UNSPSC 44111901: Planning boards or accessories

UNSPSC 44111901 Planning boards or accessories, a Commodity code, describes office supplies and presentation equipment that state and local governments procure for operational and administrative use. Recent activity under the code splits between two distinct product classes: whiteboards, corkboards, and fabric bulletin boards for general office and classroom environments, and increasingly, software-based planning and dispatch systems that replace or augment physical planning boards in mission-critical operations. The City of Philadelphia has issued multiple micro purchases for traditional whiteboard and bulletin board equipment, while the Michigan State Police recently posted an RFP for a Software-as-a-Service Computer Aided Dispatch solution—a digital planning platform that handles real-time operational workflows, integration with existing systems, and security-critical data governance. The code sees solicitation activity from city procurement offices and state law-enforcement agencies, with the issuing bodies reflecting both routine office-supply procurement and specialized operational-support systems.

The most recent opportunities cluster in Michigan and Pennsylvania. The Michigan State Police RFP for Computer Aided Dispatch (Solicitation REQ0010583, due November 12, 2026) targets a full SaaS platform addressing solution capabilities, technical architecture, security compliance, and implementation support; no contract value is stated. The City of Philadelphia issued two overlapping micro purchases for whiteboards and bulletin boards (Solicitation B2727981, due September 14, 2026, and B2727957, also due September 14, 2026), each with an estimated contract value not exceeding $45,000 adjusted annually by CPI-U, awarded as a whole or by line item to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder under LBE and voluntary LGBTBE disclosure requirements. Both Philadelphia solicitations required quotes on an FOB Destination basis with 60-day price validity.
