UNSPSC 30241700: Tent and membrane structure framing and covering components

Components of tent or membrane structures, such as masts, side poles, struts, or others, that are designed either to support loads or to transmit loads to other parts of the tent or membrane structure. These components are designed to be installed and dismantled repeatedly and to be resistant to weather hazards.

UNSPSC 30241700 Tent and membrane structure framing and covering components is a Class code under which state and local governments procure shade structures, awnings, and canopies for parks, recreation facilities, and municipal operations. Recent solicitations show park departments and municipal agencies buying pre-engineered metal and fabric shade structures, galvalume awnings with aluminum framing, tri-sail shade nets, and similar temporary or semi-permanent coverings for outdoor recreation and facility protection. The issuing bodies span county park departments, city recreation divisions, school districts, and state facility operators; repeat buyers include Broward County Parks and Recreation, Clay County Board of County Commissioners, and the City of Tampa Parks and Recreation Department, which solicited as-needed vendor contracts covering multiple service categories including playgrounds, fitness equipment, and shade structures.

Recent opportunities show geographic concentration in Florida (Clay County, Broward County, Hillsborough County, Tampa, St. Petersburg), with additional activity in Texas (Austin, Laredo, San Antonio), Michigan (Holt Public Schools), and Georgia (Eatonton). Representative solicitations include Clay County's RFQ #25/26-091 for replacement of two 30-foot tri-sail shade nets at Moody Avenue Park due July 28, 2026, funded through FEMA Public Assistance with a total project cost of $21,170; Broward County Parks and Recreation's IFB for shade structure installation at Quiet Waters Park (two structures measuring 60 by 14 feet and 30 by 24 feet) due July 13, 2026, reserved for Small Business Enterprise firms; the City of Tampa's catalog discount procurement (Bid 26-P-00278) for installation and repair services across more than 200 parks, estimated at $4,000,000 with a two-year award term plus optional renewals and reserved for Small Local Business Enterprises; and Hillsborough County's ITQ2600272 for a galvalume awning with aluminum framing at Upper Tampa Bay Park's Nature Center due June 12, 2026, with an estimated project value of $25,500 and a mandatory site visit on June 2, 2026.
