UNSPSC 90151501: Museums

UNSPSC 90151501 Museums is a Commodity code that encompasses design, fabrication, installation, and curation services for museum exhibits, public art installations, and cultural programming—work state and local governments solicit to support educational facilities, cultural centers, and community art initiatives. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing interactive museum exhibit fabrication with integrated digital and audio-visual systems; large-scale public art commissions in tile, bronze, and mural media; curatorial and acquisition services for permanent collections; and educational arts programming and cultural enrichment services. The issuing bodies span state departments and agencies (Michigan State Police, Texas Department of Public Safety, Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum, Texas Tech University System), county governments (Harris County Precinct 1, Hillsborough County, Palm Beach County), cities (Fairburn, Union City, Lawrenceville, Dunwoody), independent school districts (Dallas ISD, Fort Bend ISD), and higher-education institutions (Savannah State University). School districts appear frequently, soliciting both instructional arts materials and cultural experiences programming under Title 2 CFR Part 200 compliance regimes.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, and Georgia, with secondary activity in Illinois and California. Representative opportunities include Hillsborough County's $800,000 sealed proposal for interactive display exhibits at the Veterans Memorial Park Education and Cultural Center (RFP2600320, proposals due August 6, 2026); the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum's bid for Citizen City Children's exhibit fabrication and installation carrying a 23 percent Business Enterprise Program set-aside (IFB 26506ALPLMALPLMB53162, bids due August 17, 2026 with mandatory pre-bid July 23, 2026); Palm Beach County's Call to Artists for tile-based public art at Aqua Crest Aquatic Complex with a 5-point local preference and $348,000 fixed budget (RFP41020190232721, shortlist applications due October 19, 2026); Dallas ISD's RFP for cultural experiences, literacy, and arts production services on a district-wide, as-needed basis (SW250353, proposals due September 10, 2026); Fort Bend ISD's RFP for out-of-school time enrichment programs serving Pre-K through 8th grade across 30 campuses (27008LB, proposals due November 10, 2026); and the City of Fairburn and City of Union City's IFB for public outdoor art mural design and installation under the CSX Underpass (IFB 26-020, bids due August 25, 2026). Michigan State Police recently solicited Computer Aided Dispatch solution proposals (REQ0010583, due November 12, 2026), though this opportunity is unrelated to the Museums code's core scope. The code shows active procurement across interactive technology integration, community-facing public art, and educational programming, with multi-year contracts and renewal options common.
