UNSPSC 10362212: Fresh cut white cymbidium orchid

Fresh cut bloom of the white variety of cymbidium orchids

UNSPSC 10362212 Fresh cut white cymbidium orchid is a Commodity code that encompasses fresh-cut ornamental flowers and related floral materials procured by state and local governments for landscaping, beautification, events, and facility decoration. The recent opportunities posted under this code show a broader scope than the nominal code name alone suggests — state and local buyers are procuring fresh plants, hanging flower baskets with live plant material, and general plant supplies through both individual purchase orders and multi-year cooperative agreements. Issuing bodies include county parks and recreation divisions, city procurement offices, and regional education service centers operating cooperative purchasing vehicles. The work involves vendor selection based on product quality, delivery capability, maintenance standards (where applicable), and pricing — with evaluation criteria frequently emphasizing vendor qualifications, references, and design or horticultural expertise when long-term planting or maintenance is required.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Texas and New Mexico, with the most substantial opportunity originating from Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, which posted EDACT2628 on June 15, 2026 (proposals due July 30, 2026) for educational activities and supplies with estimated total expenditures of $40.677 billion over a two-year contract term. Los Alamos County, New Mexico issued RFP2655 on May 7, 2026 (proposals due June 4, 2026) for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets, with a pre-proposal conference scheduled for May 13, 2026 and contract award anticipated by July 14, 2026; the solicitation requires vendors to hold a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and offers county-level and state-level local-vendor preferences. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation (IFS) 215260 on January 28, 2026 (bids due February 3, 2026) for plants with FOB delivery to a Dallas facility and a one-year warranty requirement. A fourth opportunity, DeKalb County's ITB 2026-076-ITB (posted June 9, 2026, due July 13, 2026), addresses IT and low-voltage infrastructure reconstruction and appears misaligned with the fresh orchid commodity code, suggesting occasional tagging mismatches in state-local databases.
