UNSPSC 52161539: Combination digital video disc DVD video cassette disc VCD compact disc CD player

UNSPSC 52161539 Combination digital video disc DVD video cassette disc VCD compact disc CD player is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure video and optical media playback equipment and related audio-visual technology. Recent solicitations show the code tagged to law enforcement equipment frameworks, instructional material catalogs, technology equipment and software catalogs, and video monitoring system maintenance—a scope mismatch that signals the code sees little direct procurement activity aligned with its nominal product definition. The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunity block include Sourcewell (a Minnesota cooperative), Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas, the School District of Manatee County in Florida, and the City of Charlotte in North Carolina; the pattern reflects cooperative purchasing vehicles and school districts more than standalone county or city procurement offices.

Activity under this code appears scattered across Texas, Florida, and North Carolina, with one multi-state cooperative framework (Sourcewell) spanning Washington state and beyond. The most recent directly relevant opportunity is the City of Charlotte / Charlotte Area Transit System RFP #269-2026-1988, issued February 12, 2026, due March 12, 2026, for cameras and access controls maintenance across 50 transit facilities—a procurement for video monitoring system support rather than disc playback equipment itself. The School District of Manatee County RFP for technology equipment, software, and services (due March 24, 2026) and Region 7 cooperative catalog discount bids (ICAT2223 and ICAT2426, with dates in 2022 and 2024 respectively) are tagged to the code but address broader technology and instructional supply categories. The code's narrow product definition—standalone media players—does not align with the scope of state and local opportunities currently posted under it, suggesting limited active procurement demand for dedicated disc-playback hardware at the state and local level.
