UNSPSC 10402450: Dried cut red berlin rose

Dried cut bloom of the red berlin variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402450 Dried cut red berlin rose is a Commodity code that nominally describes cut flowers, but the recent state and local solicitation activity under this code shows minimal alignment with that scope. Fulton County, Georgia posted an ITB on October 16, 2026 for landscape maintenance services at the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden — work that centers on quarterly upkeep of pollinator and rain gardens, including selective pruning, mulching, weeding, irrigation system management, pressure washing, and seasonal planting rotations across established native perennials, grasses, and shrubs. The scope requires a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and demonstrated expertise in water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards. This is operational landscape maintenance and grounds preservation, not procurement of dried cut flowers. The mismatch between the code's nominal commodity (dried cut red berlin rose) and the actual work being solicited (landscape grounds maintenance) suggests either a tagging error in the state procurement system or a code application misalignment that limits the utility of this classification for identifying flower or floral product opportunities.

The single recent opportunity identified under this code is Fulton County's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM, due November 30, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on November 4 and a recommended site visit on November 10. The contract runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals subject to Board of Commissioners approval. Award is based on price, responsiveness, and responsibility (bidder experience, technical qualifications, financial capability, past performance). Georgia-specific compliance requirements include the Security and Immigration Compliance Act and E-Verify. Insurance minimums include $1 million Commercial General Liability per occurrence, and a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect must be on staff. MBE availability is listed at 34.71% and FBE availability at 11.45% for the construction work category. Given the sparse recent activity and the code-to-work mismatch, this code does not represent an active procurement stream for florist or cut-flower suppliers.
