UNSPSC 43221522: Teleconference equipment

Equipment used in hosting and serving teleconferencing capabilities through a conference bridge.

UNSPSC 43221522 Teleconference equipment (Commodity) encompasses classroom projectors, LED video walls, audio-visual systems integration, live broadcast infrastructure, and video conferencing equipment that state and local governments procure for meetings, training, public engagement, and facility operations. Recent solicitations show school districts, cities, counties, transit authorities, and specialized state agencies buying complete AV system deployments—including hardware procurement, installation, integration, maintenance, and support—rather than equipment alone. Northside Independent School District (San Antonio) issued an indefinite quantity contract for classroom projectors and AV equipment with installation and repair services (RFP 2026072, due August 6, 2026); the City of Santa Monica seeks comprehensive AV systems integration, maintenance, and support services across citywide facilities under a five-year firm-fixed contract with prevailing wage requirements and California contractor licensing mandates (RFP 2026RFP00034, due August 3, 2026); and the Railroad Commission of Texas is soliciting live webcast and on-demand video delivery for approximately 29 annual state meetings and hearings (IFB #455-26-1030, due July 15, 2026). Issuing bodies span school districts (Northside ISD, Fulton County Schools, Valencia College District), municipal governments (San Antonio, Santa Monica, Arlington, Detroit, St. Marys, Charlotte, Philadelphia), state agencies (Railroad Commission of Texas, Nevada State Contractors Board), counties (Volusia, Marion, Harris, Wake, Collin), transit authorities (Charlotte Area Transit System), and regional commissions (Atlanta Regional Commission). The work typically integrates Crestron control systems, Genetec video management platforms, Microsoft Teams or Zoom connectivity, and commercial-grade equipment from manufacturers including Panasonic, Sony, Axis, Barco, and Elmo.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas (San Antonio, Austin, Harris County, Collin County), Florida (Volusia County, Orlando area), California (Santa Monica), Georgia (Atlanta, Fulton County), North Carolina (Wake County, Charlotte), and scattered across other states including Nevada, Oregon, and Arizona. The City of Detroit Police Department seeks design, procurement, and three-year maintenance of Planar LED video wall systems at two public safety facilities with CJIS clearance requirements and 24/7/365 support (RFP 546753, due July 23, 2026); Wake County's Information Technology Department is upgrading the County Commissioners' meeting control room with Crestron infrastructure and network components delivered FOB Destination (IFB #26-037, due March 31, 2026); and Valencia College District is seeking comprehensive classroom and conference room technology services across nine campus locations, averaging $1.6 million annually in spending over five years, with a three-year initial term plus two optional one-year renewals (RFP 2026-26, due April 30, 2026). Prevailing wage requirements appear in Santa Monica and some California procurements; many solicitations mandate pre-bid or pre-proposal meetings, site visits, and proof of comparable project experience (minimum three to five years for most vendors). Set-asides include Community Business Enterprise (CBE) designations in District of Columbia procurements and DBE encouragement or goals in transit and federal-funded contracts.
