The UN Staff and suppliers.
You need to have a supplier account on the UNGM. Once registered, they will need to match what they offer i.e. their products to the code list. To do this, suppliers need to conduct an in-depth search. They will initiate a database query by inputting the relevant keywords. The UNSPSC code lookup tool will present codes and the seller will choose the most detailed one. Save your code selection.
This is a paid service that allows sellers to receive email alerts when opportunities pertaining to the products or services they offer, arise.
Apply for an account at the UNGM, then search for codes using keywords that are relevant to your products or services.
Usually, a standard subscription costs USD 575, while a solution provider subscription costs USD 775. However, the UNGM may offer subsidized costs depending on how long you are subscribing to the service.
It presents a consistent structure for classifying products and services, making it easy for UN organizations to share accurate information. Additionally, sellers will be able to identify their merchandise fast and will have access to a wealth of procurement data.
