UNSPSC 39111546: High bay lighting

Light fixture used for large scale or area commercial applications.

UNSPSC 39111546 High bay lighting is a Commodity code encompassing LED-based and traditional lighting fixtures designed for use in high-ceiling indoor spaces such as warehouses, gymnasiums, recreational facilities, parking structures, and industrial settings. State and local governments procure under this code everything from individual high-output LED fixture replacements to complete system upgrades including controls, wiring, installation labor, and operator training. Recent solicitations show a shift toward LED conversion projects paired with dimming and occupancy controls, particularly in school gymnasiums, aquatic facilities, and municipal recreation centers.

The issuing-body mix is diverse: school districts and community colleges represent the largest share, including Pinellas County Schools (Florida), Bibb County Schools (Georgia), Cherokee County Schools (Georgia), Gull Lake Community Schools (Michigan), and Oak Park Schools (Michigan); county governments and special-purpose districts including Gwinnett County (Georgia), Volusia County (Florida), and the Lee County Port Authority; and cities including Sarasota, Pembroke Pines, Bartow, and Wheat Ridge. Recent activity is concentrated in Florida, Georgia, and Michigan, with secondary clusters in Texas, Colorado, and the upper Midwest. Representative solicitations include Gwinnett County's Bethesda Park Aquatic Center Lighting Replacement (IFB, sealed bids due March 13, 2026, covering LED fixture and control panel installation), Bibb County Schools' LED field lighting system installation at seven middle school practice fields (RFP, proposals due May 21, 2026, with mandatory pre-bid and site visit April 29, 2026), Pinellas County Schools' Theater Lighting Renovations at three high schools (ITB, bids due March 12, 2026, approximately $1.68 million total contract value across all locations), and the City of Wheat Ridge's Recreation Center gymnasium LED lighting retrofit (RFP 25-037, with proposals due October 24, 2025). Procurement activity spans single-product RFQs for component replacement (ballasts, capacitors, individual fixtures) through $500,000-plus turnkey system design-build-install-training contracts. Labor-only work and equipment-only supply procurements both appear regularly. Davis-Bacon and HUD Section 3 requirements appear in federally funded projects such as the City of Bartow's Carver Recreation Center field lighting (CDBG-funded ITB) and the City of Bridgeport's Prospect House renovations. Set-asides for MBE and WBE participation are noted sporadically; local-vendor preferences and geographic residency requirements appear in several recent RFQs. This code shows active, broad-based demand across municipal and educational infrastructure, with LED retrofit and controls integration the dominant procurement driver.
