UNSPSC 10317931: Fresh cut goianum hippeastrum

Fresh cut bloom of the goianum variety of hippeastrum

UNSPSC 10317931 Fresh cut goianum hippeastrum is a Commodity code that appears to span ornamental cut flowers and related horticultural products, though recent state and local procurement activity tagged to this code does not align with the specific commodity name. The recent opportunities posted under this code reflect broader plant and floral procurement across multiple issuing-body types — education service centers managing cooperative purchasing vehicles, county parks departments, city procurement offices, and regional purchasing cooperatives. The scope of actual buying ranges from general educational supplies and materials through cooperative frameworks to specialized landscape and grounds maintenance including hanging flower baskets and cut-plant inventory.

Recent activity shows solicitations from a Texas education service center, Los Alamos County Parks and Recreation in New Mexico (RFP26-55 for hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance with proposals due June 4, 2026), and the City of Dallas (IFS 215260 for plant purchase, due February 3, 2026). A significant multi-year cooperative purchasing vehicle, Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (EDACT2628), posted on June 15, 2026 with proposals due July 30, 2026, encompasses educational activities and supplies with an estimated two-year expenditure of $40.677 billion. Geographic spread reflects Texas activity (Region 7 Cooperative, City of Dallas) and New Mexico (Los Alamos County), with the cooperative vehicle likely serving a broader multi-state network. The mismatch between the specific commodity name (fresh cut goianum hippeastrum) and the actual recent solicitations (general plants, educational supplies, landscape maintenance) suggests this code classification may not accurately reflect current state and local procurement needs or that the code is being applied broadly across horticultural and botanical products beyond the narrow commodity definition.
