UNSPSC 10161804: Lichens

UNSPSC 10161804 Lichens is a Commodity code that nominally covers the procurement of lichen specimens and products, but recent state and local solicitation activity shows no alignment with this taxonomy classification. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—DeKalb County's June 2026 ITB for reconstruction of the DeKalb Tennis Center—is in fact soliciting Information Technology and Low Voltage Infrastructure installation services, including conduit, cabling, pathways, raceways, and testing. This scope bears no relationship to lichen procurement and represents a clear mismatch between the UNSPSC coding assigned and the actual work being bought. State and local procurement offices appear to use this code rarely, if at all, for its intended purpose.

The code shows minimal relevant recent activity. No other state and local opportunities under UNSPSC 10161804 were identified in current solicitation databases. Pursuit of this code for business development purposes is not supported by demonstrated procurement demand among state agencies, counties, cities, school districts, transit authorities, or other local public bodies.
