UNSPSC 48101540: Commercial use wok heating unit

High heat unit with single or multiple gas burners used in conjunction with wok pans and Asian cooking.

UNSPSC 48101540 Commercial use wok heating unit (Commodity) describes commercial food service cooking and warming equipment being procured by state and local governments, though recent activity centers on convection ovens, large kitchen equipment packages, and commercial cooking appliances rather than wok-specific units. State and local buyers under this code include school districts and state agencies. Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) and Northside Independent School District (NISD) are active purchasers of large food service equipment for nutrition programs; both solicit equipment delivery, installation, and related repair services across multiple school sites. NISD's procurement encompasses gas ranges, steamers, ovens, dishwashers, walk-in coolers and freezers, and associated parts and repair services on a one-year firm fixed-price basis with renewal options, delivered across 132 schools and 15 support sites. HCPS procurement is federally funded through USDA's Food and Nutrition Service under the National School Lunch Act and requires Buy American compliance, prevailing wage standards, and USDA debarment and drug-free workplace certifications. Both school districts require vendors to meet electronic submission, insurance, and payment compliance standards; NISD mandates FOB Destination with inside delivery and liftgate capability for pallet shipments, Net 30 payment terms, and maintains an online catalog accessible to all campuses.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Florida, and Texas. A Georgia state agency solicited purchase and installation of three natural gas convection ovens (RFP due November 2, 2026). Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida) issued an ITB for large food service equipment delivery and installation across school nutrition facilities, with an original May 26, 2026 proposal date superseded by a June 30, 2026 Notice of Intent to Award; four addenda between May 4 and May 21, 2026 modified specifications and bid submission procedures. Northside Independent School District (Texas) issued IFB 2026-078 for kitchen equipment, parts, supplies, rentals, repairs, and services (due May 28, 2026), replacing the expiring IFB 2025-096; the procurement is available to other Central Texas Purchasing Alliance member districts at the same or better pricing and terms, potentially expanding contract scope beyond NISD's direct footprint.
