UNSPSC 81141600: Supply chain management

UNSPSC 81141600 Supply chain management is a Class code that encompasses warehouse operations, inventory management, material sourcing, and logistics services for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) stock. State and local governments procure this capability to manage centralized supply systems that support facility operations, fleet maintenance, emergency response, and public health services. Recent solicitations reflect a mix of on-call service contracts with performance standards tied to delivery speed and inventory availability, business operations consulting to assess efficiency of existing supply chains, and full-service warehouse partnerships that integrate material purchasing, stock control, and logistics into a single third-party operation. Issuing bodies span state departments (transportation, health and human services), municipal governments (cities), and higher-education institutions, with work performed at specific operational sites including warehouses, maintenance facilities, and distributed municipal properties.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Illinois, with additional solicitations from Texas and Florida. Representative opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's dual-contractor RFP for on-call irrigation installation and maintenance services (RFP No. 27-0010, due September 30, 2026), the University of Central Florida's ITN for a warehouse operations business partner managing a 35,000-square-foot MRO stock room with performance standards requiring one-hour delivery for stock items (ITN 2025-16MCDA, due July 24, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for climate-controlled durable medical equipment warehouse storage and deployment services in the Austin area (IFB HHS0017028, due April 29, 2026, with contract start July 1, 2026), and the City of College Park's RFI for consulting support on public works operational efficiency and organizational assessment (RFI, due August 7, 2026).
