UNSPSC 10161836: Reticulated grass

Roll-shaped grass made of grass stems between nets

UNSPSC 10161836 Reticulated grass, a Commodity code, encompasses the purchase and installation of specialty turf varieties for athletic fields, parks, and grounds maintenance across state and local jurisdictions. Recent solicitations reveal that state and local governments procure reticulated grass—primarily Tifway 419, Bermuda Celebration, Argentine Bahia, and St. Augustine Floratam varieties—as part of ballfield renovation, practice field construction, landscaping restoration, and general grounds rehabilitation projects. The work spans complete infield renovation (stripping to base grade, laser grading, clay and turf installation), sod replacement following utility repairs, athletic field turnkey reconstruction, and emergency grounds restoration. Issuing bodies include cities (DeBary, Oviedo, Dallas, San Antonio, Ocala, Little Rock, Austin, Savannah), counties (Orange, Collier, Broward, Hillsborough, Fulton, Clayton, Greenville, DeKalb, Dallas, Pinellas), school districts (Royal Oak Schools, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Paulding County), and special-purpose authorities. Hillsborough County Public Schools and Collier County appear as repeat buyers with annual or multi-year sod contracts covering district-wide or county-wide facilities. The City of Dallas, City of San Antonio, and Broward County Parks and Recreation also show active demand for turf-related services.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida (Volusia, Orange, Collier, Hillsborough, Broward, Marion, Pinellas, Sarasota counties and multiple cities), Georgia (Greenville, DeKalb, Clayton, Fulton counties), Texas (Dallas, Collin counties and San Antonio), and scattered activity across Michigan, South Carolina, and Arkansas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of DeBary's Bill Keller Park Infield Renovations (sealed bid, response due April 24, 2018, ~$121,000 for Tifway 419 sod and complete infield reconstruction), Hillsborough County Public Schools' Grass and Sod Services ITB 26293-ITB-MST (sealed bids due August 20, 2026, covering 2,500 to 225,000 square feet annually across 235 schools with multiple sod varieties), Collier County's Sod & Services ITB 268696 (bids due November 9, 2026, ~$1.275 million historical annual expenditure for sand-grown sod varieties across roadway, median, park, and athletic field applications), Royal Oak Schools' RFP for Practice Field Renovations (proposals due October 23, 2026), and Paulding County School District's PCHS Practice Field RFQ (quotes due June 17, 2026, for ~60,000 square feet of Tifway 419 Bermuda sod installation). Most recent solicitations are task-order or annual-contract vehicles with renewal options, reflecting steady state and local demand for turf maintenance and field reconstruction tied to athletic program cycles and facility lifecycle management.
