UNSPSC 81101502: Technical drawing

UNSPSC 81101502 Technical drawing—a Commodity code—encompasses architectural and engineering design deliverables, construction documents, and technical specifications that state and local governments procure to advance capital projects from planning through construction completion. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying preliminary and final design services, bid-phase support, construction administration, and work-product ownership transfers for infrastructure, facilities, and utility projects. The issuing bodies span city public works departments, county transportation and utilities authorities, regional water suppliers, state facility commissions, housing authorities, and special-purpose districts. Cities like American Fork and Salt Lake City, counties like Glynn and Summit, and authorities like Tampa Bay Water and Broward County Transportation appear as repeat buyers seeking design firms to document project scopes and guide construction execution.

The geographic spread includes activity across the Mountain West (Utah, Arizona), Southeast (Georgia, Florida), and scattered Western and Midwestern jurisdictions. Representative current opportunities include Salt Lake City's FY 26/27 Water Line Replacements (RFQ due October 28, 2026, for preliminary and final engineering design and construction administration), American Fork City's Main Street Waterline Replacement Design (RFP #WA2026005, proposals due September 1, 2026, for surveying, design, and construction management of a 3,000-linear-foot waterline), the City of Pittsburgh's New Schenley Park Division Facility design (RFP 2026RFP157, proposals due September 7, 2026), Glynn County Georgia's Public Safety Building Space Needs Assessment and Renovations (RFP27-009, proposals due November 12, 2026), and Tampa Bay Water's Brandon Urban Dispersed Wells PFAS Treatment consulting services (RFP 2027001, proposals due June 24, 2026, for design and permitting of ion exchange treatment systems). The Texas Facilities Commission's RFQ for restroom and breakroom renovations at the William P. Clements State Office Building (qualifications due July 23, 2026) carries a mandatory HUB Subcontracting Plan requirement and estimated construction cost of approximately $14 million. Most contracts require professional liability insurance ranging from $1 million to $2 million per claim, specify work-for-hire intellectual property transfer, and establish time-and-materials or fixed-fee compensation; several reserve termination rights for convenience with advance notice.
