UNSPSC 39121047: Intermediate frequency transformer

Transformer used to convert input/output impedance as well as to obtain selectivity of intermediate frequency in intermediate amplifier unit.

UNSPSC 39121047 Intermediate frequency transformer, a Commodity code, is being solicited by state and local governments primarily for turnkey power distribution and electrical system upgrades at utility facilities, water production plants, correctional institutions, and transit infrastructure. The code appears in the source material primarily as a component embedded within larger electrical system installation and maintenance contracts rather than as a standalone procurement line item. Recent opportunities show mixed application: the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Memorial Unit electrical replacement (RFP 696-FD-26-P036) calls for two 2500 KVA transformers and 12.5KV/4160V system installation; Lubbock Power & Light's Oliver Substation project (RFP 7133-26-ELD) solicits a 50 MVA 115-12.47 kV three-phase power transformer; the City of Cumming's potable water facility generator project (Solicitation PE66895NONST2026000000054) includes a 3,750 kVA step-up transformer; and the City of Fairburn's underground power installation (IFB 26-016) encompasses 25 kV rated primary cable and transformer pad components. Issuing bodies span municipal utilities, county water and power departments, state agencies, and transit authorities across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Mississippi. The code also appears in broader electrical supply and maintenance solicitations such as Northside Independent School District's electrical equipment RFP and the City of Atlanta's Foxboro DCS parts prequalification, where transformers function as components within integrated systems rather than discrete procurements.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas (TDCJ, Lubbock Power & Light, Dallas), Georgia (Cumming, Fairburn, Albany), and Florida, with secondary activity in Mississippi (University of Mississippi 13 kV distribution improvements). The most substantial recent opportunity is the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Memorial Unit project with an estimated budget of $6.806 million for phase-one electrical replacement including dual 2500 KVA transformers, due June 8, 2026, through the TDCJ Procurement Portal (Bonfire); the Lubbock Power & Light 50 MVA transformer for Oliver Substation (RFP 7133-26-ELD), with proposals due August 5, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. CST and delivery by April 3, 2028, requires ANSI C57.12 compliance and includes liquidated damages of $1,000 per day for late delivery. The City of Cumming's PWPF Generator and Switchgear Project (RFP PE66895NONST2026000000054) solicits turnkey 3,750 kVA step-up transformer installation with proposals due August 7, 2026. Opportunities generally require compliance with state prevailing wage schedules, insurance minimums ranging from $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 in general liability coverage, and performance or payment bonds equal to 100 percent of contract value. Delivery timelines range from immediate (pad-mount transformer delivery within 30 days for City of Albany) to extended timeframes (April 3, 2028 for Lubbock Power & Light). The code shows consistent activity in utility infrastructure modernization and capital improvement programs but appears most prominently embedded within larger electrical system contracts rather than as isolated transformer procurement events.
