UNSPSC 27112033: Garden tool set

An assortment of small tools used in gardening that are sold together.

UNSPSC 27112033 Garden tool set is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure hand tools, grounds maintenance equipment, and related supplies for operational and campus support. Recent solicitations reveal that this code captures diverse purchasing activity — from individual hand tool micro-purchases to larger grounds equipment contracts serving multi-campus districts. The City of Philadelphia issued a micro purchase RFQ (B2626809) for hand tools with a $43,000 annual cap and a response date of April 14, 2026, while Collin County Community College District posted an ITB (FY2024ITB037) for grounds equipment, parts, and supplies spanning 41 line items including hand-held maintenance equipment, tractors, mowers, and irrigation supplies across ten campuses, with an estimated annual expenditure of $48,000 and a bid response date of July 10, 2024. Issuing bodies under this code include city procurement offices, community college districts, and transit authorities. Vendors typically must provide competitive pricing off manufacturer's list prices, maintain insurance coverage (liability and workers' compensation), and in some cases establish local business presence within defined geographic radii.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in Texas, Florida, and the mid-Atlantic, with cooperative purchasing vehicles expanding reach across multiple states. The Collin County Community College District opportunity is located in Texas and required vendors to maintain a physical presence within 75 miles of the college; the Philadelphia micro purchase indicates mid-Atlantic activity; and the Jacksonville Transportation Authority's ITB (ITBNO24011) for bus wash blowers, while not strictly a garden tool solicitation, was posted April 9, 2026 with a response date of September 27, 2024. A Sourcewell cooperative purchasing RFP (#061626) for law enforcement equipment, posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response date, involved Washington state counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) but appears misaligned with the garden tool code scope. Recent opportunities show modest individual contract values ($43,000 to $48,000 annually) and suggest that pursuit depends on vendor capability to meet insurance, pricing-discount, and local-presence requirements rather than on broad market momentum.
