UNSPSC 39131506: Wire marker book

UNSPSC 39131506 Wire marker book is a Commodity code. State and local procurement under this code focuses on labeling and identification systems for electrical and telecommunications infrastructure—specifically marker books, tags, and related labeling products used to identify wire runs, cable pathways, and circuit identification in data centers, network facilities, and building electrical systems. The code appears in solicitations alongside broader cabling and electrical infrastructure work, though the recent opportunities block shows minimal direct procurement of wire marker books as a standalone item. Most issuing bodies—state departments of criminal justice and information resources, education service centers, school districts, and municipal utilities departments—buy wire markers as component materials bundled within larger structured cabling, broadband connectivity, video surveillance system installation, and general electrical equipment contracts rather than as discrete line items.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, where the Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) has driven significant cooperative purchasing volume through its master cabling contract vehicle (COOP2026SOL-00008, due September 24, 2026), which explicitly names wire management systems and related products as in-scope items. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an RFP for broadband connectivity continuation and cabling services (696IT26O017, due November 9, 2026) across 80 correctional facilities statewide. Texas Education Service Center Region 4 posted an IFB for cabling services and video surveillance installation (696IT26O017, due November 9, 2026) across member school districts. Northside Independent School District in San Antonio issued an IFB for electrical equipment, parts, and supplies (IFB2026098, due July 1, 2026). The City of Dallas conducted an informal solicitation for inventory electrical supplies (IFSAVIB11000035, due May 19, 2026). Activity outside Texas is minimal in the recent block; a Sourcewell cooperative procurement for law enforcement equipment (061626, due June 16, 2026) and the City of Wichita's bid for stakes and paddles (260143, due June 5, 2026) appear mismatched to wire marker book scope. Wire markers surface most clearly as subordinate materials in DIR's cooperative cabling contract, which reported $11.1 million (FY 2023), $11.5 million (FY 2024), and $12.0 million (FY 2025) in historical sales—though that volume spans all cabling products, not wire markers alone.
