UNSPSC 43201823: Multimedia hard disc drive HDD player

This device stores data like a normal hard disk drive but is used to record and play video images.

UNSPSC 43201823 Multimedia hard disc drive HDD player is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally encompasses multimedia hard disc drive players, though the recent opportunities on file show little alignment with this scope. The DeSoto County School Board of Education posted an unpriced proposal notice (bid 77-20260806084040 DCS, due September 1, 2026) with details not specified in available materials. A second opportunity from the Texas Department of Information Resources (RFO DIR-CPO-TMP-561, posted July 28, 2026) covers Apple Branded Products and Related Services — encompassing desktop computers, laptop computers, tablets, peripheral devices, accessories, software, installation, warranty, maintenance, support, managed services, and training — which does not map to the HDD player code definition. The latter solicitation carries a historical context of $949.35 million in combined statewide Apple product sales across state agencies, local governments, institutions of higher education, and other authorized entities during fiscal years 2018–2021.

The geographic activity is limited to Mississippi and Texas based on recent postings. State-level procurement offices and school districts are the issuing bodies in the visible record. The Texas opportunity required responses by November 19, 2021 (now superseded), included a 21.1 percent Historically Underutilized Business subcontracting goal, and mandated accessibility documentation (VPAT, VADSIR, and PDAA questionnaires). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitations suggests this code sees little targeted state and local activity for multimedia HDD players; the opportunities filed under it reflect broader technology procurement rather than the specific product category the code defines.
