UNSPSC 10302235: Fresh cut sirocco rose

Fresh cut bloom of the sirocco variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302235 Fresh cut sirocco rose is a Commodity code that nominally addresses floral products but shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its scope. Of the five recent opportunities tagged under this code, only one—Los Alamos County's RFP26-55 for hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance—involves live plants and floral materials; the others concern landscape maintenance services, school district educational supplies, and IT infrastructure, none of which represent fresh cut flowers or sirocco roses. The Los Alamos solicitation is the only representative example of actual work performed under the code's intended commodity scope, requesting design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging baskets across the town site with contractor-supplied plant material, drip irrigation oversight, and seasonal replacement guarantees. The contractor must hold a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and manage plants to specified design and quality standards, with plants failing within ten days of installation replaced at contractor expense.

Los Alamos County, a municipality in New Mexico, is the sole issuing body in the recent opportunities block pursuing work aligned with the code's nominal scope. The RFP26-55 procurement is based in the Southwest and carries a June 4, 2026 proposal due date with evaluation weighted toward Qualifications and Experience (35 points), Design and Maintenance Solution (35 points), References (10 points), and Cost Proposal (20 points); the estimated award date is July 14, 2026. Los Alamos County offers preferences under state law for Local, New Mexico Resident, Native American Resident, Veteran, and Native American Veteran Business classifications. The mismatch between the code name and four of five tagged opportunities suggests either miscoding in the source data or that state and local procurement offices inconsistently apply commodity taxonomy to floral and landscape services—a signal that pursuing opportunities under this code requires close verification of actual scope at posting rather than reliance on code designation alone.
