UNSPSC 82141706: Mixed reality simulation service

Mixed reality (MR) is the merging of real and virtual worlds to produce new environments and visualizations where physical and digital objects co-exist and interact in real time

UNSPSC 82141706 Mixed reality simulation service, a Commodity code, encompasses VR and simulation-based training systems that state and local governments procure to build workforce capability across law enforcement, emergency response, and specialized operational domains. Recent opportunities show procurement bodies acquiring fully integrated VR training platforms with scenario libraries, instructor tools, assessment functionality, and multi-year technical support, rather than point solutions or consulting services alone.

Salt Lake City Corporation is the primary recent buyer under this code, soliciting a comprehensive Virtual Reality law enforcement training system through RFP SLCI27030 with a response deadline of November 11, 2026, funded at $322,770 through a combination of U.S. Department of Justice COPS Office FY25 Safer Outcomes grant and local project funds. The scope encompasses VR hardware and software, a library of scenario-based training content across twelve core law enforcement competencies (de-escalation, crisis intervention, judgment and decision-making, alternatives to use of force, tactical decision-making, firearms and less-lethal decision-making, and community interactions), instructor training, user documentation, and five-year warranty with ongoing technical support. Salt Lake City retains all work product and intellectual property; the contractor may retain copies for reference and marketing. Technical evaluation accounts for 70 percent of scoring, with cost at 30 percent; proposals must achieve a minimum 70 percent technical score to advance to cost evaluation. The contract term is five years, non-exclusive, with either party able to terminate with 30 days' notice. Geographic activity is concentrated in the Mountain West and Southeast; beyond Salt Lake City's October 2026 solicitation, the recent-opportunities block shows no other state or local VR simulation training procurements, indicating that this code sees limited but material activity among specialized municipal and state training programs.
