UNSPSC 81111902: Online database information retrieval service

Service engaged in the creation, management, maintenance, or operation of online information retrieval systems or components

UNSPSC 81111902 Online database information retrieval service is a Commodity code that encompasses web-based platforms delivering structured access to specialized databases, digital subscriptions, and cloud-based information systems for state and local government operations—including case management platforms, health data repositories, library bibliographic systems, law enforcement telecommunications networks, tax research tools, and specialized compliance or regulatory databases. State and local governments are actively procuring these services across health departments, correctional agencies, libraries, courts, revenue offices, and transportation authorities to centralize data access, automate workflows, and meet statutory reporting or regulatory compliance obligations.

Recent procurement activity spans multiple issuing bodies and geographies. The New Jersey Department of Health is developing a web-based case management system for early intervention services supporting 45,000 active cases with simultaneous multi-user access and federal/state compliance reporting (RFQ due October 7, 2026). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission is procuring a cloud-based Video Directly Observed Therapy platform with mobile capability, HIPAA compliance, and integration with state identity systems (proposals due August 26, 2026). The Florida Department of Agriculture procured a single-source CVI Central subscription for veterinary certificate processing and animal health traceability (posted May 8, 2026). The Washington State Department of Health is transitioning from a legacy platform to the EPA Safe Drinking Water Information System with comprehensive data migration and ongoing hosting support (proposals due July 23, 2026 with $2,298,707 budget ceiling). The Florida Department of State libraries contracted with OCLC for bibliographic database access serving cataloging and resource sharing across 67 counties ($83,861.77 annual value). The Michigan Department of Treasury solicited online tax research subscriptions supporting 280 concurrent users with multi-state tax law coverage and training services (RFP due May 1, 2026). The Teacher Retirement System of Texas procured monthly mortality verification and address locator services via API for 525,000 annuitant records (RFP due March 27, 2026). Activity is concentrated in large, mission-critical state agencies—health, corrections, revenue, education, transportation—with secondary activity in county libraries and special-purpose districts. Recent solicitations show buyers prioritizing cloud deployment, API integration, regulatory compliance verification (SOC2, FedRAMP, HIPAA, WCAG accessibility), and multi-user scalability, with contracts typically structured as three- to six-year terms combining upfront implementation with recurring annual hosting, maintenance, and support services.
