UNSPSC 26121542: Installation wire

Wires used for installation purposes.

UNSPSC 26121542 Installation wire, a Commodity code, covers materials, labor, and installation services for data, video, voice, and power cabling infrastructure across state and local facilities. State and local governments procure under this code primarily for broadband connectivity expansion, network cabling upgrades, surveillance system integration, and facility-wide telecommunications infrastructure. The issuing bodies are diverse: state corrections and education departments, county utilities and courts, city water utilities, school districts, transit authorities, and special-purpose districts. Texas appears frequently as a procurement hub, with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Education Service Center Region 4, Texas Department of Information Resources, and Kissimmee Utility Authority all soliciting cabling and related services in recent months.

Recent activity spans structured network cabling (Cat 5e, 6, 7, fiber optic), video surveillance system installation, broadband infrastructure expansion across correctional and educational facilities, transmission line conductor wire, and comprehensive maintenance and support services. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice posted an RFP on October 10, 2026 (due November 9, 2026) for broadband connectivity and video surveillance systems across 80 TDCJ facilities statewide, requiring 24/7 technical support and mandatory use of Texas Certified Veteran Heroes United in Business (VetHUB) subcontractors at 3% participation. Texas Education Service Center Region 4 issued an IFB on October 9, 2026 (due November 9, 2026) for cabling and video surveillance installation across ESC 4 facilities and member school districts. The Texas Department of Information Resources opened a cooperative purchasing vehicle for cabling services and related products (COOP2026SOL-00008) on August 7, 2026 (due September 24, 2026) serving state agencies, local governments, and K-12 school districts; historical sales data showed $11.1 million through $12.0 million annually (FY 2023–2025). Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners solicited five-year low voltage cabling services on May 6, 2026 (due May 29, 2026) with an estimated total project value of $9.2 million. Georgia Department of Education, Northside Independent School District, and the University of Southern Mississippi represent additional recent activity in school systems and higher education. Geographic concentration is strongest in Texas and Florida, with secondary activity in California, Georgia, and Mississippi.
