UNSPSC 60121143: Display board

UNSPSC 60121143 Display board is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure digital output and finishing services—primarily large-format color plotting, direct-to-surface printing, laminating, custom cutting, routing, mounting, and custom fabrication to support internal communications, water education, and interagency presentation needs. The California Department of Water Resources has posted two sequential RFPs under this code in summer 2026, both seeking five-year contracts for digital output and finishing services to support the Governor's Office, Natural Resources Agency, and other state clients. The scope requires in-house equipment including large-format inkjet plotters with UV ink capability, color laser printers, laminators, flatbed plotters, routers, and vinyl cutters, plus Adobe Creative Cloud and current Microsoft Windows or Macintosh operating systems. Service delivery is time-sensitive—all work must be completed within 16 business hours of order placement, including pickup and delivery to DWR headquarters at no charge, aligned to standard business hours Monday through Friday.

Recent activity concentrates in California, specifically Sacramento. The California Department of Water Resources issued RFP Primary 10219621 with proposals due August 10, 2026, requiring a minimum 3 percent Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) participation commitment and DVBE preferences in Phase Four evaluation before cost consideration; that RFP was followed by RFP Primary 10221453 with proposals due September 2, 2026, offering a 5 percent small business preference and voluntary DVBE incentives of 1–5 percent. Both RFPs require the contractor's facility to be located within 30 miles of DWR Headquarters at 715 P Street, Sacramento, demand three years of full-time commercial operation in California, and employ a four-phase evaluation process beginning with administrative compliance review, advancing through a quality sample assignment (90-point minimum to pass), on-site facility inspection (90-point minimum), and sealed cost proposal. Proposers must provide six references from design or architectural firms with at least $3,000 in prior service volume. Failure to include the completed sample assignment results in rejection.
