UNSPSC 93141808: Occupational health or safety services

UNSPSC 93141808 Occupational health or safety services (Commodity) encompasses training, medical monitoring, safety assessments, and industrial hygiene support delivered to state and local government workforces, emergency responders, correctional staff, and transit personnel. State and local procurement offices under this code purchase respiratory protection evaluations, hazardous materials response training, occupational medical exams, behavioral health assessments, defensive driving instruction, emergency management curricula, scaffold competency courses, aircraft rescue firefighting training, and incident command education. The code draws solicitations from state departments (Michigan DTMB, California CDCR, Illinois State Police, Colorado State Patrol), county governments (Seminole County Florida, Harris County Texas, Cuyahoga County Ohio, Montgomery County Pennsylvania), cities (Detroit, Hartford, Albuquerque, Orlando), school districts (Cherokee County Georgia), and specialized authorities (Texas A&M System, California DTSC, New Jersey Transit Rail, Orlando Utilities Commission). Work is performed both as master agreements with indefinite quantities and recurring service contracts, with contract terms ranging from one to five years and vendor pools spanning single-source awards to competitive RFPs.

Recent activity concentrates in the South and Midwest. Texas A&M System issued RFP-01-ESS-26-252 (due July 30, 2026) for an internet-based Environmental Health and Safety Records Management System serving 175,000 students across 12 universities and related institutions, with a 2% VetHUB subcontracting goal for contracts over $100,000 and a three-year initial term with two optional two-year extensions. California CDCR posted a master agreement for statewide occupational medical services including respiratory protection, lead and asbestos surveillance, hearing conservation, and commercial driver exams (bid June 12, 2026, capped at $30 million over three years), with 25% small business participation mandate and 5% small business preference. Michigan's DTMB recommended award of RFP 26*1604 for Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety Training to MTA Education Center Inc. for $9.75 million over five years with three optional one-year renewals. Harris County (Texas) issued ITB 260043 for Defensive Driving Training Classes with in-person and asynchronous online delivery (due May 4, 2026), requiring NSC-certified instructors and a minimum wage of $21.65 per hour. Cherokee County Schools (Georgia) solicited Student Support Contracted Services for special education staffing including speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, and school psychologists across a 36-month term (due June 2, 2026). Additional recent solicitations include Detroit Fire Department ARFF training (RFQ 545387, due March 27, 2026), Cuyahoga County scaffold training (due April 2, 2026), Montgomery County Pennsylvania emergency management training for five-county regional task force (RFP 26-33, due June 12, 2026, $110,000 budget), California DTSC occupational biomedical monitoring across five regional areas (IFB I-2526-02, due May 29, 2026, estimated $128,000–$757,000 per region over three years with 5% small business preference), and Hartford Connecticut occupational health and behavioral health assessment services for municipal employees and police (both due May 15, 2026). Orlando Utilities Commission issued RFP 9174 for occupational safety training, industrial hygiene, and radiation compliance (due May 27, 2026, three-year term with two one-year renewals). Activity reflects strong demand for training delivery (classroom, online, simulator-based, hands-on), medical surveillance contracting, and compliance support across public safety, corrections, utilities, transit, and education sectors, with most buyers emphasizing ADA accessibility, insurance minimums of $1–2 million general liability, and E-Verify or equivalent employment verification.
