UNSPSC 10161520: Acalypha bush

Type of shrub known as acalypha bush

UNSPSC 10161520 Acalypha bush, a Commodity code, shows limited recent procurement activity among state and local governments, with the posted opportunities reflecting broader grounds maintenance and landscaping work rather than purchases of acalypha plants specifically. State and local buyers under this code include school districts, municipal public works departments, and county commissioners, typically issuing landscape and grounds maintenance contracts through ITB and RFP processes. The scope of work captured in recent solicitations spans landscape installation, irrigation system design and construction, grounds mowing and trimming, and related site preparation—activities that may incorporate ornamental plantings such as acalypha but are not itemized as discrete plant purchases in the posted notices.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Texas. Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa issued ITB 26246ITBMST on September 28, 2026, for landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair services across school facilities, with bids due August 5, 2026 and Addendum 1 issued July 21, 2026; the district encourages small business and minority-owned business participation through its Office of Supplier Development. The City of Arlington, Texas posted RFP 270016 on September 3, 2026, for annual grounds maintenance covering mowing, trimming, edging, and litter removal across city-owned properties, with proposals due October 1, 2026. Pasco County, Florida issued IFB IFBKM27004 on September 2, 2026, for median landscape and irrigation construction Phase II along 9 miles of Little Road, with bids due October 6, 2026. A Philadelphia micro purchase for holiday wreaths (solicitation B2727768, maximum contract value $45,000) and a DeKalb County, Georgia ITB for tennis center IT infrastructure reconstruction appear tangential to acalypha procurement and do not reflect relevant market activity for this commodity code.
