UNSPSC 43191612: Phone rests

A phone accessory designed to provide a place to rest a phone on a person's shoulder while talking.

UNSPSC 43191612 Phone rests, a Commodity code, does not reflect the work currently being solicited by state and local governments under this classification. The recent opportunities posted against this code span prepaid mobile devices, analog telephone systems for correctional facilities, network equipment, communication platform hardware and software (Avaya systems), headset accessories, and computer equipment—none of which align with the code's nominal scope of phone rest products. The issuing bodies across these opportunities include state departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Mississippi Department of Information Technology Services, South Dakota Office of Procurement Management, Washington State Technology Solutions), county governments (Broward County, Florida), and cities (Philadelphia). This geographic spread spans Texas, South Dakota, Washington, Mississippi, Florida, and Pennsylvania.

The mismatch between code scope and actual procurement signals that the code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors selling phone rest equipment or accessories in the traditional sense. Representative recent solicitations—the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's August 2026 RFQ for analog phones (IW259396A), the City of Philadelphia's July 2026 RFQ for NetGear Port equipment (B2727613), and Broward County's July 2026 IFB for Plantronics and JPL headsets and accessories (GEN2132410B1)—all involve telecommunications systems, communication platforms, and related hardware rather than phone rest products. A business development professional should treat this code as inactive for traditional phone rest procurement and verify the correct commodity classification before pursuing opportunities posted under UNSPSC 43191612.
