UNSPSC 10317422: Fresh cut red waxflower

Fresh cut bloom of the red variety of waxflowers

UNSPSC 10317422 Fresh cut red waxflower is a Commodity code that shows minimal activity aligned with its nominal scope in recent state and local procurement. The four most recent opportunities posted under this code span educational supplies, IT infrastructure reconstruction, hanging flower basket design and maintenance, and general plant purchases—only the latter two bear any relation to floral or horticultural goods. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under the code include school district cooperatives (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), county governments (DeKalb County, Georgia and Los Alamos County, New Mexico), and municipalities (City of Dallas, Texas). The mismatch between the code's name and actual solicitations suggests the code may be overused or misapplied for broad procurement categories that include but are not limited to cut flowers.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and New Mexico. The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative posted EDACT2628 on June 15, 2026 (proposals due July 30, 2026) for educational activities and supplies under a cooperative purchasing vehicle with estimated expenditures of $40.677 billion over two years; Los Alamos County issued RFP26-55 on May 7, 2026 (proposals due June 4, 2026) for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets with multi-year contract terms and weighted evaluation on qualifications, references, design, and cost; and the City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation (IFS 215260) on January 28, 2026 (bids due February 3, 2026) for general plant purchases with FOB delivery to Dallas and a requirement for new, unopened items in original packaging. Only the Los Alamos and Dallas solicitations represent genuine horticultural procurement; the majority of posted activity under this code reflects miscoding or use of the code as a catch-all category.
