UNSPSC 43201601: Computer chassis

A chassis is encloser designed to protect computer sub-assemblies or components

UNSPSC 43201601 Computer chassis is a Commodity code covering desktop towers, mini desktops, and all-in-one form-factor systems that state and local governments procure for general business computing and specialized applications. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reflect purchasing across county government IT departments, school districts, and specialized facilities such as correctional institutions, with scope typically extending to complete systems including monitors, peripherals, and warranty coverage. Issuing bodies span large county IT operations (Collin County, Texas procuring approximately 600 computers annually), major school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida planning 13,000-unit Year 1 rollout; Gwinnett County Public Schools in Georgia; Bibb County and Troup County school systems in Georgia), smaller school districts (Columbia County, Lowndes County, McDuffie County, and DeSoto County in Georgia and Mississippi), and specialized government facilities (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, District of Columbia Department of Corrections). Repeat activity centers on school technology refresh cycles and county government workstation standardization, with Dell and Lenovo serving as dominant specified brands, though HP and Chromebook (ChromeOS) platforms appear regularly. Recent opportunities show significant geographic concentration in Georgia and Florida, with active procurement in Texas, Mississippi, Wisconsin, and the District of Columbia.
