UNSPSC 43232001: Action games

Software games that focus on action and dexterity skills

UNSPSC 43232001 Action games (Commodity) covers video game titles and gaming supplies purchased by state and local educational institutions, public libraries, and corrections departments. Recent solicitations under this code show state and local governments buying commercial video games across console platforms (PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo), gaming board games and card games (poker cards, dominoes, chess, checkers, UNO), and integrated vendor services including cataloging, MARC records, RFID labeling, and inventory management. The issuing bodies are school districts (Katy Independent School District in Texas, Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida, Jackson Public School District in Mississippi), public libraries (City of Fort Worth Library), and corrections facilities (County of Orange Sheriff-Coroner in California). School districts dominate the activity, purchasing instructional materials and supplies that include games as a component of broader educational procurement; the few stand-alone gaming solicitations target library and recreation departments or corrections programming.

Recent opportunities span Texas, Florida, Mississippi, and California. The City of Fort Worth issued RFP 26-0153 on April 8, 2026, for video games and related library services (PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox X, Nintendo Switch formats) with responses due April 30, 2026, emphasizing cataloging capabilities and 85 percent in-stock fulfillment with a 30 percent small business participation goal. The County of Orange, California issued IFB 0603038102-CC on June 22, 2026, for indoor gaming supplies (domino sets, standard poker cards, checkers, chess, pinochle deck cards, and UNO card games) for its Correctional Programs facility, with bids due June 18, 2026, and a five percent preference for County of Orange Local Small Business or Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise certification. Hillsborough County Public Schools issued an Invitation to Bid on February 18, 2026, for Montessori classroom materials via blanket discount pricing off current catalogs, with bids due March 23, 2026. School district procurements often bundle games within broader teaching and instructional materials solicitations rather than as discrete line items, making standalone gaming activity limited relative to the code's nominal scope.
