UNSPSC 45111618: Presentation light boxes

UNSPSC 45111618 Presentation light boxes (Commodity) names display and audio-visual equipment that state and local governments procure for classrooms, meeting rooms, courtrooms, event spaces, and public assembly facilities. In practice, state and local buying under this code spans classroom projectors and interactive panels, LED video walls, audio-visual system integration and installation, assistive listening devices, sound reinforcement systems, control infrastructure, and related support and maintenance services—often bundled as turnkey installations or ongoing service contracts rather than standalone light boxes.

Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include school districts (Northside Independent School District in San Antonio; Cobb County Schools in Georgia; Jones County Schools in Georgia; Walled Lake Consolidated in Michigan; Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida; Cleveland Metropolitan School District in Ohio; Valencia College in Florida), county governments (Wake County, North Carolina; Gwinnett County, Georgia; DeKalb County Schools, Georgia; Monroe County, Florida), city governments (Arlington, Texas; Santa Monica, California; Orlando, Florida; College Park, Georgia; St. Marys, Georgia; New Haven, Connecticut), university systems (University of Texas at Austin; Texas A&M University System; University of Wisconsin-Green Bay), special districts (New Smyrna Beach Utilities Commission, Florida; Volusia County, Florida), and state and regional agencies (Railroad Commission of Texas; Atlanta Regional Commission; Los Angeles Court). School districts and municipal government IT or procurement offices represent the bulk of recent issuing bodies, with repeat activity from Texas school districts and Florida higher education and county systems. Geographic concentration appears heaviest in Texas, Georgia, Florida, and Michigan, with scattered activity across California, North Carolina, Connecticut, and the Pacific Northwest.

Representative recent opportunities include Northside Independent School District's RFP for classroom projectors, AV equipment, installation, removal, and repair services (due August 6, 2026); the City of Arlington's RFP for LED video walls for council chambers and briefing rooms (due August 20, 2026); the City of Santa Monica's RFP for citywide audio-visual systems integration, maintenance, and support services with prevailing wage requirements and five-year term (due August 3, 2026); the Railroad Commission of Texas's IFB for live audio-visual broadcasting for commission meetings and town halls (due July 15, 2026); the Texas A&M University System's RFQ for AV integrator services across multiple campuses on a master services agreement basis (due June 23, 2026); and the City of St. Marys, Georgia's RFP for audio-visual services for new council chambers and municipal court with ADA compliance and streaming capability (due July 17, 2026). Evaluation weighting across these opportunities emphasizes experience and technical competence (typically 20–35 points), cost (15–40 points), and quality of solution or understanding of needs (10–25 points), with prevailing wage, insurance, E-Verify, and subcontracting-plan compliance appearing as mandatory or pass-fail gates in public and higher education procurements.
