UNSPSC 44101724: Multi function upgrades

UNSPSC 44101724 Multi function upgrades is a Commodity code covering the purchase and integration of computing devices—Chromebooks, Dell laptops, desktops, and monitors—along with associated software licensing, Zero-Touch Enrollment, warranty coverage, and accidental damage protection. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily school districts acquiring student and staff computing devices in bulk, along with education-focused licensing and support services that extend device longevity and manage fleet deployment at scale. Issuing bodies are overwhelmingly K-12 school districts, including large urban systems serving over 140,000 students down to mid-sized county systems serving 38 school locations; a higher-education institution (Valencia College District) has also solicited under related technology procurement structures, though that opportunity centers on classroom integration services rather than device supply alone.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia and Florida. Troup County School System posted an RFP on June 4, 2026 for approximately 2,000 to 2,300 student Chromebooks with delivery required by October 1, 2026, weighted heavily on cost (50 points) with secondary emphasis on warranty strength and device longevity through Auto Update Expiration dating. Gwinnett County Public Schools, the largest school system in Georgia, issued a competitive sealed bid on May 7, 2026 for Chromebooks under a demand usage contract effective June 19, 2026 through June 18, 2027 with renewal options to five years total, reserving the right to split awards across multiple vendors. Bibb County School District in Georgia solicited Dell computer quotes on May 7, 2026 for three specific configurations (Pro 16" Plus laptop, Pro 27 Plus Monitor, Pro Max Tower T2 desktop) on an as-needed basis through June 30, 2027 with four one-year renewal options. The School District of Manatee County, Florida established a nonexclusive technology equipment, software, and services catalog discount contract through March 24, 2026, running May 1, 2026 through June 30, 2030 with one optional three-year renewal, explicitly reserving concurrent use of existing Florida Department of Management Services statewide contracts. Activity shows preference for demand-usage and nonexclusive award structures rather than single-vendor commitments, with pricing evaluation as the dominant or co-dominant criterion across all opportunities.
