UNSPSC 91111702: Barter clubs or consortiums

UNSPSC 91111702 Barter clubs or consortiums is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to the state and local procurement activity tagged under it in recent solicitations. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code—bay door maintenance and repairs, commercial vehicle safety training, and municipal executive search services—fall into facility maintenance, occupational safety training, and professional recruitment respectively, none of which align with the nominal scope of barter exchange or consortium membership services. State and local procurement offices appear to be applying this code inconsistently or erroneously to unrelated service categories. The opportunities that do appear span different issuing bodies: Marion County, Florida's Facilities Management department; the City of Santa Monica; and the City of College Park, Georgia, representing a mix of county facilities management, municipal transportation and public safety, and municipal administrative recruitment.

The geographic spread across Florida, California, and Georgia reflects scattered activity with no regional concentration. Marion County's RFQ for bay door inspections, maintenance, and emergency repairs posted April 2, 2026, with responses due May 7, 2026, seeks unit-cost and hourly-rate pricing for work on 159 manual doors, 195 electric doors, 24 hurricane shutters, and 6 fire doors at county facilities, with a two-year contract term and two optional two-year renewals. The City of Santa Monica's RFP for commercial and specialty vehicle safety training, released November 13, 2025, with proposals due December 11, 2025, targets approximately 2,000 municipal employees across Public Works, transit maintenance, police, and fire services, structured around 120 annual training sessions with points-based evaluation across quality, cost, stability, project management, and technical competence. The City of College Park's RFP 26-37 for City Manager executive search services, posted January 28, 2026, with proposals due February 18, 2026, seeks nationwide candidate sourcing and vetting on a lump-sum cost basis evaluated across responsiveness, thoroughness, prior recruitments, personnel qualifications, schedule, references, and price on a 100-point scale. The code displays no actionable pattern of barter-related procurement activity; firms should verify code accuracy before pursuing opportunities tagged under this classification.
