UNSPSC 43211914: LCD passive display

Active matrix display uses a grid of transistors and capacitors for improved image quality. Passive matrix depends on a non dynamic conductive grid to supply current, resulting in a lesser level of image quality.

UNSPSC 43211914 LCD passive display is a Commodity code that encompasses flat-panel display components—including monitors, tablets, and integrated display subsystems—procured by state and local governments primarily to equip operational control centers, emergency dispatch facilities, classroom and conference room technology systems, and student nutrition point-of-sale operations. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring LCD displays both as standalone peripherals (24-inch monitors for school nutrition systems) and as integrated components within larger technology platforms such as computer-aided dispatch systems, SCADA control interfaces, and educational tablets. School districts represent the dominant buyer segment under this code, with Hillsborough County Public Schools and Valencia College District posting multiple opportunities involving display procurement for both instructional and operational support. County utilities and emergency management agencies also solicit under the code when upgrading operational display infrastructure. The Washington Military Department, City of Flowery Branch (Georgia), and Parkway School District (Missouri) round out the mix of issuing bodies visible in recent activity.

Recent opportunities cluster in the Southeast and Pacific Northwest. Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa area) posted two competitive solicitations in early 2026—an ITB for 200 24-inch LCD monitors as part of a larger point-of-sale terminal procurement for student nutrition services (due March 23, 2026) and an ITQ for 42 10-inch Poseidon Celeron tablets with integrated displays (due April 15, 2026). Valencia College District in Florida issued RFP 2026-26 on April 6, 2026 (due April 30, 2026) for classroom and conference room technology services spanning 900 rooms across nine campuses, with historical annual spending of $1.6 million and annual room upgrades of 50-75 units, specifying wall or ceiling-mounted projectors and touch control panels among display components. The Washington Military Department posted RFP26-012 on June 15, 2026 (due July 30, 2026) for a statewide Computer Aided Dispatch system connecting five counties, with estimated contract value of $3 million to $4.8 million over five years plus two optional extensions.
