UNSPSC 52161607: Vinyl record storage device

A type of device used to store, organize and protect vinyl records. It can be designed for a 7 inch disc or a 12-inch disc.

UNSPSC 52161607 Vinyl record storage device is a Commodity code that sees little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes physical storage solutions for vinyl records, but state and local buyers soliciting under this classification are overwhelmingly procuring audiovisual systems integration, installation, repair, and support services—equipment ranging from classroom projectors and interactive flat panels to concert hall audio systems, courtroom assisted listening systems, and live event production. The mismatch between the code name and actual buying patterns suggests this code may be misapplied in agency procurement systems or carries a legacy classification that no longer reflects current acquisition intent. Recent opportunities instead cluster around comprehensive AV system design, procurement, installation, maintenance, and technical support across educational facilities, municipal meeting spaces, courthouses, performing arts venues, and emergency operations centers, typically bundled with cabling infrastructure, system integration, programming, and warranty services on multi-year terms.

The issuing bodies span school districts (Northside Independent School District in Texas, Cobb County and Fulton County Schools in Georgia, Walled Lake and Van Dyke districts in Michigan, Hillsborough County Schools in Florida, Jones County Schools in Georgia, Valencia College in Florida), city and county governments (City of Arlington, City of Santa Monica, City of Orlando, City of St. Marys Georgia, Wake County North Carolina, Gwinnett County Georgia, New Smyrna Beach Utilities Commission Florida), universities (University of Texas at Austin, University of Wisconsin-Green Bay), regional commissions (Atlanta Regional Commission), and state agencies (Railroad Commission of Texas, State of California). Recent representative opportunities include Northside Independent School District's RFP2026072 for classroom projectors and AV equipment procurement, installation, and repair services with an August 6, 2026 deadline; the City of Arlington's solicitation (260265) for LED video walls with an August 20, 2026 response date; the City of Santa Monica's 2026RFP00034 for citywide AV systems integration, maintenance, and support across conference rooms, due August 3, 2026; and the Railroad Commission of Texas's IFB 455-26-1030 for live audio-visual broadcasting services for approximately 29 meetings annually, due July 15, 2026. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Florida, California, Michigan, and the Northeast, with scattered activity in the Midwest and Pacific regions. The code shows active procurement across the summer of 2026 but limited decision-relevance to vendors seeking actual vinyl record storage opportunities.
