UNSPSC 39111606: Underwater lighting

UNSPSC 39111606 Underwater lighting is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal scope. The most recent opportunities tagged to this code show a mismatch: Northside Independent School District's IFB for electrical equipment, parts, supplies, rentals, repairs, and services (posted June 8, 2026, due July 1, 2026); the City of Philadelphia's RFQ for CCOM podcast equipment (posted June 4, 2026, due June 14, 2026); the Illinois Department of Corrections' ITB for Lithonia LED perimeter lighting and electrical components at Pontiac Correctional Center (posted June 2, 2026, due June 9, 2026, with materials required by June 30, 2026); and Sourcewell's RFP for law enforcement equipment on behalf of multiple Minnesota and Washington state counties (posted May 12, 2026, due June 16, 2026). Of these, only the Illinois Department of Corrections' procurement for LED perimeter lighting and replacement electrical parts relates directly to exterior lighting; the other three are general electrical equipment, office automation, or law enforcement procurement and do not reflect underwater lighting procurement.

The Illinois opportunity is the only recent solicitation with genuine relevance to the code. The Department of Corrections sought nine line items totaling 432 units of Lithonia LED fixtures (ranging 5,000–50,000 lumens) and electrical components (slipfitter mounts, shorting caps, fuse holders, insulating boots, and time-delay fuses) to replace high-pressure sodium perimeter fixtures at Pontiac Correctional Center. All items required 480-volt rating; bids were submitted on an F.O.B. Destination basis with vendor-paid transportation and handling. The procurement was limited to the stated Lithonia products with no alternative proposals permitted. The code shows little recent activity genuinely aligned to underwater or subsurface lighting procurement; state and local buyers appear to be using this Commodity code inconsistently or not at all for its intended scope.
