UNSPSC 60102605: Logic activity or resource books

UNSPSC 60102605 Logic activity or resource books (Commodity) covers printed educational reference materials and instructional resource guides that state and local governments, primarily school districts and education departments, procure to support classroom instruction and student learning. The code captures quick reference guides on pedagogy and classroom management, skill-building textbooks and workbooks for adult learners, family literacy resource packages, and district-wide textbook purchases for K–12 instruction. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code are predominantly school districts and state departments of education. The School Board of Seminole County, Florida has pursued sole-source procurement of ISTE+ASCD quick reference guides covering differentiated instruction and special education topics; the Illinois Department of Corrections has solicited educational textbooks and workbooks to support incarcerated students; and state education departments in Kentucky and Michigan school districts have issued major competitive solicitations for textbook and literacy resource packages. Work ranges from relatively small annual purchases (under $50,000) to large statewide literacy initiatives serving hundreds of thousands of students.

Recent activity spans Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, and Michigan. The Kentucky Department of Education has rebid a comprehensive Family Literacy Resource Solution under RFP 540 2700000005 (proposals due August 27, 2026) targeting 200,000 Kindergarten through Grade 3 students statewide, requiring design, production, packaging, and distribution of decodable books, knowledge-building books, literacy manipulatives, and family instructional guides aligned with the Science of Reading and Kentucky's Read to Succeed Act; the contract term runs November 1, 2026 through June 30, 2028 with a potential two-year renewal. Chippewa Valley Schools in Michigan issued an ITB (ITB 1.2627, bids due June 24, 2026) for district-wide textbook purchases across 18 school buildings, encompassing 2,651 line items and multiple subject-area titles including Connecting Math Concepts, Reading Mastery, and LANGUAGE! Live 2.0, with bid opening and award scheduled for July 13, 2026 and delivery in August 2026. The Illinois Department of Corrections solicited a Basic Ordering Agreement for educational textbooks and workbooks (BOA due August 31, 2026) valued under $50,000 and running through June 30, 2027, with complete delivery required by September 30, 2026 to Springfield.
