UNSPSC 39121316: Ceiling box

UNSPSC 39121316 Ceiling box, a Commodity code, does not align with the state and local procurement activity recorded under this classification. The recent opportunities dataset shows no solicitations for ceiling boxes or ceiling-related construction materials. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span electrical infrastructure work entirely unrelated to the code's nominal scope: circuit breaker replacement, power transformers, electrical code compliance repairs, electrical supplies and equipment inventory, switchgear testing, control panel fabrication, and water treatment plant construction. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in how these opportunities were tagged or a gap between the code definition and current procurement practice. State and local buyers are not purchasing ceiling boxes under this code at present.

The issuing bodies span utility authorities, school districts, county governments, state correctional and technology departments, cities, and special-purpose districts across Florida, Mississippi, Michigan, Texas, California, Georgia, and Illinois. The volume and diversity of issuers reflect fragmented demand across utility operations, facility maintenance, criminal justice infrastructure, and community development. Recent representative opportunities include the Kissimmee Utility Authority's IFB for 15 kV circuit breaker replacement (response date November 15, 2016); Hillsborough County's ITB for pump station control panels and other enclosures valued at $3.66 million over two years (due September 29, 2026); Lubbock Power & Light's RFP for outdoor circuit breakers (due September 24, 2026); and Broward County's open-end contract for water and wastewater control panel fabrication and refurbishment (due June 22, 2026). Set-asides vary by issuer; some procurements carry DBE or SLBE preferences, while others are open competition. Without aligned procurement activity, this code presents no actionable market signal for ceiling box suppliers.
