UNSPSC 10402362: Dried cut orchestra rose

Dried cut bloom of the orchestra variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402362 Dried cut orchestra rose is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its nominal scope. The two recent opportunities tagged under this code show a significant mismatch: Pinellas County's environmental planting and wetland monitoring RFP solicits native plant installation, invasive species removal, and ecological restoration services across mitigation sites and wetlands; Columbus Consolidated Government's arts and craft supplies RFB seeks general hobby and recreational items for parks and recreation programming. Neither opportunity involves the procurement of dried cut orchid roses—a floral product typically associated with event décor, floral arrangements, or horticultural supply chains. The code appears underutilized or incorrectly tagged by issuing bodies, suggesting that state and local governments pursuing dried florals or specialty cut flowers may use broader commodity codes or do not currently solicit this product line at scale.

Solicitation activity is scattered across different issuing-body types and geographies with no clear pattern of repeat buyers or concentrated demand under this code. Pinellas County, Florida issued an environmental services RFP (due July 29, 2025) for a five-year contract with SBE set-asides; Columbus Consolidated Government, Georgia issued an arts and craft supplies RFB (due February 25, 2026) with an expected annual volume of thirty to fifty thousand dollars. These two opportunities reflect the geographic and functional spread of the mislabeled activity rather than a coherent market for dried cut orchid roses. No evidence supports meaningful state or local procurement activity targeting this Commodity code for its intended product category.
