UNSPSC 85111506: Bacterial disease prevention or control services

In this classification, this commodity indicates the activities required to prevent or control bacterial diseases

UNSPSC 85111506 Bacterial disease prevention or control services is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure mosquito control, occupational health and medical surveillance, and clinical laboratory services that align with public health disease prevention mandates. The City of Arlington, Texas exemplifies the core scope: it is soliciting an annual requirements contract for mosquito control services (RFP 270015, due October 22, 2026) that encompasses mosquito surveillance, trap catch, complaint-based larviciding, targeted adulticide application, reporting, and record keeping, with contractors required to comply with American Mosquito Control Association, CDC, EPA, and state health department guidelines. The issuing bodies under this code include city governments, county health departments, state agencies, and specialized public health districts. Beyond mosquito control, the code captures occupational health and medical surveillance services, as demonstrated by the Oregon State Police RFQ for exposure control plan development, bloodborne and airborne pathogen training, vaccination, medical examinations, and post-exposure management (RFQ S2570000017070, due July 3, 2026, with a not-to-exceed of $250,000 through May 30, 2032). Related clinical laboratory services supporting disease surveillance also fall under this code, such as the Harris Center for Mental Health and IDD's procurement of agency-wide clinical laboratory services with routine and specialized testing across Houston-area facilities (RFP FY260273, due June 17, 2026).

Recent activity spans Texas, California, and Oregon. The City of Arlington's mosquito control contract represents direct vector disease prevention in a major Texas municipality. Oregon State Police occupational health procurement reflects state-level disease exposure prevention and employee wellness. The County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing vehicle (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishes a qualified vendor pool across multiple clinical categories, though this opportunity is tangentially related to the code's scope. Solano County's Community Health Improvement Plan implementation grant (948060524) and Bernalillo County's opioid settlement grant process fall outside the core bacterial disease prevention mandate of this code. The code shows modest but focused recent activity concentrated in direct vector control and occupational health surveillance; opportunities are concentrated among municipal health departments and state agencies rather than distributed across a broad issuing-body base.
