UNSPSC 10322300: Fresh cut baptisias

Fresh cut blooms of baptisias

UNSPSC 10322300 Fresh cut baptisias is a Class code that nominally covers fresh-cut baptisia flowers, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show minimal alignment with ornamental cut flowers and instead span broader horticultural and landscape services. The scope of work actually being solicited includes design, installation, and ongoing maintenance of hanging flower baskets for municipal streetscapes, bulk plant procurement for city use, and educational supplies catalog discounts through cooperative purchasing vehicles. Issuing bodies span city procurement offices (City of Dallas), county parks and recreation divisions (Los Alamos County), county innovation and technology departments (DeKalb County), and regional education service centers operating cooperative purchasing agreements (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). The code sees activity from municipal, county, and regional special-purpose educational purchasing entities rather than a concentrated set of repeat buyers.

Recent opportunities include Los Alamos County's RFP26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across the town site, due June 4, 2026, with a weighted evaluation emphasizing qualifications (35 points), design and maintenance solutions (35 points), references (10 points), and cost (20 points); the City of Dallas's informal solicitation for plant purchases (IFS 215260), due February 3, 2026, requiring new, unopened merchandise FOB delivery to Dallas; and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's EDACT2628 catalog discount bid for educational activities and supplies, due July 30, 2026, with an estimated total expenditure of $40.677 billion over two years serving multiple school districts. Geographic activity centers in Texas (Dallas, Region 7 service area) and New Mexico (Los Alamos County), with secondary activity in Georgia (DeKalb County). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the recent opportunities suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or that the code has been adapted to capture ornamental plant procurement more broadly; vendors should verify current code usage with specific jurisdictions before pursuing opportunities under this classification.
