UNSPSC 94131902: Endangered species protection associations

UNSPSC 94131902 Endangered species protection associations is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, covers animal welfare services—particularly shelter operations, veterinary care, rescue coordination, and humane animal population management—rather than endangered-species conservation in the traditional sense. State and local governments are actively procuring animal care and control services under this code, including veterinary medical services (routine and emergency care, spay and neuter procedures), shelter animal feeding and housing, trap-neuter-vaccinate-release (TNVR) programs, rescue partner coordination, and animal boarding. The issuing bodies span city animal care departments, county animal services divisions, independent school districts procuring K-9 veterinary support, and special-purpose animal control agencies. City governments appear as repeat buyers: San Antonio Animal Care Services has issued multiple concurrent RFAs and RFPs for vaccine clinics, spay and neuter services, rescue partnerships, and emergency veterinary care; Collier County Domestic Animal Services has solicited comprehensive veterinary services and TNVR operations; and city and county shelter operators across multiple states are seeking veterinary consulting, food supply, and behavioral management services.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas (San Antonio, Fort Worth, Wichita, Windcrest), Florida (Collier County, Hillsborough County, Pasco County), and scattered single opportunities in New Jersey, North Carolina, Arizona, Oregon, and Georgia. Representative recent solicitations include the City of San Antonio's Request for Applications for Community Vaccine & Microchip Clinics (Solicitation 26106, due August 25, 2026), offering $20 per animal served; San Antonio's RFP for Emergency Care Veterinary Services (RFP 26-063, due August 17, 2026, with a pre-submittal conference July 13, 2026); Collier County's Invitation to Negotiate for Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Release Program Services (ITN 26-8652, proposals due March 17, 2026, reimbursing $25.00 per healthy sterilized cat and tiered rates for other outcomes); and the City of Fort Worth's RFP for animal housing equipment (RFP 26-0179, due May 21, 2026, with a 30 percent small business participation goal). Insurance requirements are uniform across opportunities, typically $1 million commercial general liability; veterinary contractors must carry $500,000 to $1 million professional liability. Contract terms vary from single-year arrangements to three-year agreements with renewal options, and compensation models range from per-animal-served to per-shift to fixed monthly invoicing.
