UNSPSC 43191621: Handset adapters

UNSPSC 43191621 Handset adapters, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. State and local governments use this code to procure telephone handset adapters and related connectivity components for their telecommunications infrastructure, but the recent solicitation record reflects broader telephone equipment and communications procurement rather than adapters in isolation. The issuing bodies pursuing opportunities tagged to this code span state departments, counties, and cities — including the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ), City of Philadelphia, State of South Dakota, Washington State Technology Solutions, Broward County, and the Mississippi Department of Information Technology Services — with repeat activity from TDCJ and Philadelphia. The work being solicited under the code in practice encompasses analog phones, digital phone systems, Avaya enterprise communications platforms, Plantronics and JPL headsets and accessories, prepaid cellular devices, and NetGear network equipment, alongside supporting handset and adapter components for these larger telephone and data systems.

Recent opportunities span Texas, Florida, South Carolina, Washington, and Mississippi. Representative solicitations include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IW259396 and IW259396A for analog phones (ITB / RFP formats, August 2026 response dates), Broward County's GEN2132410B1 for Plantronics headsets and accessories (open-end indefinite-quantity contract, July 17, 2026 due date), the City of Philadelphia's B2727766 for prepaid cellphones and prepaid cards (RFQ, August 31, 2026 due date), Washington State Technology Solutions' 26RFQQ004 for Avaya hardware, software, and maintenance services across state agencies and five counties (RFQQ, August 6, 2026 due date, estimated $1.303 million five-year maintenance value), and the State of South Dakota's 26IFB19766 for annual telephone equipment and supplies (IFB, August 3, 2026 due date). The mismatch between the code's specific name and the breadth of telecommunications equipment actually being procured suggests that state and local procurement offices are tagging broader telephone and communications buys to this adapter-level code, creating limited visibility into true handset adapter demand.
