UNSPSC 45111607: Overhead projectors

UNSPSC 45111607 Overhead projectors is a Commodity code that covers the procurement, installation, removal, and repair of classroom and educational presentation equipment, including projectors and associated audiovisual systems. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily school districts acquiring classroom projectors alongside installation and maintenance services to support teaching infrastructure; the scope extends beyond equipment supply to encompass system integration, removal of legacy hardware, and ongoing technical support. Issuing bodies are predominantly independent school districts and regional cooperative purchasing organizations that consolidate demand across multiple jurisdictions to achieve volume pricing and standardized contracting terms.

Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas posted RFP 2026072 on July 14, 2026, with a sealed-bid deadline of August 6, 2026, for an indefinite quantity contract consolidating classroom projector procurement, installation, removal, and repair services; the District explicitly required all incumbent vendors to respond to the new RFP or lose business continuation rights, replacing two prior contracts that expired in mid-2025 and September 2026. A second recent opportunity, Sourcewell RFP #061626 posted May 12, 2026, with a June 16, 2026 deadline, addresses law enforcement equipment through a cooperative purchasing vehicle serving participating entities across Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties) and broader public sector buyers, though the alignment between law enforcement equipment procurement and overhead projector taxonomy suggests potential mismatch in code assignment. Geographic activity is concentrated in Texas school systems and intermittently in multi-state cooperative purchasing arrangements.
