UNSPSC 10151915: Chachacoma seed or seedlings

Seed of a common species in the central and south highlands of Peru.

UNSPSC 10151915 Chachacoma seed or seedlings is a Commodity code covering the procurement of native seed stock for land restoration, prairie reconstruction, and habitat management by state and local environmental and conservation agencies. State and local governments buy under this code primarily through blanket supply contracts and competitive bids for bulk native grass and forb seeds—including primary species such as Big Bluestem, Little Bluestem, Switchgrass, Indian Grass, and forbs such as Purple Prairie Clover and Butterfly Milkweed—packaged in bags not exceeding fifty pounds and delivered on an as-needed basis with no guaranteed minimum or maximum quantities. Issuing bodies include state wildlife and forestry agencies, county conservation districts, and municipal parks departments, with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department appearing as a repeat buyer for native prairie seed blanket contracts.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, where the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department issued two overlapping IFBs for native prairie seeds in August and September 2026 with response dates of August 12 and September 15, 2026 respectively, each covering approximately fifty native species on a one-year contract with optional twelve-month renewal and fourteen-day delivery windows to designated regional offices; the Texas A&M Forest Service posted IFB-27-005 for East Texas Seeds on October 15, 2026 with a bid due date of October 30, 2026. A Dane County, Wisconsin procurement in May 2026 (RFB2026043PR, due June 2, 2026) diverges from active-procurement activity—it was a surplus seed sale for cream gentian conducted in conjunction with Mattoon Village rather than a standard procurement of active seed stock. Vendors should note that TPWD blanket contracts require FOB destination pricing with all shipping and handling included, acceptance inspection within five working days of delivery, and price escalation tied to the Producer Price Index with sixty business days binding bid response periods.
