UNSPSC 10423700: Dried cut eryngiums

Dried cut blooms of eryngiums

UNSPSC 10423700 Dried cut eryngiums is a Class code that nominally describes preserved plant material, but recent state and local solicitations show little activity aligned with the code's literal scope. The two opportunities posted under this code in the past six months do not reflect procurement of dried eryngiums or dried cut flowers. Instead, Pinellas County's environmental services RFP seeks native plant installation, invasive species removal, wetland monitoring, and ecological restoration across multiple sites including McMullen Booth Stormwater Pond and Eagle Lake Park, requiring State Certified Licensed Public Applicator and Aquatic Category 5A certifications. Columbus Consolidated Government's RFB No. 26-0014 solicits arts and craft, hobby, and recreational supplies for the Parks and Recreation Department on an as-needed basis, with an estimated annual volume of $30,000 to $50,000. These opportunities represent a mismatch between the UNSPSC code designation and the actual services being procured.

The issuing bodies are a Florida county (Pinellas) and a Georgia municipal government (Columbus). Geographically, recent activity appears in Florida and Georgia only. Pinellas County issued an RFP on February 26, 2026, with a proposal deadline of July 29, 2025 (note: the due date predates the posting date, suggesting a data error or carryover from prior-year solicitation language), structured as a five-year contract from 2025 to 2030 with as-needed ordering and SBE set-aside provisions capped at $100,000 per work assignment. Columbus Consolidated Government issued an RFB on February 4, 2026, with bids due February 25, 2026, for a two-year term with three optional renewal periods and multi-vendor award authority. The code shows no clear recent procurement of dried cut eryngiums in state and local markets.
