UNSPSC 46171513: Locking cam

UNSPSC 46171513 Locking cam, a Commodity code, reflects state and local government procurement of specialized lock components and hardware systems—ranging from individual locking elements to facility-wide master key systems serving detention facilities, mental health centers, school districts, transit authorities, and municipal departments. Recent solicitations show demand for anti-ligature locks, combination locks with key override, RFID access hardware, padlocks, mortise locks, exit devices, and integrated key management systems. Issuing bodies span state departments (Illinois Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, California), county governments (Pinellas County School District, Harris County, Marion County, Volusia County), municipalities (City of Phoenix, City of Dallas, City of Philadelphia, City of Tampa, City of Salem), and specialized authorities (District of Columbia Department of Transportation, University of Wisconsin system facilities). The code sees activity across multiple jurisdictions with no single dominant buyer; Texas, Florida, California, Illinois, and Arizona show recent concentration of activity, with scattered postings across the Pacific Northwest and Mid-Atlantic.

Representative opportunities include Harris County's June 2026 ITB for approximately 150 ASSA Mogul cylinder replacements at juvenile detention facilities with one-year term and four renewal options; the City of Phoenix's May 2026 IFB for comprehensive commercial locksmith products and services across all city facilities on a five-year term requiring Arizona licensure, 24/7 emergency response, and manufacturer-standard compliance; Texas Health and Human Services Commission's June 2026 IFB for locks and locksmith supplies serving San Antonio State Hospital and State Supported Living Center with unit pricing for eighteen line items including storeroom, entry, padlock, mortise, and anti-ligature variants; and the District of Columbia Department of Transportation's dual solicitations (May and July 2026) for fleet capital asset management key systems serving eight locations. Pricing structures vary: some solicitations use firm fixed-price with markup controls (Philadelphia's 5 percent parts-cost markup), others employ percentage discounts from manufacturer's list prices (Pinellas County School District, Volusia County), and service contracts often blend hourly labor rates with parts costs. Set-aside activity includes SBE/MBE scoring in Dallas (up to 13 points), MBE initiative fees in Illinois, and local business entity preferences in Philadelphia. Contract terms typically run one to three years with optional renewals; sole-source procurements appear for proprietary systems (Marion County's MEDECO keyway, Oregon Military Department's DormaKaba 790 RFID). Response timelines compress heavily in this category—several opportunities posted in spring 2026 carried five- to ten-day response windows, signaling either standing-requirement replenishment or urgent facility needs.
