UNSPSC 30241505: Cupola

A rigid structure on which the rooftop canvas sections of a tent can be laced or attached. It is mainly used for lifting and acts as an anchor point for the tent's roof canvas.

UNSPSC 30241505 Cupola, a Commodity code, describes portable and modular building structures that state and local governments procure for temporary or semi-permanent administrative, operational, and support facilities—including prefabricated office trailers, modular classrooms, portable connex units, and shoot house training systems. The issuing bodies are predominantly cities, counties, school districts, and state agencies (transportation departments, juvenile justice systems, water authorities) across multiple states, with no single repeat buyer dominating the recent activity. The scope spans single-unit procurements for small portable offices through large cooperative purchasing vehicle offerings; representative work includes design-build delivery and installation, site preparation, utility connections, interior finishes (restrooms, break rooms, offices, lockers), HVAC and electrical systems, skirting, and weatherproofing. Georgia, Texas, and Florida account for the densest recent activity, with additional procurement by Michigan school districts and Mississippi school districts.

Geographic concentration appears heaviest in the South and Southwest. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Flowery Branch, Georgia's June 2026 ITB for delivery and installation of a 24' x 60' modular Public Works office building (bids due July 23, 2026) at approximately $250,000 or above based on bonding thresholds; the Texas Juvenile Justice Department's June 2026 ITB for a 72-by-56-foot office building with site work at its Gainesville facility (bids due July 14, 2026); the Texas Department of Transportation's August 2026 IFB for a portable office building at Fort Davis Maintenance Facility on an emergency resolicitation basis (bids due August 26, 2026); the City of Tampa's June 2026 RFQ for a single 10'x10' portable office connex unit at McKay Bay Solid Waste facility; and Harris County Department of Education's June 2026 Job Order Contracting competitive sealed proposal for modular buildings and related items (proposals due June 16, 2026) through its Choice Partners cooperative purchasing vehicle with a maximum annual aggregate contract price of $200 million across all CP members. Preferences for Texas-sourced goods, USA-produced supplies, and environmentally sensitive products appear in multiple Texas procurements; set-asides and disadvantaged-enterprise restrictions are absent from the recent opportunities reviewed.
