UNSPSC 32111706: Crystal oscillators

UNSPSC 32111706 Crystal oscillators is a Commodity code covering electronic frequency-control components procured by state and local government for incorporation into equipment, systems, and devices. Recent solicitations show this code appearing in broader electronic equipment and parts contracts where crystal oscillators function as components within larger procurement scopes rather than standalone line items. State and local governments acquire these components primarily through school districts, counties, and cooperative purchasing entities that bundle oscillators with related electronic parts, repairs, and services. The typical buying pattern involves sealed bids or RFPs for electronic equipment inventories that include frequency-control and timing components among a wider range of parts and subassemblies.

Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas posted IFB2026118 on September 1, 2026 (due September 24, 2026) for electronic equipment, parts, repairs, rentals, and services, replacing an expiring contract and requiring all incumbent vendors to re-compete or lose future business opportunity. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 (due June 16, 2026) for law enforcement equipment on behalf of participating entities across Washington state and multiple jurisdictions nationwide; that procurement establishes a cooperative contracting vehicle available to thousands of governmental agencies, K-12 school districts, and public entities. The recent activity shows strongest presence in Texas and the Pacific Northwest, with school districts and multi-jurisdictional cooperatives as primary issuing bodies. Vendors pursuing this code should expect to bid crystal oscillators as components within larger electronic parts bundles rather than as discrete line items.
