UNSPSC 44101807: Pocket calculator

A calculator of small dimensions, usually powered by solar energy that is easy to transport.

UNSPSC 44101807 Pocket calculator is a Commodity code that sees minimal and unrelated recent activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect pocket calculator procurement at all — they span classroom furniture and supplies (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, Texas), law enforcement equipment (Sourcewell on behalf of Washington counties and participating entities nationwide), printing and mailing services (City of Madison, Wisconsin), and canteen resale items including calculators among dozens of other consumer electronics (Missouri Department of Corrections). Only the Missouri Department of Corrections solicitation names calculators as line items within a broad blanket purchase agreement for electronic canteen goods, but that represents a negligible component of a $441,538 annual procurement whose primary focus is consumer electronics and conveniences for offender resale. State and local governments do not appear to conduct dedicated procurement campaigns for pocket calculators as a standalone commodity; the code shows no issuing body treating calculator procurement as its own RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB opportunity.

The geographic spread across the recent opportunities — Texas, Washington, Wisconsin, and Missouri — reflects the broader pattern of unrelated buys rather than a concentrated market for the Commodity itself. The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative opportunity, the largest by value at $21.5 million over two years, addresses classroom supplies where calculators may be included incidentally but are not the named focus. Calculators appear only as one of 36 to 39 line items in the Missouri Department of Corrections IFB (due February 24, 2026) within a much larger electronics bundle. No recent state or local opportunity treats pocket calculator supply as a primary procurement objective. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for dedicated pursuit and monitor it only as a secondary line item within broader office products, classroom supplies, or correctional facility equipment solicitations.
