UNSPSC 39121555: Counter control

UNSPSC 39121555 Counter Control is a Commodity code covering specialized electrical connectors, clamps, and related hardware that state and local governments procure for power distribution, traffic signal systems, and utility infrastructure maintenance. The code sees steady activity across utilities, transportation authorities, school districts, and county governments, with recent solicitations centered on ground clamps, terminal connectors, bolted aluminum connectors, and cable ancillary components. Issuing bodies span municipal utilities (City of Austin Energy, Lubbock Power & Light), county transportation and facilities management (Harris County Precinct 3, DeKalb County, Galveston County), school districts (Northside Independent School District, Pinellas County School District), transit authorities (Trinity Metro, Dallas Area Rapid Transit, Orange County Transportation Authority), and consolidated city/county governments (Columbus Consolidated Government, City of Atlanta Department of Aviation). Texas jurisdictions—particularly Austin, Harris County, and Galveston County—dominate the recent opportunities, though activity extends to Georgia, Florida, Ohio, and California.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Austin Transportation & Public Works Department's IFQ 6200 AJC1026 (October 23, 2026 response date) for various traffic signal cables totaling approximately 34,500 feet across four cable types with IMSA specifications and UV ratings; the City of Austin Energy's IFQ 1100 CPG1088 (October 7, 2026) for 250 ground clamp units (#2/0 to #250 MCM EL-172) with BURNDY and SEFCOR manufacturer options; and the City of Austin Purchasing Office's IFQ 1100 BAS1102 (September 29, 2026) for 125 aluminum terminal connector bolts rated 3000 amps continuous. Harris County Precinct 3's ITB 260248 (October 26, 2026) and Columbus Consolidated Government's RFB 27-0012 (October 28, 2026) solicit electrical fixtures, parts, and supplies broadly on as-needed blanket-purchase or catalog-discount bases. These procurements typically employ tiered distribution—initial offers limited to certified HUB or M/WBE vendors, with broader posting if adequate quotes are not received. Award goes to the lowest responsive offer; FOB Destination freight-inclusive pricing, no taxes included, and 30-day payment upon receipt of invoice are standard terms. Many solicitations require authorized dealer or reseller status, manufacturer product data sheets, and demonstration of prior experience supplying similar-sized agencies.
