UNSPSC 39101614: Metal halide lamp HID

UNSPSC 39101614 Metal halide lamp HID (Commodity) covers replacement lighting equipment for industrial and municipal infrastructure, though recent state and local solicitations show the category acquiring predominantly LED floodlights and general LED lighting supplies rather than traditional metal halide technology. State and local buyers under this code span county port authorities, school districts, and city departments managing facility maintenance and equipment replacement. Broward County Port Everglades Department solicited 281 Phoenix LED floodlights (277–480 Volt) for Ship-to-Shore Cranes in an open-end supply contract (IFB BLD2132882B1, due September 25, 2026), with eight competing vendors and total bids ranging from $697,850.59 to $889,475.52. Parkway School District sought LED lighting on an as-needed basis with estimated annual spending of approximately $35,000 over a twelve-month term beginning September 26, 2026 (IFB 275, due July 30, 2026). The City of Tucson's procurement for mercury waste recycling (RFP 230060) included collection and disposal of spent High Pressure Sodium and Low Pressure Sodium lamps alongside compact fluorescent lamps, indicating that some jurisdictions consolidate spent lighting inventory under hazardous-waste recycling contracts rather than procurement-based replacement cycles.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida, Texas, and Arizona. Broward County and Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas) are repeat buyers under adjacent electrical-equipment and supply codes in mid-2026. The Illinois ALPLM cooperative purchasing vehicle posted an LED bulbs solicitation (26506ALPLMALPLMB52751, due June 11, 2026) with minimal scope detail available. A Sourcewell cooperative procurement for law enforcement equipment (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026) does not directly align with this commodity code and appears to reflect a classification mismatch. Local-vendor preferences apply in Broward County under Code Section 1-74, and SBE/CBE procurement preferences were specified for the Port Everglades contract. Most recent opportunities carry one-year terms with renewal options; price increases during renewals are tied to CPI or PPI where permitted.
