UNSPSC 39131501: Clip on wire marker

UNSPSC 39131501 Clip on wire marker is a Commodity-tier code that covers wire identification and management products, but the recent state and local opportunities under this code show significant scope divergence — the solicitations are being tagged with the code despite procuring broadband cabling infrastructure, video surveillance systems, electrical supplies, and law enforcement equipment rather than discrete wire markers. The few opportunities nominally touching cabling or electrical work (the Texas Department of Criminal Justice broadband and surveillance systems RFP, the Texas Education Service Center Region 4 cabling and video surveillance IFB, the Texas Department of Information Resources cooperative cabling contract, and the Northside Independent School District electrical equipment IFB) are requesting complete system installation, maintenance, and support services rather than clip-on markers as discrete consumables. The issuing bodies span state departments, education cooperatives and school districts, and municipal and county procurement offices, primarily concentrated in Texas and Washington state. This code shows little relevant recent activity tied to its nominal commodity scope.

The geographic concentration is driven by Texas procurement activity — the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (RFP 696IT26O017, due November 9, 2026), Texas Education Service Center Region 4 (IFB, due November 9, 2026), the Texas Department of Information Resources cooperative contract (COOP2026SOL-00008, due September 24, 2026 with a virtual bidders' conference on August 18, 2026), Northside Independent School District in San Antonio (IFB2026098, due July 1, 2026), and the City of Dallas (IFSAVIB11000035, due May 19, 2026). Outside Texas, the City of Wichita issued a minor solicitation for stakes, paddles, and wedges (IFB 260143, due June 5, 2026), and Sourcewell issued a law enforcement equipment RFP (061626, due June 16, 2026) serving multiple Pacific Northwest counties. The code's tagging appears to reflect procurement system misclassification rather than actual buyer intent — firms targeting this code should cross-reference the actual commodity scope with the issuing body's detailed solicitation documents to confirm relevance before pursuing.
