UNSPSC 93121607: International cooperation services

UNSPSC 93121607 International cooperation services (Commodity) covers a broad range of consulting and advisory work that state and local governments buy to manage federal funding compliance, navigate complex regulatory environments, advance strategic initiatives at multiple government levels, and improve operational performance. Rather than traditional international development or trade promotion, the code in recent procurement activity spans grant administration, FEMA compliance, legislative advocacy, organizational strategy, financial management, and specialized technical assistance—work that helps jurisdictions access and steward state or federal resources and align operations with emerging priorities.

State and local issuing bodies across the code include cities (Phoenix, Detroit, Gallup, Temple, Ocala, Urbana, Douglasville, Fayetteville, McDonough, Wichita, Palo Alto, Wheat Ridge, Cooper City, Richardson), counties (Whitfield, Orange, Seminole, Los Angeles Superior Court, Pinellas, Boulder, Bernalillo, San Mateo, Kissimmee Utility Authority), state departments (Georgia DOT, Washington Commerce, California DAIS, Texas TSUS, Michigan DTMB, Illinois ISAC, Oregon State Fire Marshal), transit authorities (Orange County Transportation Authority), water districts (West Basin Municipal, Kissimmee Utility), colleges and universities (Rockland Community College, Washington Student Achievement Council), special districts (Atlanta BeltLine), and regional agencies (Alameda County Water District). Recent opportunities show significant activity in Georgia (Whitfield, Fayetteville, McDonough, Douglasville, Augusta), Florida (Holly Hill, Seminole, Orange County, Kissimmee, Cooper City, Pinellas), California (San Mateo, West Basin, Palo Alto, Cooper City equivalent), Washington, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include Whitfield County Board of Commissioners' RFP for a Job Classification and Pay Study covering 800 county employees and 200+ job classifications, with proposals due November 20, 2026; Georgia Department of Transportation's RFQ for Program Management Services supporting Transportation Alternatives Program and Local Administered Projects with SOQs due December 16, 2026; Washington State Department of Commerce's RFQ for up to three Capital Readiness Advisors to support early-stage capital projects for local governments, tribal governments, and nonprofits, with responses due November 16, 2026 and up to $25,000 per advisor; the City of Wheat Ridge's RFP for Zoning Code Consultant services funded by federal EPA Climate Pollution Reduction Grants with Phase 1 due February 2027 and Phase 2 through March 2028; Orange County Transportation Authority's RFP for FTA Compliance Review and Consulting Services over 29 months (January 2027–June 2029) with a firm-fixed budget of $245,000; and Pinellas County's RFP for an AI Strategic Roadmap and Governance Framework Consultant with a fixed-price budget of $250,000 and one optional six-month extension.
