UNSPSC 60104304: Sun compass

Devices used to identify the solar altitude and seasonal chances through detecting the solar movement. It consists of dumb compass and the transparent hemisphere.

UNSPSC 60104304 Sun compass, a Commodity code, shows no recent relevant state and local procurement activity. The code nominally covers a specialized navigational instrument, yet the recent opportunities tagged under this code are overwhelmingly school district solicitations for teaching and instructional materials, supplies, equipment, and services across broad categories — classroom technology, science specimens and chemicals, STEM educational kits and programs, educational materials with catalog discounts, and classroom supplies. None of these solicitations name sun compasses or equivalent directional instruments as line items or deliverables; the tagging appears to reflect a cataloging mismatch rather than genuine procurement under the code.

The issuing bodies in the dataset are independent school districts, county school districts, and a college district across multiple states, representing the core market for K–12 and higher education instructional procurement. Katy ISD in Texas, Cobb County School District in Georgia, Cartwright Elementary School District in Arizona, and DeKalb County School District in Georgia appear across multiple opportunities. Specific recent opportunities include Katy ISD's RFP 2428KD-A for teaching and instructional materials (response due May 29, 2026), Cobb County School District's IFB B26128 for science supplies (response due June 16, 2026), Cartwright Elementary on behalf of the SAVE consortium's RFP 260331 for STEM and College & Career Readiness Kits (response due June 8, 2026, with estimated annual usage of $1,346,000), and DeKalb County School District's RFQ 26-724 for K–12 Science Instructional Resources (response due March 12, 2026). Geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, and Arizona, with additional procurement in Florida. The mismatch between the code's defined scope and actual recent procurement signals this code is not an active business pursuit opportunity at present.
