UNSPSC 43211700: Computer data input devices

Devices that enable a computer to access data inputs or feed signals from outside sources.

UNSPSC 43211700 Computer data input devices is a Class code that encompasses keyboards, mice, trackpads, touchscreens, data entry terminals, and specialized input hardware used across state and local government operations. The recent solicitation activity under this code, however, shows minimal direct procurement of standalone input devices; instead, state and local buyers are acquiring integrated technology systems and equipment bundles where input devices are components within larger platform or infrastructure purchases. The issuing bodies include school districts (School District U-46 in Illinois, Uplift Education in Texas, Valencia College District in Florida), municipal governments (City of Bristol, Connecticut and City of Flowery Branch, Georgia), state agencies (California Department of Water Resources), and cooperative purchasing entities (Sourcewell on behalf of participating counties and municipalities across multiple states). School districts dominate recent activity, driven by device-refresh cycles and one-to-one computing initiatives; Valencia College and Sourcewell appear as repeat or multi-entity buyers within recent months.

Representative recent opportunities include School District U-46's RFP for 8,000 student Chromebooks (due March 11, 2026), Uplift Education's RFP for approximately 27,000 Chromebook units over three years (due March 12, 2026), and Valencia College District's RFP for comprehensive classroom and conference room technology services across nine campus locations with 50–75 room upgrades annually and historical annual spending of $1.6 million (due April 30, 2026). California Department of Water Resources issued an RFQ on April 15, 2026 for hydrologic dataloggers and transmitters, and City of Flowery Branch, Georgia solicited SCADA system equipment and integration services (due June 30, 2026). Chromebook procurements cluster in the K–12 and higher-education segments in Illinois, Texas, and Florida, while specialized input or monitoring instrumentation appears in water resource and utility infrastructure sectors in California and Georgia. Sourcewell's cooperative law enforcement equipment RFP (due June 16, 2026) spans Washington, Minnesota, and other jurisdictions but lacks detail on input device specifics. Geographic concentration is strongest in Texas, Illinois, and Florida for education technology, with California and Georgia representing infrastructure-focused procurement. The code shows activity but not singular focus on standalone input devices—most opportunities bundle input components within platform or system-level purchases.
