UNSPSC 26121804: Single core 60 volt class c automotive cable

A single core 60 volt automotive cable that operates within the minus 40degree to plus 125 degree centigrade range.

UNSPSC 26121804 Single core 60 volt class c automotive cable is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, does not align with the actual procurement activity being tagged under it. The County of San Mateo's July 2026 RFP (RFPISD20261906) for Structured Cabling and Installation Services, the primary recent opportunity under this code, solicits comprehensive telecommunications cabling solutions — including copper UTP Cat 6a, multi-strand fiber (OM3 and OM4), and related installation services across county departments — rather than automotive cable products. The scope involves per-foot pricing for labor and materials, technical compliance validation, and delivery on an as-needed basis to both existing and new facilities. The mismatch between the Commodity code's automotive-cable designation and the actual telecommunications infrastructure work being procured suggests either a coding error in the state and local opportunity database or a fundamental disconnect between the code taxonomy and current market demand.

The County of San Mateo (a county purchasing office) is the sole issuing body with a substantive recent opportunity under this code. The RFP carries an estimated contract value of $300,000 to $1,000,000 with an initial 36-month term and two optional 12-month renewals, response deadline of December 8, 2025, and a non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting scheduled for November 17, 2025. The county requires three years of relevant experience, three successful government implementations within the last five years, SAM.gov registration, and compliance with TIA/EIA telecommunications standards. A local business preference ordinance applies, offering evaluation points for local, non-profit, and small or micro businesses. The second recent posting (Williamson County Purchasing Department relocation notice) contains no procurement scope and is not actionable. Given the code's automotive-cable definition and the absence of additional relevant opportunities, state and local demand under this specific Commodity code appears minimal or misaligned with the underlying product category.
