UNSPSC 10441509: Dried cut single bloom light pink carnation

Dried cut bloom of the light pink variety of single bloom carnations

UNSPSC 10441509 Dried cut single bloom light pink carnation is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific floral product, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal alignment with that narrow scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Fulton County, Georgia's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden landscape maintenance services, due November 30, 2026—involves comprehensive quarterly grounds upkeep including native plant pruning, mulching, pressure washing, irrigation system maintenance, pollinator and rain garden management, and interpretive signage installation. The work requires a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and demonstrates the county's focus on water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards rather than procurement of dried carnation blooms. The mismatch between the code's nominal product definition and the actual solicitation suggests this code assignment may reflect a data-entry error or miscategorization in the jurisdiction's procurement system.

Fulton County, Georgia is the sole recent issuer identified under this code, with activity concentrated in that single Georgia jurisdiction. The landscape maintenance contract runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals subject to Board of Commissioners approval, and requires demonstration of past performance, financial capability, and technical qualifications. Insurance minimums include $1 million Commercial General Liability per occurrence. The availability of certified MBE firms is 34.71% and FBE firms is 11.45% for this construction work category. Absent additional state and local solicitations tagged to this code that reflect actual dried floral product procurement, this Commodity code appears to see little genuine activity aligned with its stated definition.
