UNSPSC 81111706: Network planning services

UNSPSC 81111706 Network planning services is a Commodity code that captures state and local government procurement for network infrastructure design, analysis, and strategic planning services that inform technology deployments. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers using this code to source hybrid cloud infrastructure planning, water-treatment facility SCADA modernization design, municipal fiber network operations center support, airport network upgrades, and integrated emergency-response system architecture—spanning strategic advisory work through detailed technical integration planning that precedes or accompanies implementation contracts.

State departments, counties, cities, and special-purpose districts solicit network planning services across multiple jurisdictions with no dominant repeat buyer evident in recent postings. The geographic spread reflects activity across California, Nevada, Florida, Georgia, Texas, Washington, Oregon, Illinois, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and Arizona, with no concentration in a single region. Representative recent opportunities include the State of California's procurement for Armada Atlas Platform and Starlink hardware integration (RFB-IS-27200015, due July 24, 2026, including security architecture and deployment planning across state locations); the City of Atlanta Department of Aviation's pre-advertisement for hybrid private cloud modernization with disaster recovery deployment across two on-premises data centers (PE66062NONST2026000000376, due July 30, 2026, requiring enterprise hybrid cloud architecture and VMware-based virtualization expertise); the Washington Military Department's RFP for a statewide Computer Aided Dispatch to CAD interoperability platform connecting locally owned systems across five jurisdictions (RFP26-012, due July 30, 2026, requiring hub-based architecture design and NIEM/APCO/NENA standards compliance); and the City of Atlanta's competitive solicitation for SCADA improvements at two water treatment plants involving modernization of control systems and network conversion from ControlNet to Ethernet/IP (PE66062NONST2026000000374, PE66062NONST2026000000374, due May 29, 2026, requiring five years of comparable end-to-end integration project experience and ControlLogix PLC expertise). The code shows sustained activity in cloud infrastructure planning, mission-critical system modernization, and emergency-response platform architecture design, with response deadlines concentrated in the second and third quarters of 2026.
