UNSPSC 45111602: Projection lamps

UNSPSC 45111602 Projection lamps is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure classroom projectors, projection equipment, and related audiovisual systems for educational facilities. Recent solicitations show school districts purchasing projectors alongside installation, removal, and repair services as bundled offerings, rather than lamps as standalone consumables. The code also appears to capture general electrical equipment and law enforcement lighting apparatus through broader categorical procurement vehicles. Issuing bodies are primarily large independent school districts, with secondary activity through cooperative purchasing arrangements that aggregate demand across multiple county and state jurisdictions. School districts are consolidating prior fragmented contracts into indefinite-quantity and requirements contracts to establish sustained vendor relationships and streamline procurement cycles.

Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas issued the most recent representative opportunity: RFP2026072 for Classroom Projectors and AV Equipment with procurement, installation, removal, and repair services, due August 6, 2026, consolidating two expired prior contracts and requiring all incumbent and new vendors to re-bid or lose future business with the district. A second NISD solicitation, IFB2026098 for Electrical Equipment, Parts, Supplies, Rentals, Repairs & Services, was posted June 8, 2026 with a July 1, 2026 bid deadline and similarly mandated vendor re-competition. Sourcewell, a Minnesota-based cooperative purchasing vehicle, posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of participating counties in Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) and public entities nationwide, with proposals due June 16, 2026. Texas and Washington show the most recent documented activity under this code, though the law-enforcement solicitation's relevance to projection lamps specifically remains unclear from the available documentation.
