UNSPSC 93141801: Employment promotion or planning services

UNSPSC 93141801 Employment promotion or planning services (Commodity) encompasses job training, workforce development, employment placement, and related support services that state and local governments procure to help workers access employment and advance career outcomes. Recent solicitations show state agencies, counties, cities, and workforce development boards buying employment services for specific populations—welfare-to-work participants, refugees, individuals with disabilities, justice-involved individuals, and SNAP recipients—alongside occupational health screening, temporary staffing, and youth workforce programs. The issuing bodies span state departments of human services and disability services, county social services agencies, workforce development boards, school districts, and criminal justice agencies, with repeat activity from the District of Columbia Department of Disability Services, Colorado Department of Human Services, and multiple Texas agencies. Geographic spread is national, with recent solicitations posted from California, Nevada, Texas, Oregon, Colorado, Connecticut, South Dakota, New York, Ohio, Georgia, Rhode Island, and New Mexico.

Representative recent opportunities include the County of Orange, California Social Services Agency requesting proposals for CalWORKs Employment Services (Job Search and Job Readiness Assistance, Subsidized Employment, and Vocational Training) with an estimated value of $18 million over three years and proposals due October 13, 2026; the Oregon Department of Human Services seeking Refugee Employment and Pre-Employment Training Services for two regional areas (Portland-Metro and Salem-Corvallis-Eugene) with not-to-exceed values of $3,000,000 and $400,000 respectively and proposals due July 16, 2026; the State of Nevada Purchasing Division posting an RFQ for direct client services including job development services with rolling enrollment through May 2029; the Colorado Department of Human Services soliciting SNAP Employment and Training service providers with up to five contract awards anticipated and proposals due May 26, 2026; and the City of Santa Monica requesting nonprofit proposals for four-year human services grant agreements addressing community needs with proposals due December 14, 2026. The code also captures employment-related occupational health services (pre-employment physicals, fit-for-duty evaluations, OSHA screening) and temporary staffing for operations support, reflecting the breadth of employment support work state and local governments buy.
