UNSPSC 60102607: Attribute blocks activity cards

UNSPSC 60102607 Attribute blocks activity cards is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to buy teaching and instructional materials, supplies, equipment, and services across a broad range of educational settings — including general classroom instruction materials, special education supplies, STEM and robotics kits, Montessori classroom materials, therapeutic supplies such as play therapy kits, and early-childhood educational resources. Recent solicitations show school districts and education-focused agencies sourcing curriculum programs, manipulatives, technology equipment, adaptive devices for students with disabilities, and licensed educational content through a mix of RFPs, RFQs, and ITBs structured either as single-award contracts or as blanket-discount catalog agreements with indefinite delivery terms. Issuing bodies span large independent school districts (Katy ISD in Texas, Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida), smaller school districts operating through purchasing cooperatives (Cartwright Elementary School District No. 83 leading the Strategic Alliance for Volume Expenditures consortium serving multiple Arizona jurisdictions), state agencies procuring on behalf of supported living centers and early-childhood programs, city governments supplying libraries and recreation departments, and higher education institutions. Many awards are made to multiple vendors to ensure comprehensive product selection and mitigate availability risks.

Activity under the code concentrates in Texas, Florida, Arizona, Georgia, and the District of Columbia, with recent competitive procurements posted across February through July 2026. Representative current opportunities include Katy ISD's RFP #2428KD-A (posted July 10, 2026, response due May 29, 2026) for teaching and instructional materials spanning English, mathematics, science, special education, and ROTC supplies across multiple campuses; Hillsborough County Public Schools' ITB 26126ITQEST for Montessori classroom supplies and materials (posted April 13, 2026, due April 10, 2026) seeking 310 line items at firm fixed unit costs with a maximum 15 percent markup; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017649 for habilitation consumables and adaptive communication devices at Richmond State Supported Living Center (posted July 2, 2026, due July 17, 2026) with Texas-vendor preference and HUB subcontracting encouragement; and the Cartwright Elementary/SAVE cooperative's RFP 260331 for STEM and College & Career Readiness kits and materials (posted May 21, 2026, due June 8, 2026) serving multiple Arizona school districts with estimated annual usage of $1.346 million across participating members. The District of Columbia Office of the State Superintendent of Education has posted multiple RFQs for play therapy kits with DCSS-vendor-only and CBE-preference restrictions. Contract terms typically span one to three years with renewable one-year options, pricing is firm and fixed or submitted as percentage discounts off catalogs, and evaluation often weights vendor experience, product quality, cost, and delivery capability equally.
