UNSPSC 81111703: Electronic data interchange EDI design

UNSPSC 81111703 Electronic data interchange EDI design, a Commodity code, describes the design, configuration, and implementation of EDI systems that enable state and local governments to exchange transactional data with vendors, service providers, and internal systems. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reflect a narrower scope than the abstract name suggests: government agencies are primarily procuring EDI hosting and maintenance services, electronic transcript transmission platforms, electronic timekeeping and visit verification systems, and catalog-discount network supply management tools. State and local governments issuing under this code span state departments (Illinois Department of Human Services, Illinois Student Assistance Commission, State of Texas, Texas Department of Information Resources), school districts (Valencia College District, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Parkway School District, Katy Independent School District), counties (San Mateo County, Hillsborough County), cities (Charlotte, North Carolina; Atlanta; Flowery Branch, Georgia), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative appears as a repeat buyer, issuing multiple network systems and supplies catalog-discount bids serving Texas education and public entities.

Representative recent opportunities include the Illinois Department of Human Services Division of Rehabilitation Services' sole-source Electronic Visit Verification system procurement (due April 9, 2026) supporting 44,000 providers in a Medicaid Waiver Program at an estimated $3 million, and the Illinois Student Assistance Commission's emergency continuation of electronic transcript services through Parchment/Instructure Inc. (due May 28, 2026, $153,076.89 for 90 days) enabling high schools to transmit student transcripts to colleges. The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative issued a catalog-discount bid for Network Systems & Supplies (NET2628, due July 28, 2026) with estimated expenditures of $12.011 million over a two-year term. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas (Region 7 cooperative procurements, Texas DIR wireless and satellite services), Illinois (state department EVV systems, ISAC transcript services), and Florida (Valencia College classroom technology, Hillsborough County school district licensing). The code shows consistent activity in educational, health, and state administrative contexts where EDI and electronic data exchange underpin mission-critical financial, enrollment, and service-delivery workflows.
