UNSPSC 10417312: Dried cut french fiat tulip

Dried cut bloom of the french fiat variety of tulips

UNSPSC 10417312 Dried cut french flat tulip is a Commodity code that in state and local procurement activity appears mislabeled or represents a significant mismatch between the taxonomy designation and actual purchasing need. The single recent opportunity posted under this code is Fulton County, Georgia's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for landscape maintenance services at the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden, due November 30, 2026. The scope covers quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens, including selective pruning of native grasses, trees, shrubs, and perennials; weeding and debris removal; mulch application (pine straw in pollinator areas, uncolored hardwood in rain gardens); pressure washing; seasonal plant color changes; integrated pest management; irrigation system maintenance; and installation of interpretive signage with bat boxes and bird houses. The contract runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals. The contractor must employ a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff, demonstrate water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat knowledge, and provide all labor, materials, and equipment. Award criteria include price, responsiveness, responsibility (bidder experience, technical qualifications, financial capability, past performance), and compliance with Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act and E-Verify; insurance requirements include Workers Compensation, Commercial General Liability of at least $1 million per occurrence, Business Automobile Liability, Umbrella Liability, and Professional E&O Liability.

The code shows minimal recent activity limited to Georgia. Fulton County is the sole issuing body in the available record. A pre-bid conference is scheduled for November 4, 2026, with a recommended site visit on November 10 to assess the 0.95-acre scope. Certified MBE firm availability is listed at 34.71% and FBE firm availability at 11.45% for this construction work category. The mismatch between the code's nominal designation (dried cut french flat tulips) and the actual scope (landscape maintenance services with native plants, irrigation, and habitat installation) suggests either a coding error in the state or local procurement system or that the code does not reflect current state and local buying patterns under this designation.
