UNSPSC 86101705: Clerical training

UNSPSC 86101705 Clerical training is a Commodity code representing administrative and office skills instruction for public-sector workforces. State and local governments soliciting under this code are acquiring diverse training services that span far beyond traditional clerical work — job readiness workshops, behavioral coaching, vocational rehabilitation services, commercial driver's licensing, youth workforce development, specialized healthcare education, and equipment-specific technical instruction. The issuing bodies are fragmented across school districts, workforce development boards, county human services agencies, community colleges, transit authorities, and state departments; Texas agencies (Texas Workforce Commission, Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD, Collin County Community College, Katy ISD) appear frequently in recent activity, alongside California districts (Stockton Unified, Katy ISD in Texas), Florida counties, Illinois state agencies, and specialized districts serving corrections and rehabilitation populations. Recent work being solicited spans job readiness and career coaching (Workforce Solutions Borderplex NextForce workshops, Atlanta Beltline Business Talent Access Program), vocational rehabilitation and independent living services (Texas Workforce Commission open-enrollment O&M and diabetes self-management education), commercial driver's license training (Collin County Community College five-year CDL contract, City of Palm Bay ELDT program, Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD), specialized healthcare training (Hillsborough County Board speech-language pathology staffing, San Mateo Medical Center e-learning course development), emergency services instruction (Detroit Fire Department ICS 300/400 and aircraft rescue firefighting, Illinois Toll Highway Authority fall protection and aerial lift), and justice-system programs (Pinal County inmate behavioral coaching, DYRS cosmetology and life skills training in DC, San Mateo County jail programs and services).

Activity is heaviest in Texas, California, and Florida, with emerging secondary activity in Illinois, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Colorado, and the District of Columbia. Representative recent solicitations include Stockton Unified School District (RFP 26-27-02, due August 4, 2026) for academic, extracurricular, and emotional support services for students in need; Texas Workforce Commission (open enrollment through November 24, 2026) for Orientation and Mobility services at $75.00 per hour; Collin County Community College District (RFP FY2026-RFP-057, due May 19, 2026) for five-year CDL training services beginning September 1, 2026; Katy Independent School District (RFP #2519YT, due August 3, 2026) for educational interpreting services; and the City of Palm Bay (ITB, due May 19, 2026) for a five-year Entry-Level Driver Training program with at least twice-annual offerings. Set-asides and preferences vary by jurisdiction — Texas agencies invoke HUB goals and prefer service-disabled veterans; California districts emphasize DBE, MBE, and local preferences; and Michigan and Florida jurisdictions employ local small-business equalization credits. Contract terms typically span one to five years with renewable periods contingent on performance and funding. No single dominant vendor pattern emerges; contracts are awarded to education firms, workforce intermediaries, community colleges, and specialized training providers on a competitive basis within each jurisdiction's procurement rules.
