UNSPSC 45131601: Motion picture camera film

UNSPSC 45131601 Motion picture camera film is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity encompasses the supply of movie licenses and related film content for public programming. The code sees solicitation activity primarily from cities and counties procuring film exhibition rights and related motion picture assets to support public recreation, aquatics, and community programming. State and local issuing bodies treating motion picture film procurement under this code include municipal parks and recreation departments as well as cooperative purchasing entities operating on behalf of multiple jurisdictions, suggesting the code captures both direct municipality buys and multi-entity framework arrangements.

The City of Dallas, through its Office of Procurement Services, issued an IFB (Solicitation IFSPKRB1800456) on April 24, 2026 with a response deadline of April 30, 2026 to purchase movie licenses for screening nine films across nine aquatic facility locations during summer 2026 programming, including titles such as Transformers, Lilo and Stitch, The SpongeBob Movie, Zootopia, and Hocus Pocus, with delivery required to a specific Dallas address and all items priced FOB delivery site. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, issued an RFP (061626) posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline to establish a contracting solution for law enforcement equipment available to thousands of governmental entities across the United States and Canada, though this opportunity appears tangential to the motion picture film code's core scope. Recent activity concentrates in Texas and the Upper Midwest; the geographic spread and frequency of opportunities remain limited.
