UNSPSC 86121803: Technical professional schools

UNSPSC 86121803 Technical professional schools, a Commodity code, encompasses academic enrichment, tutoring, intervention, mentoring, and leadership development services delivered to K-12 students through state and local education agencies—services grounded in the recent solicitations showing schools purchasing direct student support across literacy, mathematics, social-emotional learning, and career readiness. State and local school districts dominate the buyer base: Stockton Unified, Dysart Unified, South Delta, Cypress-Fairbanks, Katy ISD, Bibb County, Pinellas County, Hillsborough County, Austin ISD, Tacoma Public Schools, Columbia County, and Elgin ISD all issued RFPs or RFQs in the past ninety days for tutoring, intervention services, enrichment programming, and special education contracted services. State education agencies including Texas Education Agency and Oregon Department of Education also solicited under or adjacent to this code for professional learning, literacy coaching, early intervention tools, and instructional materials review. A few opportunities diverge—Collin County Community College District sought commercial driver's license training, West Basin Municipal Water District sought tour guides and instructors for a water recycling facility education program, and Region One Education Service Center sought instructional technology and library services—signals that some recent postings tagged to this code do not align with K-12 student-focused technical education or professional schools.

Geographic spread is broad and heavily weighted to Texas, with active solicitations from Stockton (California), Dysart (Arizona), South Delta (Mississippi), Cypress-Fairbanks, Katy, Bibb County (Georgia), Pinellas and Hillsborough (Florida), and Austin and Elgin (Texas). Representative recent opportunities include Stockton Unified School District RFP 262702 for academic, extracurricular, and emotional support services for students in need, due August 4, 2026, emphasizing mentorship, enrichment, and college planning with evaluation weighted toward experience and qualifications (35 percent) and services offered (25 percent); Dysart Unified School District RFP 2700132 for community enrichment programs across multiple academic pathways including career and technical education and Advanced Placement, due July 30, 2026; and South Delta School District RFP 3170036167 for direct student intervention and academic improvement services in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science across three grade spans, due July 16, 2026. Texas Education Agency RFP 70126025 for the Texas Pathways Project, a statewide Career and Technical Education digital platform for grades 7–12, due July 13, 2026, requires vendor experience serving at least 5,000 K-12 students across 125 campuses and mandates a 5 percent HUB subcontracting goal with service-disabled veteran participation. Activity shows substantial demand for evidence-based student support services, particularly in Title I districts and among students requiring specialized interventions, with most contracts offering one-year initial terms and three to four renewal options.
