UNSPSC 39111508: Track lighting

UNSPSC 39111508 Track lighting, a Commodity code, encompasses the installation, maintenance, and renovation of track and theatrical lighting systems across school auditoriums, performing arts centers, multipurpose facilities, and municipal recreation spaces. State and local governments are soliciting specialized electrical contractors to furnish, install, program, and maintain both fixed theatrical lighting infrastructure and portable lighting equipment, including LED theatrical fixtures, control systems, rigging components, and associated electrical work. The recent opportunities reveal a strong concentration of school district procurement in the Southeast and Southwest, with school districts and county education boards as the primary issuing bodies, supplemented by occasional municipal and county park procurement.

School districts dominate this code's recent activity: Pinellas County Schools (Florida) has posted multiple theatrical lighting renovation RFPs across three high school locations and single-venue projects valued near $500,000 to $1.68 million; Bulloch County Schools (Georgia) issued an RFP for LED lighting retrofit at Mill Creek Elementary with sealed proposals due November 5, 2026; Jordan School District (Utah) issued an IFB for theatrical lighting and audio-visual upgrades at Elk Ridge Middle School with bids due May 14, 2026; and Forsyth County Schools (Georgia) requested bids for FoCAL Theatre Lighting under solicitation B26-11 with a September 18, 2026 deadline. The School Board of Sarasota County (Florida) solicited theatrical stage rigging, lighting, and sound systems installation and maintenance services under ITB Bid #27-0287 with an August 11, 2026 response date. Beyond schools, the City of Sarasota procured Martin MAC theatrical lighting fixtures for the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall under a June 30, 2026 ITB. Gwinnett County Schools (Georgia) has emerged as a repeat buyer, issuing five school building interior renovation IFBs between August and October 2026 that implicitly include lighting work as part of comprehensive building renovation scopes. Recent opportunities cluster in Georgia, Florida, Utah, and Texas, with ongoing activity across the Southeast. Contractors face mandatory pre-bid conferences, strict bonding and insurance requirements (typically General Liability of $1–2 million and Performance/Payment Bonds at 100 percent of contract value), and licensing mandates—Florida Electrical Contractor (EC/ES) certification, Georgia General Contractor licensure, or Utah contractor licensing. Theater-specific work requires five years of documented experience in theatrical lighting and large-venue projection systems on comparable projects.
