UNSPSC 83111803: Television antenna construction or rental services

UNSPSC 83111803 Television antenna construction or rental services is a Commodity code that covers telecommunications tower infrastructure services including construction, inspection, maintenance, repair, and ground leasing for antenna and tower systems. State and local governments soliciting under this code are acquiring tower-related services tied to municipal communications, emergency services, and broadcast infrastructure, though recent opportunities show the code applied inconsistently across heterogeneous infrastructure work.

The issuing bodies are geographically distributed across the South and West, with standout repeat activity from Orange County, Florida and Broward County, Florida on infrastructure projects; other recent solicitations come from the Town of Tyrone, Georgia, the Consolidated Government of Columbus, Georgia, and Oregon's Department of Aviation and Military Department. Representative opportunities include the Town of Tyrone's ground lease solicitation for a telecommunications tower at 145 Commerce Drive, Tyrone, Georgia (RFP with July 27, 2026 deadline, 60-percent weighting on pricing terms); Orange County, Florida's sealed bid for bridge and corrections facility construction projects (July 7 and July 21, 2026 deadlines, estimated values $6.2 million and $7 million respectively); and the City of Phoenix's communication tower inspection, maintenance, and repair services contract (IFB, April 3, 2026 deadline, five-year term). However, the recent opportunities block shows limited activity directly aligned with the code's nominal scope—most solicitations are for roadway, water/sewer, bridge, and facility construction that incidentally mention tower or antenna work rather than tower services as the primary deliverable. The code appears underutilized or misapplied in these recent postings, signaling either low state and local procurement velocity under this specific UNSPSC or consistent tagging misalignment between the code and actual work being bought.
