UNSPSC 95141705: Guardhouse

Locations used to house guards that were pre-constructed at one location and erected at another location

UNSPSC 95141705 Guardhouse is a Commodity code that encompasses prefabricated shelter structures, modular buildings, and portable facilities procured by state and local government entities for operational, storage, and support purposes. Recent state and local solicitations show government agencies purchasing prefabricated metal buildings, modular structures, equipment shelters, and pre-engineered shelter systems for a wide range of applications including equipment storage, maintenance facilities, temporary housing, monitoring stations, and specialized operational buildings. The code spans both one-time facility acquisitions and lease-with-installation arrangements, with work ranging from simple delivery and placement to full site preparation, foundation work, and utility integration. Issuing bodies using this code include county boards of commissioners, city public works and utilities departments, transit authorities, fire rescue services, state environmental agencies, school districts, and specialized operational facilities like medical centers and correctional institutions. Repeat buyers include Florida counties (Collier, Marion, Orange, Indian River, Hillsborough, Pinellas, DeSoto, Volusia, Lee), Texas agencies (TxDOT, Texas A&M AgriLife, City of Cibolo), Georgia municipalities (Bibb County Schools, Sandy Springs, Lee County, Thunderbolt), and California's Santa Clara County across multiple seismic compliance and healthcare facility projects.

Recent solicitation activity concentrates in Florida, Texas, Georgia, and California, with secondary activity in Colorado, Kentucky, South Carolina, and Arizona. Representative opportunities include the City of DeSoto, Florida issuing an ITB for Rob Sullivan Park Maintenance Barn—a 25' x 40' x 14' A-frame steel building with delivery and installation due May 12, 2015 at $16,000 estimated cost; the Texas Department of Transportation requesting bids for a fabric salt shed at Sierra Blanca Maintenance Facility with responses due December 2, 2026; Pinellas County, Florida rebidding four prefabricated ambient air quality monitoring equipment shelters with 100-amp electrical service and HVAC systems under an EPA Inflation Reduction Act grant, responses due October 8, 2026; the Commonwealth of Kentucky requesting a mobile air quality monitoring equipment shelter measuring 14' x 8' x 8' with commercial-grade electrical and HVAC systems, bids due September 28, 2026; and Flagler County, Florida soliciting construction of two new hurricane-resilient buildings at the County Fairgrounds, bids due September 1, 2026. The activity reflects sustained demand for portable, modular, and prefabricated structures across operational, environmental monitoring, public safety, and facility-hardening use cases, with federal funding (EPA grants, FEMA HMGP, ARPA) increasingly driving procurement in the category.
