UNSPSC 10362042: Fresh cut phalaenopsis mysorensis orchid

Fresh cut bloom of the mysorensis variety of phalaenopsis orchid

UNSPSC 10362042 Fresh cut phalaenopsis mysorensis orchid is a Commodity code whose nominal scope diverges sharply from recent state and local activity actually tagged under it. The four recent opportunities posted under this code include a $40.677 billion two-year education cooperative purchasing agreement for educational activities and supplies, a DeKalb County, Georgia ITB for IT and low-voltage infrastructure at a tennis center reconstruction, a Los Alamos County, New Mexico RFP for the design, installation, and maintenance of 144 hanging flower baskets on town streets, and a City of Dallas informal solicitation for general plant purchases. Only the Los Alamos hanging-baskets procurement and the Dallas plant-purchase IFS bear any clear connection to horticultural products or fresh florals; the education cooperative and the Georgia IT infrastructure work show no relationship to the orchid code whatsoever. The issuing-body mix spans a regional education service center cooperative (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), a county government (DeKalb County, Georgia), a county parks division (Los Alamos County, New Mexico), and a city government (City of Dallas, Texas).

The code shows activity across Texas, Georgia, and New Mexico, though the geographic spread appears driven by coding mismatches rather than genuine market concentration. The Los Alamos RFP for hanging flower baskets, posted May 7, 2026 with a June 4, 2026 proposal deadline, calls for nursery-dealer-licensed contractors to supply, install, and maintain baskets with fresh plant material annually; the contractor bears the cost of replacement for plants failing within ten days of installation, and the County offers local, state resident, Native American, and veteran business preferences under New Mexico procurement code. The City of Dallas plant-purchase IFS, posted January 28, 2026 with a February 3, 2026 deadline, required new, unopened plants in original packaging with FOB delivery to a Dallas address and a one-year replacement warranty; no specific budget or incumbent vendor is disclosed. The Education Cooperative opportunity and the DeKalb County IT solicitation appear to be miscoded and do not reflect activity genuinely aligned with fresh-cut orchid procurement.
