UNSPSC 39112500: Stage and studio luminaires

UNSPSC 39112500 Stage and studio luminaires is a Class code under which state and local governments procure theatrical and performance-venue lighting systems, including spotlights, track-mounted fixtures, LED wash and cyc units, control systems, and associated installation and maintenance services. Recent opportunities show mixed demand: some jurisdictions are procuring specialized theatrical lighting for auditoriums and performance centers (e.g., Granite School District's auditorium lighting system upgrade at Cottonwood High School, the City of Orlando's spotlight systems at the Kia Center), while others are acquiring general-purpose outdoor or infrastructure lighting classified under this code despite limited relevance to theatrical applications (e.g., traffic signal improvements and holiday decoration lighting). The issuing bodies span school districts, city venues and parks departments, transportation authorities, and cultural institutions. Granite School District, the City of Orlando (through its Venues Division), the State of Illinois (Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum), and Trinity Metro (Fort Worth Transportation Authority) are recent active buyers. The code also captures sole-source procurements for specialized airfield lighting systems (Lee County Port Authority's ADB Safegate fixtures) and light-tower equipment (County of Santa Clara's Generac Hypercube model).

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, Utah, and Illinois, with scattered additional posting across the Southeast and nationwide. Representative procurements include: Granite School District (IFB JF26018, auditorium lighting system upgrade at Cottonwood High School in Murray, Utah, sealed bids due April 16, 2026); the City of Orlando (IFB 26-0290, Kia Center spotlights—ten Lycian Model 1295 ELT fixtures with installation and three-year maintenance, bids due March 12, 2026); the State of Illinois through ALPLM (IFB 26-506, Electronic Theater Control track lighting for the Illinois Gallery and Citizen City exhibit, bids due May 28, 2026, including 4% Business Enterprise Program goal); Education Service Center Region 10 (RFP R10-1191, nationwide cooperative Venue Outfitting and Entertainment Integration Solutions covering lighting, audio, broadcast, and rigging for arenas and performing arts centers, proposals due April 17, 2026, estimated annual volume exceeding $100 million by year three). Activity remains episodic, driven by capital facility upgrades and renovations rather than recurring maintenance cycles.
