NIGP 23232: Floral Arrangements, Artificial

NIGP 23232 Floral Arrangements, Artificial is an Item code under which state and local governments procure artificial flowers, plants, and related decorative botanical products for indoor and outdoor display, landscaping, and event purposes. The code encompasses silk flowers, faux greenery, artificial plants in containers, and pre-arranged floral displays used across government facilities, parks, memorials, and special events. Issuing bodies range from city parks departments and municipal facilities management to county courthouse and administrative building operations, school districts, transit authorities, and state government offices seeking cost-effective, low-maintenance alternatives to live botanical materials. Purchasing volume under this code tends to be fragmented across many small jurisdictions making routine buy-once or buy-as-needed acquisitions rather than consolidated, high-dollar procurements.

No recent state and local contract opportunities under NIGP 23232 appear in available procurement records as of October 2026. This absence suggests either minimal current demand, procurement handled through existing standing contracts or cooperative purchasing vehicles not yet posted as new RFPs or RFQs, or sourcing through small-dollar purchases below formal competitive-solicitation thresholds at most jurisdictions. Business development professionals should monitor cooperative purchasing catalogs and local government purchasing sites directly rather than rely on posted opportunities to surface activity in this code.
