UNSPSC 10402844: Dried cut nikita spray rose

Dried cut bloom of the nikita spray variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402844 Dried cut nikita spray rose is a Commodity code that nominally classifies preserved floral materials, yet the sole recent state and local opportunity posted under it involves landscape maintenance services rather than dried flowers. Fulton County, Georgia solicited an ITB for quarterly maintenance and operational support of the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden, a 0.95-acre pollinator and rain garden facility, with services spanning native plant pruning, mulching, irrigation system management, pressure washing, seasonal plantings, and habitat enhancements including bat boxes and bird houses. The scope requires a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and demonstration of water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat expertise. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being procured suggests that this Commodity code sees little relevant activity in state and local procurement under its primary classification.

The single recent opportunity originated from Fulton County, Georgia, with an ITB notice (26ITB1652296A-KM) posted October 16, 2026, and bids due November 30, 2026. A pre-bid conference is scheduled for November 4, with a recommended site visit on November 10. The contract runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals contingent on Board of Commissioners approval. Insurance requirements include Workers Compensation, Commercial General Liability (minimum $1 million per occurrence), Business Automobile Liability, Umbrella Liability, and Professional E&O Liability. Award criteria emphasize price, responsiveness, responsibility (including bidder experience, technical qualifications, and past performance), and compliance with Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act and E-Verify. Certified MBE and FBE firms represent 34.71% and 11.45% availability, respectively, in the applicable construction work category.
