UNSPSC 32141001: Cathode ray tubes

UNSPSC 32141001 Cathode ray tubes is a Commodity code representing electronic display components and related equipment procurement by state and local jurisdictions. Recent activity under this code shows state and local governments buying electronic equipment, parts, repairs, rentals, and services—a broader category than cathode ray tubes alone suggests. The solicitations indicate the code is being used as a catch-all designation for general electronics procurement rather than for cathode ray tube-specific sourcing, reflecting the shift away from CRT technology in modern equipment inventories. Issuing bodies include school districts and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple jurisdictions and public entities across regions.

Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas posted IFB 2026118 on September 1, 2026 for electronic equipment, parts, repairs, rentals, and services, with proposals due September 24, 2026—a replacement contract requiring current vendors to resubmit or lose future business opportunity. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued RFP 061626 on May 12, 2026 (due June 16, 2026) for law enforcement equipment on behalf of participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, with the resulting contract available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and public entities throughout the United States and Canada. The geographic spread spans Texas and the Pacific Northwest, with the Sourcewell vehicle extending reach nationally and into Canada. The recent opportunities frame this code as a general electronics procurement category rather than specialized CRT sourcing.
