UNSPSC 30161710: Laminate flooring

UNSPSC 30161710 Laminate flooring is a Commodity code that in practice covers the removal and installation of sheet flooring materials — carpet, vinyl composition tile (VCT), and similar floor coverings — in state and local facilities. The California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) posted IFB S25BMO009 in February 2026 for carpet and vinyl flooring removal and installation across 15 suite areas at its Oakland office, with an $800,000 budget and a mandatory pre-bid site inspection on March 5, 2026. Contractors must hold active California licensure as either an A-General Engineering Contractor or C-15 Flooring and Floor Covering Contractor, comply with prevailing wage requirements as public works, and provide proof of active licensing with their bid. The work encompasses removal of existing materials across spaces ranging from 783 to 20,498 square feet and installation of specified new carpet and VCT, with all labor, materials, tools, equipment, and disposal furnished by the contractor. A 1% to 5% DVBE incentive applies for evaluation purposes based on the level of Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise participation, and a Payment Bond equal to 100% of contract value is required for bids exceeding $25,000.

The recent opportunity reflects activity in California, where DIR is executing a new procurement with no incumbent contractor. The electronic bid submission deadline is March 27, 2026, at 5:00 PM, with bid opening March 30, 2026, at 10:00 AM via Microsoft Teams and a Notice of Intent to Award posted for five business days beginning April 3, 2026. The estimated contract start is May 1, 2026, with a six-month term. Bidders may request written questions by March 12, 2026, at 5:00 PM, with DIR posting responses by March 20, 2026. An additional contingency allowance not to exceed $15,000 is available pending DIR approval for unforeseen materials.
