UNSPSC 45111604: Slide projectors

UNSPSC 45111604 Slide projectors is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of classroom and conference-room projection equipment bundled with installation, maintenance, and repair services. School districts and colleges are the primary buyers, soliciting both equipment purchases and full-service integration contracts that include system design, programming, control-panel setup, and ongoing technical support. The scope extends beyond the projector itself to encompass AV equipment ecosystems — interactive document cameras, display surfaces, audio systems, wireless capabilities, control interfaces, and equipment cabinets — all integrated into turnkey classroom and conference-room technology solutions. Service components typically include same-day or next-day response for repairs, remote and on-site technical support, warranty coverage, and equipment storage.

Recent activity centers on Texas and Florida. Northside Independent School District (NISD) in San Antonio posted RFP2026072 on July 14, 2026, with proposals due August 6, 2026, seeking an indefinite-quantity contract for classroom projectors, AV equipment, procurement, installation, removal, and repair services; the RFP consolidates two expired contracts and requires all incumbent vendors to resubmit. Valencia College District in Florida issued RFP 2026-26 on April 6, 2026, closing April 30, 2026, for college-wide classroom and conference-room technology services across nine campuses and approximately 900 rooms, with anticipated annual spending near $1.6 million and a three-year initial term with optional two-year extensions. A Sourcewell cooperative-purchasing RFP (#061626) posted May 12, 2026, due June 16, 2026, tags law enforcement equipment but does not align with classroom projection scope. School districts and higher-education institutions drive the core opportunity set under this code, with contract structures favoring established integrators capable of system design, manufacturer partnerships, and dedicated support staffing.
