UNSPSC 10402017: Dried cut long arifa rose

Dried cut bloom of the long arifa variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402017 Dried cut long arifa rose is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code — Fulton County, Georgia's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for landscape maintenance services at the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden — involves horticultural labor, mulch application, irrigation system maintenance, and seasonal plantings rather than procurement of dried cut flowers. The scope includes quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens, selective pruning of native plants, weeding and debris removal, mulch and pine straw application, pressure washing, integrated pest management, irrigation system startup and shutdown with valve and head adjustment, installation of bat boxes and bird houses, and site walkthroughs with inventory and action planning. The contractor must employ a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and demonstrate knowledge of water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards, furnishing all labor, materials, and equipment.

Fulton County, Georgia remains the only issuing body with a recent posting under this code. The ITB closed on November 30, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on November 4 and a recommended site visit on November 10 to assess the 0.95-acre scope. The contract runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals subject to Board of Commissioners approval. Award goes to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; MBE availability for this construction work category is 34.71% and FBE availability is 11.45%. The code's nominal scope — dried cut flowers — does not align with the actual work being solicited, suggesting either a tagging error or minimal recent procurement of dried cut arifa roses at the state and local level.
