UNSPSC 45111610: Epidiascopes

UNSPSC 45111610 Epidiascopes is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity encompasses classroom projectors, audiovisual equipment, and related installation and repair services rather than standalone optical projection devices. State and local governments soliciting under this code include independent school districts and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple jurisdictions. The scope of work reflects bundled service delivery: procuring projectors and AV systems, installing equipment at district facilities, removing legacy systems, and providing ongoing repair and maintenance support. Vendors responding to opportunities under this code typically submit fixed pricing for equipment alongside labor rates for installation, removal, and field service work.

Northside Independent School District (NISD) in San Antonio, Texas issued RFP 2026072 in July 2026 seeking an indefinite quantity contract for classroom projectors, AV equipment procurement, installation, removal, and repair services, with sealed bids due August 6, 2026; this contract consolidated and replaced two expired district contracts and required all incumbent vendors to resubmit proposals to continue business. Sourcewell, a Minnesota-based cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued RFP 061626 in May 2026 for law enforcement equipment available to participating entities across multiple states including Washington counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, Yakima) and jurisdictions nationwide, with proposals due June 16, 2026—though the law enforcement equipment solicitation appears tangential to the epidiascopes code's classroom technology focus. Recent activity under this code centers on Texas school districts and reflects the consolidation trend among education procurement offices moving bundled AV and installation services into single indefinite quantity contracts.
