UNSPSC 10402628: Dried cut tibet rose

Dried cut bloom of the tibet variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402628 Dried cut tibet rose is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single product line—preserved or desiccated rose flowers—but recent state and local solicitations show little activity aligned with that narrow scope. The two recent opportunities posted under this code reflect a mismatch: Pinellas County's environmental planting and monitoring RFP centers on native plant installation, invasive species removal, and wetland restoration services across a five-year contract period, while Columbus Consolidated Government's arts and craft supplies RFB seeks general recreational and hobby items for parks departments on an as-needed annual basis. Neither opportunity involves procurement of dried cut roses or products materially similar to them. The code appears underutilized or misclassified in state and local procurement systems for its nominal commodity scope.

Activity under this code is sparse and geographically scattered. The two recent opportunities originate from Florida (Pinellas County) and Georgia (Columbus), with no repeat buyers evident in the current record. The Pinellas County RFP, released June 30, 2025, with proposals due July 29, 2025, targets environmental services including native plant installation, invasive plant removal, and compliance monitoring at wetlands and stormwater sites, with SBE participation provisions and a $100,000 work assignment threshold. The Columbus RFB No. 26-0014, posted February 4, 2026, with bids due February 25, 2026, seeks arts and craft and recreational supplies supporting parks and recreation divisions at an estimated annual volume of $30,000 to $50,000 across multiple vendors over a two-year initial term with three optional one-year renewals. Neither opportunity reflects genuine demand for the dried cut tibet rose product itself, suggesting this code may warrant reclassification or that state and local procurement offices are using it as a catch-all for botanical or decorative goods without precise category alignment.
