UNSPSC 39112201: Atmospheric effect apparatus

UNSPSC 39112201 Atmospheric effect apparatus is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure theatrical and performance-venue lighting equipment, stage rigging systems, and related lighting infrastructure for school auditoriums, performing arts centers, and civic facilities. The recent opportunities show a strong concentration in school district purchasing for theater and auditorium lighting, electrical installation and maintenance services, and holiday decorative lighting for municipal facilities. Work being solicited ranges from specialized theatrical stage lighting fixtures and control systems to comprehensive electrical maintenance contracts covering indoor fixtures, outdoor sports-field and parking-lot lighting, solar systems, and EV charging infrastructure. Issuing bodies include school districts (notably Pinellas County School District in Florida, Forsyth County Schools in North Carolina, and Sarasota County Schools in Florida), municipalities (City of Cooper City, Florida), county port authorities, and state cultural institutions. The code also captures standalone purchases of portable light towers and airfield lighting components, indicating a secondary but material market for industrial and specialized lighting equipment beyond traditional theatrical applications.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida (Pinellas, Sarasota, Lee County, and Cooper City), with representation in Texas (Brownsville and Harlingen school districts), North Carolina (Forsyth County), Illinois (Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum), and California (Santa Clara County).
