UNSPSC 93161700: Tax administration

UNSPSC 93161700 Tax administration is a Class code covering tax compliance, audit, and filing services that state and local governments procure to support revenue collection, assessment accuracy, and regulatory reporting. The work ranges from business personal property audits and tax lien processing to comprehensive 1099 and ACA form management, financial audits of tax operations, and specialized consulting on assessment methodologies and cost-recovery models. Counties, cities, and specialized authorities solicit these services to supplement internal tax staff, ensure federal and state filing deadlines are met, and manage high-volume form processing and compliance verification.

Recent activity clusters across four core service areas: 1099 and ACA compliance form processing (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued two separate RFPs for approximately 3,000 annual 1099 forms with responses due October 2 and September 18, 2026; Washington Convention and Sports Authority sought ACA compliance services for up to 500 employees with RFQ responses due October 2, 2026); tax audit services (Wake County requested business personal property and gross receipts audit proposals with deadline September 17, 2026; Fulton County solicited delinquent tax sales preparation services including title examinations with proposals due June 11, 2026); financial auditing (Boulder County Office of Financial Management requested comprehensive county financial audits for fiscal years 2026–2030 with September 25, 2026 deadline; Boulder County Housing Authority sought HUD-program audit expertise with August 13, 2026 deadline); and specialized assessment consulting (City of Oviedo requested fire assessment consulting to determine cost-recovery revenue requirements with October 27, 2026 deadline). Geographic spread includes Georgia (Gwinnett County, Fulton County), North Carolina (Wake County), Colorado (Boulder County), Florida (City of Oviedo), Connecticut (City of Stamford), New Jersey (City of Newark), and the District of Columbia, with secondary activity in Washington State and Rhode Island. Evaluation criteria consistently weight experience and technical qualifications heavily (30–60 points), with cost proposals accounting for 10–20 points on most solicitations; professional liability insurance ($1–$2 million per claim) and cybersecurity compliance are standard requirements across all opportunity types.
