UNSPSC 43221717: Pager access equipment

Pager access equipment receive and transmit signals in the VHF,UHF or VHF/UHF range.

UNSPSC 43221717 Pager access equipment (Commodity) encompasses radio communication equipment and systems for emergency responders, law enforcement, and public transit operations, with recent opportunities extending well beyond traditional pagers to include vehicle-mounted communication systems, in-building radio frequency infrastructure, and coordinated wireless services for state agency networks. State and local governments are procuring two-way radio systems, distributed antenna systems, Motorola mobile and portable radios, emergency responder radio coverage systems, vehicle communication and navigation platforms, and integrated wireless infrastructure supporting 911 dispatch, emergency services, and fleet operations. School districts, county sheriffs' offices, state information resource departments, and cities are the primary issuing bodies, with repeat activity from Santa Clara County and multi-jurisdictional cooperative purchasing vehicles.

Activity spans Florida, California, Texas, and Washington, with the most recent solicitations reflecting operational breadth. The School Board of Hillsborough County, Florida issued an ITQ (due June 3, 2026) for inspection, installation, and repair services across vehicle camera, GPS, radio, and communication systems serving approximately 225,000 students, requiring three years' prior experience and firm pricing for one year. The City of Phoenix issued an IFB (due July 10, 2026) for a five-year turnkey emergency responder radio coverage system using bi-directional amplifiers and distributed antenna systems, subject to DBE-Neutral compliance and requiring NICET-certified personnel. Santa Clara County issued back-to-back RFQs for Motorola radios and accessories to the Office of the Sheriff (June 17 and July 24, 2026). The Texas Department of Information Resources is pursuing an indefinite-quantity, multiple-award contract for cellular, wireless, pager, and satellite services (responses due July 23, 2026), requiring VetHUB subcontracting participation and WCAG accessibility conformance. Sourcewell, acting as a Minnesota local government unit, issued an RFP for law enforcement equipment (due June 16, 2026) spanning multiple Washington state counties and thousands of participating public entities across the United States and Canada through cooperative purchasing.
