UNSPSC 95121900: Educational and research buildings and structures

Buildings or structures used for educational or research services

UNSPSC 95121900 Educational and research buildings and structures, a Class code, encompasses design and construction services for school buildings, academic facilities, and campus infrastructure improvements. State and local governments acquire work ranging from modest renovations and single-trade improvements at individual schools to comprehensive campus modernization, HVAC and roofing replacements, security vestibule additions, interior finishes and systems upgrades, and large-scale construction management at risk (CMAR) delivery for new academic buildings and student-facing facilities. Issuing bodies span independent school districts (rural, suburban, and large urban systems), county school boards, state technical college systems, charter schools, universities, and community college districts. School districts dominate the recent activity, with construction management at risk emerging as the preferred delivery method for phased or complex projects exceeding $1 million. Georgia and Florida show the heaviest concentration of recent solicitations, followed by Michigan, Massachusetts, Texas, and California. Georgia—particularly through its State Financing and Investment Commission on behalf of the Technical College System of Georgia, and independent districts such as Savannah-Chatham, Wayne County, Muscogee County, Gwinnett, DeKalb, Carroll County, and Effingham County—accounts for roughly one-third of the recent pipeline.

Representative recent opportunities include the Gwinnett Technical College North Fulton Campus Expansion (TCSG-441-CM, Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission, RFQ/RFP, October 29, 2026 qualifications deadline, $28.7 million preliminary stated cost limitation for design and construction of approximately 45,500 to 57,500 square feet of instructional facilities); Stoneview Elementary School Modernization (DeKalb County Schools, RFQu, November 5, 2026, $30 million stated cost of limitation for security vestibule, media center addition, new classrooms, fire sprinkler, HVAC replacement, roof and electrical systems, kitchen renovation, and finishes); Wayne County School District's New Athletic Facilities and Board of Education Central Office (CM at Risk RFP, November 12, 2026, $35 million total project budget); and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's on-call small-construction prequalification (RFQ C27-07, November 19, 2026) and Oglethorpe Charter School Security Vestibule (sealed bid, November 19, 2026). Smaller school district projects, such as auditorium seating and flooring work at multiple Cobb County middle schools and HVAC or roofing modifications at elementary schools across Georgia and beyond, post in parallel. Activity is active through November 2026 and into early 2027, with pre-bid conferences and mandatory site visits commonly required.
