UNSPSC 41115200: Radar and sonar systems and components

UNSPSC 41115200 Radar and sonar systems and components is a Class code covering automated traffic enforcement, detection, and monitoring systems currently solicited by state agencies, county public safety departments, and municipal transportation authorities across Florida, Arizona, Tennessee, Wisconsin, Georgia, and other states. State and local governments buy radar speed-detection units, automated license plate reader systems with fixed infrastructure, red-light camera systems, school-zone speed enforcement platforms with integrated detection technology, and intelligent transportation system components including traffic signal controllers with embedded detection capabilities—all typically procured as turnkey operations where the vendor assumes installation, maintenance, software integration, and ongoing support costs. Recent opportunities show the code applied to both specialized law enforcement equipment and broader ITS deployments; while some solicitations target narrow equipment buys (Marion County's sole-source Stalker DSR 2X and Stalker 2X motorcycle radar units), the bulk of recent activity centers on comprehensive, multi-year automated traffic enforcement or ITS programs bundling detection hardware with citation processing, data management, and field services.

Geographic and issuing-body activity concentrates in Florida (School Board of Hillsborough County ITQ for vehicle camera and navigation systems; City of Kissimmee RFQ for school-zone speed detection cameras with a local-vendor preference; City of Orlando RFP for red-light camera systems covering 80 intersections; Orange County bids for ITS fiber-optic network repair and construction at an estimated $5.17 million; Pasco County traffic signal construction bids) and extends across Arizona (City of Tucson RFP for automated traffic enforcement safety device systems with federal ARPA, FTA, and HUD funding), Tennessee (Town of Farragut RFP for automated traffic enforcement at nine intersections), Wisconsin (Dane County Sheriff's Office RFP for automated license plate reader systems with cloud-based evidence management, authorized funding of $80,000 annually through October 2031), and Georgia (Marion County sole-source radar procurements; City of Brunswick revenue-sharing model for school-zone speed detection). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Tucson's October 22, 2026 RFP deadline for a turnkey automated traffic enforcement system with multiple fixed intersection cameras, portable and mobile speed photo radar units, and compliance with federal buy-America, DBE, and Section 3 workforce requirements; the Town of Farragut's June 3, 2026 RFP deadline for automated red-light enforcement at four locations with a five-year contract term plus optional renewal periods and an assumed volume of 9,000 citations monthly at $50 per citation; and Dane County Sheriff's Office's September 3, 2026 RFP deadline for a fixed ALPR system with 26 cameras, cloud evidence management, integration with Axon Mobile and Spillman platforms, and $80,000 annual authorized funding. The Hillsborough County ITQ is due June 3, 2026 for vehicle camera, navigation, ridership, and communication system services across a fleet serving 225,000 students.
