UNSPSC 48120000: Gambling or wagering equipment

UNSPSC 48120000 Gambling or wagering equipment, a Family code, encompasses lottery system operations, draw machines, and related gaming infrastructure that state lottery commissions procure to administer games of chance. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying comprehensive lottery platform services—including game systems, ticket management, retailer networks, sales terminals, and operational support—as well as specialized equipment such as certified drawing machines and ball sets that meet precise mechanical and security specifications. The issuing bodies are exclusively state lottery agencies and their administrative departments; the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) and the State of Illinois Department of the Lottery appear as repeat buyers in the most recent opportunities. Work being solicited ranges from large-scale lottery operations contracts spanning multiple years and covering the full breadth of game administration, to discrete equipment procurements for draw hardware and accessories with specific technical and certification requirements.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Illinois. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation issued an RFP on April 28, 2026 (due July 27, 2026) for comprehensive Lottery Operator services through August 31, 2038, encompassing gaming systems, sales and marketing, warehouse and distribution, claims processing, mobile applications, and conversion and implementation services, with a performance bond of $20,000,000 and HUB participation mandatory. The same department issued an IFB on April 27, 2026 (due March 16, 2026) for three Daily 4 Drawing Machines and forty ball sets, proprietary equipment with 120-day delivery, on-site training, and one-year warranty required.
