UNSPSC 27113103: Fids

UNSPSC 27113103 Fids is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure flight information display systems and related electronic signage infrastructure for airports and transit facilities. Recent solicitations show that "Fids" in this context refers to digital display systems that convey real-time operational information—flight status, gate assignments, and baggage claim locations at airports. The code draws from airport authorities and municipal governments operating public transportation infrastructure. Issuing bodies under this code include municipal airports and city transportation departments seeking turnkey solutions that integrate hardware, software, cloud hosting, and ongoing technical support. Vendors typically must demonstrate prior experience deploying similar systems at commercial airports, provide system availability guarantees (such as 99.9% monthly uptime), and carry substantial liability coverage ($3 million general liability and professional liability per occurrence are common requirements).

Provo City Airport in Utah posted an RFP (PR2026001033) on July 16, 2026, requesting a complete FIDS solution supporting five current gates with expansion to ten gates by Summer 2029, including integration with baggage claim systems and potential Customs and Border Protection infrastructure; proposals were due August 11, 2026, with vendor selection anticipated August 19, 2026, and contract award August 24, 2026. A second opportunity from the City of Pembroke Pines, Florida (PSUT26QQ03), posted August 20, 2026, but appears misclassified under this code—it solicits a used tractor truck for sewer operations, not airport signage, and reflects a data-tagging error rather than representative activity. Recent activity under the code is limited; the Provo Airport FIDS procurement represents the primary decision signal for state and local market engagement.
