UNSPSC 45111722: Cassette deck

Audio equipment that may reproduce the recorded sound or records the audio by using the cassette tape.

UNSPSC 45111722 Cassette deck is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement activity recently recorded under it. The recent-opportunities block contains no requests for cassette decks or cassette-related equipment. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code overwhelmingly document state and local solicitations for modern audio-visual integration, system design, and conferencing technology — including wireless microphone systems, digital signal processors, projection systems, video conferencing infrastructure, live-streaming and recording equipment, courtroom and council-chamber upgrades, and stadium sound reinforcement. This systematic mismatch indicates either a cataloging error in how opportunities were tagged to the code or a fundamental shift in what state and local governments actually procure under this nominal commodity classification.

The issuing bodies span city governments (Holly Hill, Dahlonega, Arlington, Orlando, Tybee Island, College Park, St. Marys), county governments (Volusia, Collin, Glynn, Wake, Gwinnett, Crisp, Marion), independent school districts (Fort Bend, Clarkston, Northside, Center Line, Walled Lake, Fulton, Dallas, City Colleges of Chicago), higher-education institutions (Auraria Higher Education Center, University of Wisconsin–Green Bay, Texas A&M System), state and regional authorities (Railroad Commission of Texas, Georgia World Congress Center Authority, Atlanta Regional Commission, Central Health), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (TIPS, Cooperative Purchasing Agency). Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, Georgia, Texas, Michigan, and Colorado, with smaller pockets in California, Illinois, North Carolina, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Holly Hill, Florida seeking Commission Chambers audio and video system upgrades (sealed proposals, due February 11, 2026), the City of Dahlonega, Georgia requesting Council Chambers A/V upgrades (RFP, due October 23, 2026), Fort Bend Independent School District seeking athletics audio and visual equipment (proposals, due November 16, 2026), Volusia County designing and furnishing Emergency Operations Center A/V infrastructure (RFP, due January 29, 2026), and the City of Orlando upgrading the Camping World Stadium main bowl sound system (RFP, due August 10, 2026, with a Veteran Business Enterprise preference).
