UNSPSC 54111706: Watch or clock holders

UNSPSC 54111706 Watch or clock holders, a Commodity code, covers maintenance and repair services for existing timepieces and specialty watches procured by state and local agencies — not the holders themselves, but the servicing and supply contracts tied to clock and watch equipment. Recent solicitations show two distinct work streams: recurring maintenance and repair of facility clocks (particularly municipal clocks in civic buildings) and procurement of specialized watches such as vibrating-alarm timepieces for custody facilities. The City of Philadelphia, the Illinois Department of Corrections, and other municipal and state departments issue RFQ, RFP, and IFB notices under this code. Contracts are typically small-dollar, requirements-based arrangements with no minimum purchase obligation, structured as micro-purchases or multi-year supply agreements. Vendors must carry General Liability and Workers' Compensation insurance and comply with local business certification, nondiscrimination, and ethics requirements.

Activity appears concentrated among state correction departments and municipal public-works or administrative offices. The City of Philadelphia issued RFQ B2728089 for tower clock maintenance and repair at City Hall with a pricing cap of $45,000 and a response deadline of October 6, 2026. The Illinois Department of Corrections posted IFB 26-426DOC-CENTO-B-52217 on May 5, 2026 (due May 21, 2026) for a three-year contract to supply 800 multiple-alarm vibrating watches initially, then bi-annual shipments of 800 watches, with product samples required prepaid prior to bid opening and F.O.B. Destination delivery to Springfield. Recent opportunities are limited; the code shows sparse current activity, with the two identified solicitations spanning divergent product lines (facility clock service versus inmate custody equipment).
