UNSPSC 81111704: Database design

UNSPSC 81111704 Database design is a Commodity-tier code covering the planning, architecture, configuration, migration, and implementation of database systems and supporting services that state and local governments procure to modernize legacy platforms, integrate disparate data sources, and enable new analytical or operational capabilities. Recent state and local solicitations under this code span utility network migrations, laboratory information management system maintenance, health care management systems, licensing platform replacements, and specialized domain databases for regulatory compliance, law enforcement, and public health operations. The kinds of issuing bodies pursuing database-design work include state agencies (Florida, Texas, Illinois, Nevada, Oregon), county authorities (San Mateo, Broward, Hillsborough, Placer, Gwinnett), municipal departments (City of Atlanta), and special-purpose authorities (Kissimmee Utility Authority, Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission). Repeat buyers are concentrated among state technology offices and health and human services departments; Texas agencies have posted multiple recent opportunities across public health laboratories, licensing systems, and court management platforms.

Geographic activity is centered in Texas, Florida, California, Illinois, and Nevada, reflecting a mix of large-population states and those with active IT modernization initiatives. Representative recent opportunities include Kissimmee Utility Authority's RFP 26-028-SH (posted October 2026, proposal deadline June 2026 now passed) for utility network migration and implementation services—a 3-year contract encompassing assessment, data conversion, system configuration, testing, staff training, and post-implementation support with a single prime contractor responsible for delivering ArcGIS Enterprise environments; San Mateo Medical Center's RFP 660002526251 (posted October 2026, due October 21) for diagnostic imaging PACS implementation requiring 9-12 month deployment, migration from a legacy ScImage system in place since 2009, EPIC EHR integration, and 5-year agreement; the Illinois Department of Natural Resources' sole-source coal mining e-permit (posted July 2026, due August 12); and the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy's RFO 457-26-0001 (posted June 2026, due June 12) for legacy IBM iSeries AS/400 replacement spanning six licensing and enforcement modules with COTS or SaaS preference and ten-year hosting through August 2036. The code shows consistent activity in Q2–Q3 2026 with no pending procurement dry spells, though many opportunities have passed response deadlines; firms should monitor state procurement portals and agency websites for post-award debriefs and upcoming re-compete cycles, particularly in states piloting cloud migration and enterprise system consolidation.
