UNSPSC 60102717: Pentominoes

UNSPSC 60102717 Pentominoes is a Commodity code. State and local governments soliciting under this code are actually buying instructional and therapeutic materials, supplies, and equipment that support early learning, special education, behavioral health, and STEM workforce development—not pentominoes as puzzle games, but educational products and manipulatives embedded within broader teaching-materials frameworks. Recent opportunities show school districts, state health and human services agencies, and education-focused nonprofits issuing RFPs and RFQs for comprehensive instructional catalogs that include communication aids, adaptive devices, curriculum kits, Montessori materials, play therapy supplies, and robotics equipment. Katy Independent School District in Texas has posted supplemental RFP 2428KD-A for teaching and instructional materials spanning general instruction, special education, assistive technology, and miscellaneous items including robotics supplies, with a contract term through October 2027 and options to renew annually through 2030. The District of Columbia Office of the State Superintendent of Education issued RFQ-OSSE-HW-FY26 for play therapy kits restricted to DCSS vendors only, due July 16, 2026. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted two overlapping IFBs—HHS0017649 and HHS0017594—for habilitation consumables and adaptive communication devices (Enabling Devices products) for Richmond State Supported Living Center, with responses due July 17 and July 15, 2026 respectively, each structured as blanket purchase orders with Texas-vendor and service-disabled veteran preferences where qualified.

Activity clusters heavily in Texas and Florida, with secondary activity in Arizona, Georgia, and the District of Columbia. Issuing bodies include independent school districts (Katy ISD, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Cartwright Elementary School District, Child Care Associates), state agencies (Texas HHSC, District of Columbia OSSE), higher-education institutions (Savannah State University), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (SAVE consortium, Purchasing Cooperative of America).
