UNSPSC 54111709: Watch or clock repair kits

This commodity provides tools necessary to repair watches or clocks.

UNSPSC 54111709 Watch or clock repair kits is a Commodity code covering specialized timepiece maintenance, repair, and assistive devices procured by state and local governments for institutional and municipal applications. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing two distinct categories of work under this code: tower clock maintenance and repair services at municipal facilities, and specialized vibrating alarm watches designed for accessibility in custodial settings. The City of Philadelphia's micro purchase for tower clock maintenance and repair at City Hall exemplifies the first category, structured as a requirements contract with no minimum purchase obligation and pricing capped at $45,000 annually, adjusted by CPI-U. The Illinois Department of Corrections' three-year contract for multiple alarm vibrating watches demonstrates the second, procuring timepieces with specific accessibility features—minimum five vibrating alarms, multiple band sizes, waterproof ratings, and countdown timers—for deaf and hard of hearing individuals in custody. Issuing bodies under this code include municipal procurement offices and state correctional agencies. The Philadelphia solicitation targets local or certified business entities through the PHLContracts eProcurement platform; the Illinois procurement follows state IFB procedures through BidBuy with no small business set-aside, though bidders may claim Illinois Business Preference or Domestic Product Preference.

Geographic activity spans at least Pennsylvania and Illinois based on recent postings. The Philadelphia RFQ closed October 6, 2026, and the Illinois Department of Corrections IFB closed May 21, 2026. The Illinois procurement requires product samples prepaid and submitted separately prior to bid opening, with initial delivery of 800 watches within 60 days of award and bi-annual shipments thereafter, F.O.B. destination to Springfield. Vendors must maintain General Commercial Liability insurance of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 annual aggregate. The code shows limited recent activity; no additional state or local opportunities appear in the source beyond these two solicitations.
