UNSPSC 31201518: Electrically conductive tape

UNSPSC 31201518 Electrically conductive tape, a Commodity code, covers specialized adhesive tapes used in electrical and electronic applications where electromagnetic shielding, grounding, or conductivity is required—though recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code show little direct demand for electrically conductive tape itself. Instead, the code appears in solicitations that bundle electrical supplies and components broadly; the most recent activity reflects demand for general electrical parts, low-voltage systems integration, maintenance and repair services, and infrastructure upgrades rather than tape-specific procurement. State and local issuing bodies—school districts, county facilities departments, municipal governments, transit and airport authorities, and cooperative purchasing consortia—are soliciting under this code across a mix of as-needed service contracts, catalog supply agreements, and fixed-term maintenance arrangements. The City Colleges of Chicago, for example, posted an Electrical Low Voltage Job Order Contract (JOC) in September 2026 with a $5 million cap covering IT/AV systems, security access control, and CCTV installation and maintenance across district facilities; Pinellas County School District solicited electrical maintenance and repair services in October 2026 with an estimated contract value of approximately $400,000 and a mandate for 24/7 emergency response; and DeKalb County, Georgia and the Town of Berlin, Connecticut both posted on-call electrical services ITBs and RFPs, respectively, for repair and installation work on municipal properties.

Geographic activity centers in Florida, Georgia, Texas, Illinois, and Connecticut, with a regional purchasing cooperative (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, based in Texas) offering a two-year electrical supplies catalog discount contract with estimated expenditures of $4.85 million. Notable repeat buyers include school districts and county governments; Pinellas County School District and Northside Independent School District in Texas both actively solicit electrical goods and services. The Greater Orlando Aviation Authority also solicited design services for airport electrical infrastructure upgrades in August 2026, a $20–25 million project with construction anticipated to begin in 2026. The code's recent posting activity—with response dates spanning May through November 2026—signals steady demand for electrical maintenance, parts, and systems work across public facilities, though the actual procurement focus diverges significantly from conductive tape and runs instead toward labor-intensive services, bulk component supply, and infrastructure design-build delivery.
