UNSPSC 32101605: Eraseable programmable read only memory EPROM

UNSPSC 32101605 Eraseable programmable read only memory EPROM is a Commodity code. Recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code do not reflect purchases of eraseable programmable read-only memory or related semiconductor components; instead, they span server hardware, network switches, Apple products, wireless services, and access-control encoders. The code shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and actual procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. State and local governments—including county boards, city governments, state departments, and purchasing cooperatives—continue to solicit IT hardware, networking equipment, and related services broadly, but the EPROM code itself does not capture this activity meaningfully. Issuing bodies range from individual counties (Gwinnett County, Georgia; Chatham County, Georgia; Bergen County, New Jersey) to state departments (Texas Department of Information Resources) and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas).

Recent representative opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' sealed-bid solicitation for file servers and peripheral equipment (HP ProLiant DL380 servers with memory, hard drives, USB flash drives, network cards, and scanners) with bids due October 29, 2026, and Chatham County Sheriff's Office's ITB 26-0114-6 for two Cisco Catalyst 9500 network switches and related hardware with a response date of October 20, 2026 and a 30 percent M/WBE participation goal. The Texas Department of Information Resources posted a request for offers on Apple products and related services with a response deadline of November 19, 2021, and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Kilgore, Texas solicited network systems and supplies through a catalog discount bid (NET2628) due July 28, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $12.011 million across a two-year term. The code's recent-opportunities block reflects activity concentrated in Texas and Georgia, with an outlier in New Jersey; however, the mismatch between the EPROM nomenclature and the hardware and services actually being procured signals that this code may not be the active or intended classification for state and local network and server procurement.
