UNSPSC 32131010: Bare printed circuit boards

UNSPSC 32131010 Bare printed circuit boards is a Commodity code representing custom and standard printed circuit boards that state and local governments procure for electronic equipment repair, replacement, and system maintenance across schools, universities, and utilities. The code captures both bare boards and integrated circuit board assemblies used in control systems, diagnostic equipment, and specialized electronic infrastructure. State and local buyers under this code include school districts, public universities, transit and utility authorities, and cooperative purchasing consortia serving multi-jurisdictional public entities. Northside Independent School District in San Antonio routinely solicits electronic parts including circuit boards through IFB notices; the University of Wisconsin-Madison procures custom application-specific boards for specialized research and operational systems; and Lubbock Power & Light acquires circuit board components embedded in outdoor electrical control equipment for substation infrastructure.

Recent activity spans Texas, Wisconsin, and multi-state cooperative frameworks. The University of Wisconsin-Madison issued RFB 2027-UWMSN-01396 for APxF Rev K3 Custom Printed Circuit Boards with a bid due date of July 20, 2026. Northside Independent School District posted IFB2026118 for electronic equipment, parts, repairs, rentals, and services (due September 24, 2026), with the district requiring all current vendors to respond to the new solicitation or lose future business; this IFB replaced an expiring contract set to terminate November 30, 2026. Sourcewell, a State of Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued RFP #061626 for law enforcement equipment with participation from counties across Washington state and public entities nationwide (due June 16, 2026). Geographic concentration appears modest across recent opportunities, with visible activity in the Upper Midwest and South, though no single state dominates the sample.
