UNSPSC 48101505: Commercial use coffee or iced tea makers

UNSPSC 48101505 Commercial use coffee or iced tea makers is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity spans a broader range of commercial food service equipment than the code name suggests—specifically large commercial kitchen appliances including convection ovens, ranges, steamers, dishwashers, walk-in coolers and freezers, and associated parts and repair services. School districts are the dominant issuing bodies under this code, with multi-location food service operations driving demand for standardized equipment procurement across campuses. Scope of work includes equipment purchase, delivery, installation, warranty support, and ongoing parts and repair services under firm fixed-price or best-value competitive bidding. Vendors must typically meet Buy American provisions where federally funded, comply with prevailing wage requirements on larger contracts, maintain online catalogs accessible to all district locations, provide certificates of insurance, and complete mandatory federal compliance certifications including debarment and drug-free workplace attestations.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Florida. Northside Independent School District (NISD) in San Antonio issued IFB 2026-078 on May 5, 2026 for kitchen equipment, parts, supplies, rentals, repairs, and services across 132 schools and 15 support sites, with sealed bids due May 28, 2026 and contract awards valid through July 2026 with two optional one-year renewals; NISD participates in the Central Texas Purchasing Alliance, permitting other member districts to adopt awarded contracts at the same pricing. Hillsborough County Public Schools issued ITB 26147-ITB-DST in September 2026 for large food service equipment delivery to individual school sites statewide under USDA National School Lunch Act funding with a Notice of Intent to Award posted June 30, 2026. A Georgia state agency posted RFP 9060_1005_210 on October 5, 2026 for purchase and installation of three natural gas convection ovens, with proposals due November 2, 2026. Payment terms typically follow state prompt-payment standards (Net 30 to Net 45 days), and vendors must include all shipping costs and provide liftgate delivery capability.
