UNSPSC 83111701: Facsimile transmission services

UNSPSC 83111701 Facsimile transmission services is a Commodity code covering secure fax service delivery to state and local organizations, spanning both standalone eFax platforms and fax capabilities integrated into broader hosted voice and telecommunications infrastructure. Recent state and local solicitations show demand for cloud-based and hosted fax services, secure transmission capabilities meeting healthcare compliance requirements, and fax infrastructure as part of comprehensive voice-and-fax system procurements. Issuing bodies include higher-education institutions (University of Oregon), state procurement offices (State of Illinois), school districts (Clayton County Public Schools in Georgia), and community colleges (Valencia College District in Florida). The code captures both point solutions—dedicated eFax or secure fax services—and fax as a component within larger telecommunications and conferencing technology contracts.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Florida, Illinois, and Oregon. The University of Oregon Purchasing and Contracting Services posted solicitation S58050100017012 on May 21, 2026 (due June 5, 2026) seeking an Alternate Communication Provider contract for secure fax service to University Health Services. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office posted small-purchase solicitation 26551HDAINFOTB52510 on May 13, 2026 (same-day deadline) for Consensus eFax services, with $1,000 threshold triggering a mandatory $15 minority contractor initiative fee. Clayton County Public Schools issued RFP 005-26 on February 11, 2026 (due March 18, 2026) for hosted voice and fax services serving 67 schools and over 50,000 students, with pricing for vendor-provided or district-supplied equipment, a one-year initial term with four optional one-year renewals, and a mandatory Small Local Business Enterprise compliance requirement. These procurements signal ongoing demand across educational and public-sector sectors, with emphasis on cloud-based delivery, compliance certifications (E911, HIPAA where applicable), and integration with existing telecommunications infrastructure.
