UNSPSC 11121615: Poplar wood

Populus is a genus of trees which includes the cottonwoods, poplars, and aspens, all of which are sometimes termed poplars (in some areas "popple").

UNSPSC 11121615 Poplar wood is a Commodity code that encompasses procurement of lumber and wood building materials by state and local governments for facility maintenance, construction support, and departmental operations. State and local buyers under this code source pressure-treated lumber, framing materials, plywood sheathing, wood trim, and related fasteners for general construction and maintenance work. Issuing bodies include state universities (Texas A&M University), county departments of transportation and general services (Gwinnett County, Georgia), and municipal procurement offices (City of Dallas). These entities typically establish standing master agreements or indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contracts to support recurring demand across multiple internal departments and field operations, supplemented by informal written quotations for smaller, immediate needs.

Recent activity spans Texas, Georgia, and multi-state cooperative purchasing frameworks. Texas A&M University's Division of Finance Procurement Services posted an ITB (TEEXITB26081) on July 15, 2026 for a TEEX Master Order to Provide Lumber with a July 29, 2026 deadline. Gwinnett County Financial Services issued an Informal Written Quotation (IWQ 06092026) on June 11, 2026 requesting wood and building materials including pressure-treated pine lumber, SPF framing, and plywood with a June 18, 2026 quote deadline, with delivery to the Department of Transportation in Lawrenceville, Georgia. The City of Dallas posted a competitive bid solicitation (BR2600030114) on April 2, 2026 for a five-year ID/IQ master agreement covering Building Materials, Lumber, and Accessories across all city departments, with pricing structured as a fixed percentage discount or markup off vendor list price and a 7.99 percent Small Business Enterprise participation goal. Delivery time, responsive inventory management, and compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and local ethics ordinances are common evaluation factors.
