UNSPSC 39121703: Cable ties

UNSPSC 39121703 Cable ties (Commodity) covers fastening components solicited by state and local governments as part of broader electrical equipment, parts, and supplies procurements. The code sits within buys for electrical distribution, utility infrastructure construction, and facility maintenance where cable ties serve as line items bundled with conductors, conduit, brackets, insulators, and related hardware rather than as standalone purchases. State and local buyers include school districts, municipal departments, electric cooperatives, and utilities procuring electrical supplies on as-needed or project-specific bases. Northside Independent School District, the City of Phoenix Public Works Department, Donna Independent School District, and Florida Keys Electric Cooperative have all solicited electrical parts and supplies contracts within the past four months, with school districts using catalog discount and percentage-off-list pricing structures and utilities and municipalities issuing sealed-bid and RFQ notices for specific material requirements.

Geographic activity centers on Texas and Arizona, with secondary representation from Florida. Representative recent opportunities include Northside Independent School District's IFB2026098 (Electrical Equipment, Parts, Supplies, Rentals, Repairs & Services) with a July 1, 2026 response date; the City of Phoenix Public Works Department's IFB 26-FMD-012 (Electrical Parts and Supplies), a three-year term contract with a July 9, 2025 due date; Donna Independent School District's RFP 011326875 (Electrical and Plumbing Supplies catalog bid) with an April 8, 2026 deadline; and Florida Keys Electric Cooperative's Call for Quotes FKECBID2605 for electric distribution feeder materials with a March 18, 2026 deadline. School districts typically require percentage discounts from manufacturer or catalog pricing, include all shipping in quoted prices on an F.O.B. Destination basis, and award to multiple vendors for as-needed purchasing. Utilities and municipal departments procure by line-item specification and quantity, with weighted evaluation criteria emphasizing cost, quality, and availability.
