UNSPSC 81161711: Videoconferencing service

A service involving the support of videoconferencing activity.

UNSPSC 81161711 Videoconferencing service is a Commodity code covering the design, installation, maintenance, and support of audio-visual systems and live-streaming infrastructure for government facilities, conference rooms, and public meetings. State and local governments soliciting under this code are procuring comprehensive AV integration services—from hardware supply and system design through installation, configuration, and ongoing support—rather than standalone videoconferencing licenses or software subscriptions. Recent solicitations span school districts (Northside Independent School District classroom projector and AV equipment IDQ in San Antonio, Texas; Fulton County Schools in Georgia seeking AV equipment, software, and support services), municipal and county governments (City of Arlington LED video walls for council chambers; City of Santa Monica citywide AV systems integration across conference rooms and event spaces; Wake County Justice Center AV equipment upgrade for county commissioners' meeting rooms; Volusia County Emergency Operations Center AV and IT system upgrades; City of Detroit Planar LED video walls for police department crime centers), transit authorities (City of Charlotte/CATS camera and access control system maintenance across 50 transit facilities), and state agencies (California Department of Fish and Wildlife videoconferencing services for Fish and Game Commission meetings; Railroad Commission of Texas live webcast and archived video delivery). The issuing bodies mix state-level agencies, counties, cities, independent school districts, and transit authorities. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas (NISD San Antonio, Harris County RFI for AI-powered camera monitoring, Arlington, Railroad Commission Austin), Georgia (Fulton County Schools, Atlanta Regional Commission event production AV, Georgia World Congress Center), Florida (Santa Monica, Valencia College district-wide classroom and conference room technology services, New Smyrna Beach Utilities Commission DeBerry Conference Room system, Volusia County EOC), California (state Department of Fish and Wildlife), and the Carolinas (Wake County North Carolina, Charlotte/CATS North Carolina), with additional activity in Nevada, Michigan, and Maryland.
