rancho, Waco, Apopka), counties (Henry County Georgia, Broward County, Pinellas County), regional transit authorities (OCTA, GLWA, Broward County Transportation, JTA/North Florida TPO), state agencies (Oregon Treasury, Oregon Medical Board, Washington Department of Commerce, California Film Commission, GO-SERVE), and special-purpose districts (Invest Atlanta, Downtown Development Authorities).
