UNSPSC 82141602: Article display arrangement

UNSPSC 82141602 Article display arrangement is a Commodity code that encompasses design, fabrication, and installation of interpretive and educational exhibits, displays, wayfinding systems, and associated furnishings for public facilities. State and local governments soliciting under this code procure complete exhibit packages—from conceptual design through physical installation—for museums, nature centers, state parks, transit facilities, airport holdrooms, and educational institutions. The work spans interpretive signage and thematic displays documenting history or natural resources, digital and interactive elements, artwork and decorative installations themed to institutional missions, furniture and fixtures integrated into display environments, and environmental graphics. Issuing bodies include state departments (DNR, universities, cultural agencies), county and municipal recreation and parks departments, airport commissions, school districts, and special-purpose authorities. Universities and state park systems appear as repeat buyers; recent solicitations from Michigan DNR, Georgia Highlands College, Georgia Southern University, and the University of Texas at Austin signal active procurement by higher-education and cultural institutions. Texas A&M University System and Texas state agencies also appear multiple times across the recent activity block.

Geographic concentration is heaviest in Texas, Georgia, and Florida, with secondary activity in Michigan, Kansas, and Arizona. Representative recent opportunities include the School Board of Hillsborough County, Florida's sole-source procurement (notice 26180SSDEST, due May 14, 2026) for Virtual Enterprises International curriculum and platform services—a niche educational exhibit scope; Sarasota County's RFP (262895KR, due September 8, 2026) for interpretive exhibit design, fabrication, and installation at Lemon Bay Park Environmental Center; the Savannah Airport Commission's RFP 2026-0025 (due September 15, 2026) for holdroom interior design, furnishing, and installation services covering approximately 1,808.70 square feet of gate area; Georgia Southern University's RFP (53900ERFQ0020042027, due October 6, 2026) for lighting display design, furnishing, installation, and maintenance across campus; and the University of Texas at Austin's RFP (72126103, due October 9, 2026) for McDonald Observatory exhibit work spanning display materials, interior design, and exhibition management. Michigan DNR's two award recommendations—FireWatch Design for Ludington Beach House ($210,702.50) and Graphite Design + Build for Carl T. Johnson ($287,530)—demonstrate pricing typical of mid-scale institutional exhibit work. Most solicitations are RFP or RFQ vehicles with three- to twelve-week response windows; evaluation commonly weights qualifications and relevant experience heavily, with cost as a secondary factor.
