UNSPSC 39101803: Lamp base

UNSPSC 39101803 Lamp base (Commodity) shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes physical lamp-base components — the mounting structure or socket assembly for lamps — but the recent opportunities block returns nineteen records spanning electrical contracting services, theater lighting system installations, holiday decorations, ballasts and capacitors, and airfield lighting fixtures. These solicitations are either substantially broader in scope (complete lighting system design-build or retrofit work) or address component categories that fall outside the lamp-base taxonomy. The single entry plausibly aligned with fixture procurement — Gwinnett County's annual contract for ballasts and capacitors — focuses on ballast and capacitor units, not lamp bases themselves. No state or local jurisdiction has posted a recent opportunity explicitly requesting lamp-base purchase or supply.

The mismatch suggests either a classification artifact in how agencies tag their lighting-related procurements, or that lamp-base supply operates primarily through broader electrical equipment or fixture contracts rather than as a standalone commodity request. School districts, county procurement offices, and municipal departments active in the dataset (Gwinnett County Board of Education, Pinellas County School District, Bulloch County Schools, City of Douglasville, Lee County Port Authority, and the State of Illinois Department of Corrections) are currently soliciting lighting services, complete fixtures, or related components—but not lamp bases as a discrete line item. If your firm supplies lamp bases as a component of larger lighting assemblies or fixtures, position the offering within those broader system-integration and renovation RFPs. Standalone lamp-base opportunities in state and local procurement do not surface in recent activity.
