UNSPSC 86141603: Students travelling organizations

UNSPSC 86141603 Students travelling organizations (Commodity) encompasses out-of-school time enrichment programming, youth development services, and academic support activities delivered by external vendors and community partners to school districts and public education agencies. State and local governments procure instruction and facilitation across diverse program types—fine arts, STEM, career exploration, sports and fitness, language instruction, and specialized enrichment—typically organized as semester-long or year-round offerings serving elementary through high school students. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with independent school districts in Texas (Fort Bend, Austin, Cypress-Fairbanks, Dysart in Arizona), public school systems in Washington and Georgia (Tacoma, Cobb County), and municipal agencies such as the City of St. Petersburg also active. Texas school districts appear as repeat buyers across multiple concurrent solicitations. The work ranges from direct vendor-led classroom instruction held at school campuses to community-partner coordination models where districts convene nonprofit organizations and youth-serving businesses to support out-of-school-time programming; contracts typically require background-cleared instructors, curriculum documentation, parent communication, and revenue or cost-sharing arrangements with the district.

Activity concentrates in Texas (Fort Bend, Austin, Cypress-Fairbanks, Dysart), with secondary recent posting from Florida (St. Petersburg), Washington (Tacoma), Georgia (Cobb County), and Arizona. Fort Bend Independent School District's RFP 27-008LB (proposals due November 10, 2026) seeks vendors to deliver one-hour weekly enrichment classes across ten curriculum service areas—Academic Readiness, Arts, Computer Science, Culinary, Fine Arts, Foreign Language, Sports & Fitness, Dance, Music, and STEM—across 30 campuses, requiring itemized pricing per participant, a minimum 30 percent revenue share to the district, and instructor background clearances. Austin Independent School District's RFP 26RFP052 (proposals due May 19, 2026) and standing-vendor RFP 27RFP021 for fine arts instruction (due August 4, 2026) establish district-wide approved-vendor lists with five-year awards; vendors must submit completed applications and cannot provide services without prior award. Tacoma Public Schools issued an RFI on June 9, 2026 (responses due June 25, 2026) seeking nonprofit organizations, community-based organizations, and youth-serving businesses to partner on out-of-school-time programming. The City of St. Petersburg's Canvas to Career RFP (due October 23, 2025) targets visual and applied arts programming for high school students with estimated annual expenditure of approximately $50,000 and total two-year contract value around $100,000, emphasizing small-business and minority-owned business certifications in the evaluation framework.
