UNSPSC 43191619: Telephone signaling devices

These are the signalling devices of the telephone. It includes the telephone bells, horns and strobes

UNSPSC 43191619 Telephone signaling devices (Commodity) covers headsets, adapters, and associated telephony hardware that state and local governments procure for 911 call centers, IT departments, school systems, and general office communications. Recent solicitations show counties, states, school districts, and municipal agencies sourcing Plantronics and JPL headsets with noise-canceling and convertible configurations, Y adapters, mute switches, wireless push-to-talk devices, and replacement ear cushions. Issuing bodies span county purchasing offices (Broward County, Florida), state IT and procurement agencies (South Dakota, Mississippi), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools serving 225,000 students across 235 facilities, District of Columbia School System), and specialized agencies including the Texas Department of Criminal Justice and City of Charlotte. Solicitation structures include open-end indefinite-quantity contracts, blanket purchase agreements restricted to pre-qualified vendor lists, and annual supply contracts. Several solicitations conflate this code with broader telecommunications and network equipment procurement, suggesting inconsistent UNSPSC tagging at the point of sale.

The most active recent opportunities cluster in Florida, South Carolina, Mississippi, and Texas. Broward County issued RFP GEN2132410B1 (due July 17, 2026) for Plantronics and JPL headsets and accessories serving its Office of Regional Communications and Technology and 911 PSAPs under an open-end contract with SBE and local-business preference eligibility. South Dakota's Office of Procurement Management posted IFB 26IFB19766 (due August 3, 2026) for annual telephone equipment and supplies to various state locations. The District of Columbia solicited headsets and adapters through RFQ FY26-OUC-RFQ-BPA (due March 23, 2026) restricted to pre-qualified DCSS IT Equipment Vendors. Hillsborough County Public Schools issued multiple ITBs for infrastructure communications maintenance covering Nortel/Avaya telephone systems alongside security panels, requiring five years' experience and certified technicians. Pricing is typically firm for initial terms with renewal increases capped at three percent or the Consumer Price Index. Insurance requirements range from $500,000 to $1,000,000 general liability, and most jurisdictions require electronic submission through procurement portals (BPRO, VendorLink, Bonfire).
