UNSPSC 10431511: Dried cut sweet pompon chrysanthemum

Dried cut bloom of the sweet variety of pompon chrysanthemum flowers

UNSPSC 10431511 Dried cut sweet pompon chrysanthemum is a Commodity code that designates a specific ornamental flower product, yet the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not reflect purchases of dried cut flowers. Instead, Fulton County, Georgia has posted an ITB for comprehensive landscape maintenance services covering live plantings across pollinator and rain gardens at a demonstration facility. The work encompasses selective pruning of native grasses, trees, shrubs, and perennials; weeding and debris removal; mulch application (pine straw in pollinator gardens, uncolored hardwood mulch in rain gardens); quarterly pressure washing; seasonal plant color changes in garden beds and planters; integrated pest management; irrigation system maintenance including startup, shutdown, filter cleaning, and valve and head adjustment; installation of bat boxes and bird houses with interpretive signage; and quarterly site walkthroughs with inventory and action planning. The contractor must employ a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and demonstrate knowledge of water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards. This represents a significant mismatch between the code's nominal scope (dried cut flower product) and the actual work being solicited under it.

Fulton County, Georgia is the sole recent issuing body appearing under this code. The ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM (Solicitation Number PE66096NONST2026000000219) closes November 30, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on November 4 and a recommended site visit on November 10 for the 0.95-acre scope. Contract term runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals subject to Board of Commissioners approval. Award will go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. MBE and FBE availability for this construction work category is 34.71% and 11.45%, respectively. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal commodity definition; the single opportunity on file reflects landscape services procurement rather than dried cut flower product acquisition.
