UNSPSC 39131504: Wire identification marker

UNSPSC 39131504 Wire identification marker is a Commodity code that state and local governments buy as a component within larger cabling, electrical, and infrastructure installation projects rather than as a standalone line item. Recent solicitations show wire identification markers are specified within broader structured cabling systems, network infrastructure upgrades, and electrical equipment procurements. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Department of Information Resources), education service centers and school districts (Texas Education Service Center Region 4, Northside Independent School District), cities (Dallas, Wichita), and multi-jurisdictional cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell). The scope of work includes identification markers and labeling products associated with data cabling (copper Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat 7, and fiber optic installations), video surveillance system cabling, broadband connectivity infrastructure, and general electrical equipment inventories. Wire identification markers appear in specifications alongside patch panels, wall plates, connectors, data racks, and wire management systems as part of comprehensive infrastructure installation and maintenance contracts.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, where the Texas Department of Information Resources operates a statewide cooperative contract vehicle (COOP2026SOL-00008) for cabling services and related products with posted historical sales of $11.1 million (FY 2023), $11.5 million (FY 2024), and $12.0 million (FY 2025). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued RFP 696IT26O017 on October 10, 2026, for broadband connectivity and video surveillance cabling across 80 correctional facilities statewide, with proposals due November 9, 2026, and a mandatory Veteran Heroes United in Business (VetHUB) subcontracting participation goal of 3% for contracts valued at $100,000 or more. Texas Education Service Center Region 4 posted sealed bids for cabling services and video surveillance system installation with the same November 9, 2026, deadline. Outside Texas, Northside Independent School District (San Antonio) issued IFB 2026098 for electrical equipment, parts, and supplies due July 1, 2026, and Sourcewell (Minnesota-based cooperative serving multi-state jurisdictions including Washington) posted RFP 061626 for law enforcement equipment due June 16, 2026. Wire identification markers are embedded within these larger infrastructure contracts; the code shows no standalone procurement activity for markers as isolated products.
