UNSPSC 94131903: Threatened animals protection associations

UNSPSC 94131903 Threatened animals protection associations (Commodity) captures animal shelter operations, veterinary care, boarding, rescue services, and related supplies that state and local governments procure to support municipal and county animal welfare functions. Recent activity shows governments purchasing spay/neuter and emergency veterinary services, kennel and boarding facilities, animal food and supplies, rescue partner placements, behavior management programs, and vaccine/microchip clinics—spanning both contracted service delivery and direct procurement of equipment and materials. The issuing-body mix is diverse: municipal animal care departments (San Antonio, Wichita, Phoenix, Fort Worth, Atlanta), county animal services divisions (Collier, Yamhill, Gwinnett, Harris, Solano), municipal police departments' animal control units (Wichita), county sheriffs' offices (Yamhill), and independent shelter boards (Bergen County). Cities and counties solicit under this code at comparable frequency; San Antonio and Collier County appear multiple times across recent postings, indicating sustained animal welfare spending in those jurisdictions.

Geographic activity spans multiple regions with concentration in Texas (San Antonio, Wichita, Fort Worth, McKinney, Harris County) and Florida (Hillsborough, Collier, Pasco), alongside postings from Oregon (Yamhill, Bend), New Jersey (Bergen County), Georgia (Tift County, Atlanta), North Carolina (Charlotte-Mecklenburg), and California (Solano). Representative recent opportunities include the City of San Antonio's RFA for spay/neuter contract veterinarians (applications due August 25, 2026), the City of Phoenix's RFQ for animal boarding services with a five-year firm term and a pre-offer conference scheduled for September 29, 2026 (sealed offers due October 21, 2026), Yamhill County Sheriff's Office's RFP for dog kenneling and adoption services (proposals due August 31, 2026, with a revenue-share pricing model tied to dog licensing fees), the City of Fort Worth's RFP for animal housing equipment including kennels and cat condos (proposals due May 21, 2026), and Charlotte-Mecklenburg Animal Care & Control's solicitation for a Shelter Food Supply Program supporting approximately 12,000 animals annually (proposals due June 24, 2026). Collier County issued an ITN for comprehensive veterinary services supporting the Domestic Animal Services Center with a three-year term and two one-year renewal options, incorporating local-vendor preference and WBE/MBE scoring weighted at 10 and 5 points respectively.
