UNSPSC 39122208: Time switch

UNSPSC 39122208 Time switch is a Commodity code covering electromechanical and electronic timing and control switches that state and local governments procure for facility infrastructure, transportation systems, and utility operations. Recent solicitations show procurement spanning network switch installation and replacement (removing end-of-life switches and installing new equipment with labor and materials), solenoid lock switches with controller transformers for transit rolling stock, mercury float switches for pump control in water systems, contact kits and relay components for motor control and SCADA applications, and emergency obstruction lighting assemblies. The work ranges from supply-only (furnishing components like float switches or contact kits) to labor-inclusive (installing network switches with testing and minimization of operational disruption). Issuing bodies include city departments of aviation and transportation, county water resources and purchasing offices, school districts, transit authorities, and state departments of criminal justice. Repeat buyers across the recent opportunities include Hillsborough County (multiple ITBs for electrical components and switches) and the Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority (multiple purchase orders for switches, fuses, power converters, and obstruction lighting).

Georgia, Texas, and Florida show the heaviest recent activity. Representative opportunities include the City of Atlanta Department of Aviation's IFB for network switch replacement labor and installation (due August 3, 2026), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's solicitation for electrical switches and maintenance equipment (due April 29, 2026), Northside Independent School District's IFB for electrical equipment, parts, supplies, and repairs (due July 1, 2026), Hillsborough County's ITBs for mercury float switches (due March 2, 2026, estimated $60,000 over two years) and Square D contact kits (due February 24, 2026, estimated $184,000 over two years), and the Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority's multiple purchase orders for solenoid lock switches (due May 20, 2026), 10A traction power fuses (due February 26, 2026), and obstruction light assemblies (due February 24, 2026). Opportunities also span cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell RFP #061626 for law enforcement equipment) and school district E-Rate-funded network infrastructure upgrades involving core switches. Geographic spread includes activity across Texas (DART, TDCJ, Dallas ISD), Florida (Hillsborough County, Orange County Transportation Authority), Georgia (Bibb County Schools, Gordon County Schools), Connecticut, and multi-state cooperative procurement frameworks.
