UNSPSC 60104902: Electrostatic apparatus

UNSPSC 60104902 Electrostatic apparatus is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code overwhelmingly concern educational materials, supplies, and services for K-12 school districts, including classroom instruction materials, science supplies, STEM kits, technology services, and general school merchandise — none of which constitute electrostatic equipment in the conventional sense. School districts across Texas, Georgia, and Florida are issuing catalog-discount RFPs and RFQs for bundled instructional resources rather than specialized electrostatic devices, suggesting either broad misclassification in state procurement systems or an idiosyncratic interpretation of the code within the educational sector.

The issuing bodies are predominantly independent school districts (Katy ISD and Donna ISD in Texas, Cobb County and DeKalb County in Georgia, Seminole County and Valencia College in Florida, Cartwright Elementary School District in Arizona, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia), with no state department, county, or municipal activity appearing in the recent record. Representative opportunities include Katy ISD's RFP 2428KD-A for teaching and instructional materials across multiple disciplines (due May 29, 2026), Cobb County School District's IFB B26128 for science specimens and chemicals (due June 16, 2026), and DeKalb County School District's RFQ 26-724 for comprehensive K-12 science instructional resources (due March 12, 2026). The geographic spread centers on the Southeast and Southwest, with active solicitations in Texas, Georgia, Florida, and Arizona. The code shows no genuine recent activity in electrostatic apparatus procurement; firms pursuing this classification should verify with individual issuing bodies whether they intend to solicit actual electrostatic equipment before investing in bid preparation.
