UNSPSC 60103204: Algebra models or accessories

UNSPSC 60103204 Algebra models or accessories is a Commodity code covering hands-on mathematical manipulatives, learning aids, and classroom equipment for foundational and advanced algebra instruction. State and local procurement under this code centers on school districts acquiring tangible teaching tools—base-ten blocks, algebra tiles, geometric models, equation balancing systems, and comparable products—integrated into mathematics curricula at elementary through secondary levels. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, though the recent-opportunities block shows broader educational procurement extending to state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, District of Columbia Office of the State Superintendent of Education, Oregon Department of the State Fire Marshal) and county governments. Hillsborough County Public Schools, the nation's seventh-largest district serving approximately 225,000 students, remains a standout repeat buyer, soliciting comprehensive classroom supply packages including mathematics manipulatives and task cards under ITQ 26126ITQEST (response deadline April 10, 2026). Katy Independent School District in Harris County, Texas has issued multiple supplemental RFPs for teaching and instructional materials encompassing mathematics supplies and equipment (RFP 2428KD-A, response deadline May 29, 2026), and Cartwright Elementary School District No. 83 in Arizona coordinated a multi-jurisdictional RFP through the SAVE cooperative vehicle seeking STEM and College & Career Readiness Kits and Materials (RFP260331, response deadline June 8, 2026).

Recent activity concentrates in Florida, Texas, and Arizona, with secondary opportunities in Oregon, New York (Rockland County), and the District of Columbia. Hillsborough County Public Schools' ITQ for Montessori supplies (26126ITQEST, ITQ, April 10, 2026 deadline) names 310 line items across Upper Elementary and Primary classroom packages with 15 percent maximum markup and one-year firm pricing; Katy ISD's RFP 2428KD-A solicits teaching materials across English Language Arts, Mathematics, Reading, Science, and Arts & Crafts with evaluation weighted 30 percent on price, 25 percent on vendor reputation and quality; Cartwright's multi-district STEM RFP (RFP260331, June 8, 2026 deadline) projects estimated annual usage of $1.346 million across fifteen participating districts with individual district estimates ranging from $10,000 to $350,000 and scores award based on 190 points for related work experience, 190 points for personnel qualifications, 190 points for offered products, and 200 points for cost. No set-asides or disadvantaged-enterprise designations appear in these opportunities; standard Texas vendor preferences and HUB subcontracting plans are encouraged but not required where applicable.
