UNSPSC 10318009: Fresh cut grandiflora rudbeckia

Fresh cut bloom of the grandiflora variety of rudbeckia

UNSPSC 10318009 Fresh cut grandiflora rudbeckia, a Commodity code, tracks procurement of fresh-cut flowering plants used for landscaping, streetscape beautification, and facility decoration by state and local governments. Recent solicitations show that state and local buyers use this code for two distinct purchasing patterns: cooperative purchasing vehicles acquiring discounted educational and facility supplies through multi-year catalog agreements, and direct procurement of fresh plant material and horticultural services for public landscaping projects. The issuing bodies include county education service centers serving school district networks, county governments, and municipal park and recreation departments. Work actually being solicited encompasses hanging flower basket design, installation, and multi-year maintenance contracts requiring vendor nursery licenses and compliance with horticultural specifications; one-time purchases of fresh plant material for delivery to municipal facilities; and participation in broad cooperative purchasing agreements that bundle educational activities, supplies, and related goods at negotiated discounts.

Activity is concentrated in the South and Southwest. Los Alamos County, New Mexico issued RFP 26-55 for hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance across municipal streetscapes with a response deadline of June 4, 2026 and estimated award date of July 14, 2026, with local and resident-business preferences available under New Mexico statute. The City of Dallas issued an informal solicitation (IFS 215260) for purchase of plants in January 2026 with bids due February 3, 2026, FOB delivery to a municipal facility with one-year warranty and no substitutes accepted. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, posted EDACT2628 on June 15, 2026 seeking catalog discount bids on educational and facility supplies with responses due July 30, 2026 and estimated total expenditures of $40.677 billion over the two-year term. A second solicitation posted by DeKalb County, Georgia (ITB 2026-076) appears unrelated to fresh plant material, focusing on IT and low-voltage infrastructure for a tennis facility reconstruction, and does not represent genuine activity under this code.
