Lighting Equipment & Material Supply

The University of Texas at Austin is seeking subcontractors to supply and manage the logistics of seasonal lighting inventory, including bulbs, strings, controllers, mounts, and associated hardware, for installation projects across its campus and related facilities. The contract spans procurement, warehousing, inventory control, and just-in-time delivery to support seasonal lighting needs, requiring vendors to maintain accurate stock levels, ensure product compatibility, and respond promptly to surge demands during installation cycles. All equipment must meet specified technical and safety standards to ensure reliable performance in outdoor and high-traffic environments. Subcontractors must submit proposals by August 17, 2026, under the NAICS code 423690 for other miscellaneous nondurable goods merchant wholesalers. The opportunity is posted on the Texas SmartBuy portal, and vendors are expected to demonstrate proven experience in commercial lighting supply chains, scalable logistics capabilities, and compliance with institutional procurement protocols. While no set-aside provisions are specified, responders must be prepared to align with the university’s operational timelines and quality expectations throughout the contract period.
