UNSPSC 43202106: Portable media case or wallet

Cases or organizers for USB flash drives or memory sticks or flashcards to protect them from dust and humidity, and for portability.

UNSPSC 43202106 Portable media case or wallet is a Commodity code that in practice captures audiovisual integration hardware, mounting systems, and related physical infrastructure for classroom and conference room technology deployments at educational institutions. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily higher-education entities — colleges and universities — procuring turnkey technology solutions that include integrated video projection systems, control panels, wireless display support, loudspeaker systems, document cameras, and equipment cabinets as bundled system components rather than discrete portable cases or wallets in the traditional sense. The mismatch between the code's nominal name and the actual work being solicited suggests that Valencia College District Board of Trustees in Florida tagged this opportunity with a Commodity code that does not reflect the full scope of services — the procurement is anchored in comprehensive classroom and conference room technology services, including system design, integration, installation, programming, and ongoing support across nine campus locations, rather than media storage accessories alone.

Valencia College District Board of Trustees issued RFP 2026-26 on April 6, 2026, closing April 30, 2026, seeking a qualified integrator or supplier with established integration partnerships to provide turnkey classroom and conference room technology services college-wide, serving approximately 900 rooms across multiple campuses with annual spending historically averaging $1.6 million over five fiscal years. The College anticipates upgrading 50–75 rooms per year and requires proposers to demonstrate five years of active experience, completion of at least ten similar projects in the past three years, dedicated account management, same-day response for high-priority technical issues, local service capabilities, and a full-time certified programmer on staff. The RFP specifies preferred equipment manufacturers — Panasonic, Sony, Chief, Da-Lite, Extron, Elmo, JBL, Crestron, and Crown — and will be awarded for an initial three-year term with optional two one-year extensions, up to five years cumulative. A non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting was scheduled for April 8, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. via Zoom, with questions due April 21, 2026, and proposals due electronically by April 30, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. EST.
