UNSPSC 39122109: Square type steel crossarm

Structure constructed to enable installation of electrical cable by horizontally installing on electric pole to support overhead line, and is also referred to as an arm.

UNSPSC 39122109 Square type steel crossarm is a Commodity code that encompasses structural components used in electric utility infrastructure, specifically steel crossarms installed on distribution and transmission poles to support conductors and attachments. State and local governments—primarily municipal electric utilities and rural electric cooperatives—procure these components as part of pole replacement, system modernization, and line relocation projects. The recent opportunities show that crossarms are typically procured alongside broader utility infrastructure work rather than as standalone commodity purchases; they appear embedded within pole replacement contracts, easement projects, and right-of-way maintenance initiatives where utilities upgrade or relocate service delivery infrastructure.

Recent activity centers in Florida, where three municipal and cooperative electric utilities have solicited work involving pole infrastructure. Keys Energy Services (KEYS), the municipal electric utility for Key West, posted an RFP in September 2026 for a secondary easement pole replacement project involving approximately 151 distribution poles and 145 customer service drop relocations on its 13.8 kV distribution system, with proposals due October 23, 2026 via VendorLink or DemandStar and work performed during 2027–2028. The Orlando Utilities Commission (OUC) issued an RFP in August 2026 for a joint use and streetlight attachments inventory audit covering approximately 55,000 poles with over 77,000 foreign attachments and 35,000 light poles, with proposals due December 4, 2025 and aimed at validating GIS infrastructure mapping. Glades Electric Cooperative, a Florida-based distribution cooperative serving 19,000 accounts across 2,600 miles of line in Glades, Hendry, Highlands, and Okeechobee counties, issued an RFP on March 24, 2026 for vegetation management and right-of-way trimming on four separate jobs covering transmission and distribution circuits, with proposals due April 23, 2026 via VendorLink. Pasco County Board of County Commissioners also solicited underground utility locating and bulk asset inventory collection services in June 2026. Outside Florida, the City of College Station, Texas posted an ITB for traffic signal construction at an intersection and an RFP for utility relocation under State Highway 6 in April and May 2026, though these involve transmission infrastructure rather than crossarm procurement directly.
