UNSPSC 86101804: Commercial sector manpower development

UNSPSC 86101804 Commercial sector manpower development (Commodity) covers customized workforce training and professional development delivered to state and local agencies—spanning occupational safety, health and wellness coaching, emergency response, leadership development, literacy and special education support, and sector-specific job preparation. State and local governments procure this code across state departments (Illinois State Board of Education, Michigan DHHS, Oregon Department of Education, Texas State Library), counties (Los Angeles, Hillsborough, San Bernardino, Seminole), cities (Detroit, Phoenix, Orlando, Dallas, Atlanta), school districts (Katy ISD, Dallas ISD, Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD), transit and utility authorities, and special-purpose districts. Recent solicitations reflect heavy concentration in safety training—fall protection, excavation trenching, electrical safety, first aid/CPR/AED, LOBO energy control, respiratory protection, and aircraft rescue firefighting—alongside leadership and management development, early literacy coaching, and specialized certifications. Los Angeles County Public Works alone has posted multiple safety training RFPs this cycle (May through July 2026), signaling sustained demand for competency-based occupational training across municipal operations.

Activity clusters in California and Texas, with significant recent postings in Michigan, Illinois, Florida, Georgia, Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona. Illinois State Board of Education's IFB 26-586SBE-CHFED-B-53245 (posted July 14, 2026, due August 10) seeks complaint investigator training for special education staff, an SBE set-aside with $375,000 estimated value over three years and FERPA/data security requirements; Events DC's RFQ 25-S-054 (posted July 10, due July 27) targets First Aid/CPR/AED for 60 security officers as a DSLBD local-business set-aside; Los Angeles County Public Works issued six separate RFPs in May–July for fall protection, lockout/blockout safety, low/high voltage electrical safety, and excavation trenching training, all due between May 15 and July 27; and San Bernardino County OES's RFP OES126OESAD6395 (posted June 1, due June 26) procures three-year emergency management exercise program development using best-value evaluation with 5% local-vendor preference. Michigan DHHS issued a public health leadership development RFP for five distinct training topics (adaptive leadership, psychological safety, health equity, transformative leadership, senior coaching) with multiple-award structure, and the Oregon Department of Education's RFQ S5810000017037 (posted May 28, due July 31) established approved provider lists for early literacy professional learning and high-dosage tutoring across districts statewide. Sole-source and federal-set-aside activity is present—Illinois DHS pursued sole-source Crisis Prevention Institute training for nine mental health facilities (FY27 value $278,852.80), and several school district procurements carry federal Title funding (Head Start, Special Education Grants to States). RFP structures vary from flat-rate per-session pricing to hourly consultation rates, fixed-price training packages, and cost-reimbursement models, with contract terms typically one to three years plus renewal options.
