UNSPSC 47131619: Mop heads

UNSPSC 47131619 Mop heads, a Commodity code, covers consumable mop heads and related floor-cleaning supplies that state and local governments procure as part of larger custodial and janitorial supply contracts. In practice, mop heads are rarely solicited as standalone items; instead, they appear as line items within comprehensive custodial supply RFPs and ITBs that bundle mops, mop buckets, cleaning chemicals, floor care products, trash liners, and related consumables into single contracts. School districts dominate procurement activity under this code, with county school systems and municipal school boards representing the largest buying cohort. Representative recent solicitations include the School Board of Pinellas County, Florida (Invitation to Bid #25-JG-072 for 102 line items of custodial supplies including mops, due December 2, 2025, estimated annual value $900,000), Cobb County School District in Georgia (solicitation B27046 for custodial equipment, due September 23, 2026, estimated $550,000), and Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas (RFP 2026-071 for custodial supplies, due June 4, 2026). Specialized government customers also buy under this code: Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida solicited janitorial and operational supplies for 47 fire stations (ITB 26-00319, due July 24, 2026, valued at $765,679.84), and Caltrans District 11 in California issued an IFPQ restricted to certified small businesses and disabled veteran enterprises for window and building washing services (due October 1, 2026). Pricing is typically quoted per case or per unit, with firm pricing required for the contract period and all freight and handling included in the bid.

Activity concentrates in Florida, Georgia, Texas, California, and Arizona, reflecting both population density and regular school-district procurement cycles. Recent solicitations span spring through fall 2026, with school districts posting custodial supply RFPs and ITBs on staggered renewal schedules. Most contracts run for one year with options to renew for one to four additional annual terms, and award values range from $550,000 to $900,000 annually for large school systems. Delivery is typically F.O.B. destination to warehouse or facility locations, with standard delivery within 10 days and emergency delivery within 5 business days. Bidders must provide Safety Data Sheets for chemical products, submit samples for alternate products at bid time, demonstrate E-Verify compliance, and carry commercial general liability insurance. School districts generally reserve the right to award by line item, section, or aggregate total and may negotiate with responsive and responsible bidders. No set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly stated in the recent posting summaries, though Florida districts note nondiscrimination policies and require out-of-state bidders to provide attorney certification regarding state bidding preferences.
