UNSPSC 39121906: Plug and cord lockout

UNSPSC 39121906 Plug and cord lockout, a Commodity code, does not align with the work state and local governments are actually buying under this classification. The recent solicitations posted under this code span motor control center replacements, electrical equipment and parts supply, SCADA system modifications, and utility infrastructure services—none of which fall within the scope of plug and cord lockout devices or lockout-tagout (LOTO) equipment.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual procurement activity suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or that this code has fallen into disuse for its intended product category. The issuing bodies include water districts (West Basin Municipal Water District, Buckman Direct Diversion via Santa Fe), counties (Hillsborough County, Bay County, Riverside County), cities (Tampa, Orlando, Bartow), and school districts (Northside Independent School District), with activity concentrated in Florida, California, New Mexico, and Texas between April and October 2026. Representative opportunities include Hillsborough County's ITB for pump station control panels and enclosures ($3.66 million estimated value, bids due September 29, 2026), the City of Santa Fe's RFP for PLC replacement and SCADA modifications (proposals due December 18, 2025), and Northside Independent School District's IFB for electrical equipment, parts, supplies, and services (bids due July 1, 2026). Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for plug and cord lockout procurement purposes and investigate whether these opportunities are mislabeled or whether the code itself requires review for current assignment.
