UNSPSC 30161707: Vinyl flooring

UNSPSC 30161707 Vinyl flooring (Commodity) covers removal and installation of resilient flooring materials—vinyl composition tile (VCT), luxury vinyl tile (LVT), and commercial sheet vinyl—in state and local facilities ranging from schools and administrative offices to housing authority properties. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying flooring removal, substrate preparation to industry standards (CSP-3 concrete profiles, moisture mitigation epoxy systems), material installation with cove base and waterproof caulking, and completed restoration in project-specific colors and patterns. Work typically includes field verification of existing conditions, coordination with site occupancy and closures, provision of attic stock, and compliance with manufacturer specifications and prevailing wage requirements where applicable. Issuing bodies span state departments (California Caltrans, California Department of Industrial Relations, State of Rhode Island), municipalities (City of Meriden, City of South Lake, City of Alameda), school districts (Atlanta Public Schools, Cache County School District, Seminole County School Board), and special-purpose authorities (Alameda Housing Authority). School districts and state facilities represent the dominant buyer segment; repeat issuances appear in California state procurement and across multiple school systems.

Geographic activity concentrates in California (state department and DMV work), Utah (school district and municipal projects), Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, and Rhode Island. Recent representative opportunities include the Housing Authority of the City of Alameda's IFB for water damage restoration including flooring at Independent Plaza (due August 5, 2026), the City of Meriden's ITB for 4,088 square feet of VCT removal and installation at Edison Middle School (due July 15, 2026), the State of Rhode Island's open-enrollment Master Price Agreement (MPA 364) for carpet, tile, wood, and similar products installation and restoration across state agencies and political subdivisions (proposals due June 30, 2030), and the California Department of Industrial Relations' IFB for carpet and LVT removal and installation at San Francisco office space (due February 27, 2026, $450,000 budget). Typical procurement vehicles are IFB and ITB notices with response windows of two to eight weeks; multi-tier master price agreements and cooperative purchasing lists also structure longer-term vendor qualification. Prevailing wage compliance, C-15 flooring contractor licensing, bid bonds, performance bonds, and insurance requirements ($1 million to $5 million general liability) are standard. Small business, minority-owned, women-owned, and disabled veteran business enterprise set-asides and subcontracting goals appear in Connecticut and California procurements.
