UNSPSC 26121850: Multi core screened 60 volt automotive cable

A type of automotive cable screened with aluminum foil and or copper braid around each of the conductors in the cable and or around the entire cable to screen electromagnetic interference.

UNSPSC 26121850 Multi core screened 60 volt automotive cable is a Commodity code that encompasses structured cabling products and installation services for data and telecommunications infrastructure across state and local government facilities. While the code's nominal scope references automotive cable, recent state and local solicitations under this code are actually buying comprehensive cabling solutions spanning copper twisted-pair (Cat 6a), multi-strand fiber (OM3 and OM4), and related telecommunications infrastructure with full installation labor. State and local issuers procuring under this code include county governments and their administrative departments, with procurement structured as on-demand, per-foot pricing arrangements that cover materials and labor. Contracting bodies require vendors to meet baseline qualifications including three years of relevant experience, prior government implementations, Department of Industrial Relations registration, and compliance with TIA/EIA telecommunications standards.

The County of San Mateo in California posted RFP #ISD-20261906 on July 16, 2026, seeking structured cabling and installation services with a response deadline of December 8, 2025, and an estimated contract value of $300,000 to $1,000,000 over a 36-month initial term with two optional 12-month renewals. The RFP is two-phased, scoring organizational capacity and experience (30 points), method and approach (40 points), and price (30 points), with a non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting scheduled for November 17, 2025. San Mateo's local business preference ordinance provides additional evaluation points for local firms, non-profits, and small or micro businesses. Beyond the San Mateo opportunity, recent state and local activity under this code is limited; a Williamson County, Texas posting in July 2026 is an administrative relocation notice without procurement scope and does not constitute a viable opportunity. Geographic representation is sparse in the current data, with California as the primary identified jurisdiction showing active demand under this code.
