UNSPSC 48101545: Commercial use oven stand

General purpose oven stand for supporting ovens where a work surface is not suitable or of the correct height

UNSPSC 48101545 Commercial use oven stand is a Commodity code that names single pieces of commercial kitchen equipment, but state and local procurement activity under this code actually centers on the purchase and installation of diverse food service equipment spanning walk-in coolers and freezers, convection ovens, steam kettles, tilt skillets, serving lines, small wares, and repair or maintenance services for existing kitchen systems. School districts, state facilities, county governments, and independent school districts dominate the buyer mix, with activity spread across Texas, Georgia, Florida, Connecticut, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Missouri, and Michigan. The code sees steady low-to-moderate volume posting; representative recent solicitations include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice tilt skillet braising pans bid (IFB IW255041, due July 15, 2026), Gwinnett County's purchase and installation of an ice machine at Bethesda Park Senior Center (IWQ 129243, due July 9, 2026), Mesquite Independent School District's walk-in cooler and freezer combo procurement for Cannaday Elementary (RFP #2026-009, due June 4, 2026), and Tacoma School District's annual kitchen hood inspection and repair services across approximately 50 locations (RFP26012F, due July 24, 2026).

School districts represent the largest issuing-body category, with multiple Texas and Georgia districts posting walk-in refrigeration, small equipment, and maintenance contracts; county governments and state departments also solicit regularly. Texas sources dominate by geography, but Georgia, Florida, Oregon, and Michigan show active procurement in recent months. Notices span RFP, RFQ, IFB, and ITQ vehicle types; response deadlines cluster in the March through August window. Typical scopes require turnkey installation, delivery, equipment removal, and warranty coverage; many solicitations emphasize NSF certification, ENERGY STAR compliance, and FDA Food Code alignment. Cooperative purchasing through education cooperatives (such as Georgia Educational Cooperative IFB #1-256) aggregates demand across multiple districts to drive volume and pricing leverage. Set-asides and preferences vary by jurisdiction but commonly include HUB, MWBE, WBE, and SBE consideration where federal funding is present. Contract terms typically run one fiscal year with one to four optional renewal terms; few solicitations disclose estimated award values or budget ranges in the posted notices.
