About UNSPSC 81151502
UNSPSC 81151502 Meteorological services is a Commodity code that encompasses automated weather observation and forecasting systems procured by state transportation departments and municipal governments to support operational decision-making, particularly for winter weather response and highway maintenance. State and local agencies under this code buy automated weather observation equipment, real-time weather intelligence platforms, electronic warning and alert systems for severe weather, and related meteorological data services. The Illinois Department of Transportation and Georgia Department of Transportation represent the state-level buyer concentration, while municipal park departments also engage weather-related infrastructure procurement under tangentially coded solicitations. Issuing bodies are predominantly state departments of transportation and, less frequently, municipal public-works and parks agencies.
Recent activity spans Illinois, Georgia, and Florida. The Georgia Department of Transportation posted an eRFQ on April 8, 2026 (response due May 4, 2026) for Automated Weather Observing System commodities to support GDOT operational needs, with technical specifications and evaluation criteria to be detailed in the full solicitation documents. The Illinois Department of Transportation issued a renewal notice on March 4, 2026 (submission deadline March 19, 2026) for a second one-year renewal of Enhanced Weather Forecasting Services (July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027), with incumbent vendor DTN, LLC selected for continuation at an annual cost of $254,022.22; the contract delivers electronic warning and alert systems for severe weather to maintenance forces across IDOT Districts 1 through 9 to enable snow and ice removal operations. A third opportunity posted by the City of DeBary, Florida (Bid 03-15, April 10, 2015 deadline) involved irrigation system conversion and is unrelated to the meteorological-services code scope, suggesting a mislabeling in the source data.
