UNSPSC 48101814: Commercial use woks

UNSPSC 48101814 Commercial use woks (Commodity) covers food-service smallwares and equipment that state and local governments procure to support school nutrition programs, child-care meal services, and institutional food operations. The actual buying under this code spans kitchen utensils, food preparation and storage containers, food safety equipment (thermometers, cooling devices), personal protective equipment, cleaning supplies, material-handling carts and racks, and small powered equipment such as food blenders and can openers. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix; child-care programs and county governments also solicit under this code. Representative recent work includes Colquitt County School Nutrition's sealed-bid IFB for 295 line items of kitchen smallwares across ten equipment categories (bids due June 15, 2026), Rockwood R-VI School District's competitive bid for approximately 100 line items of food-service equipment and utensils (bids due April 28, 2026), and Henry County Schools' invitation for bid for cafeteria smallwares to 52 school-nutrition locations with weekly delivery (bids due May 5, 2026). These procurements emphasize NSF certification, brand-name equivalents or USA manufacture to comply with USDA Buy American provisions, and firm pricing for the contract period.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and the broader Southeast, with notable solicitations from Colquitt County, Henry County, and Houston County school districts. The City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program meal service (RFP 2026-017, due August 4, 2026), and Baconton Community Charter School in Georgia bid smallwares and small equipment (sealed-bid, due August 3, 2026). Hillsborough County, Florida, solicited miscellaneous kitchen supplies without set-asides (due July 8, 2026). School districts across this region typically award to single or multiple vendors based on lowest responsive bid, include four optional one-year renewal terms, require weekly or daily delivery with no minimum order quantities, and mandate USDA compliance, debarment certification, and insurance with the district named as additional insured. Contract values and specific budget ranges are rarely disclosed in source materials, and federal compliance thresholds ($25,000 for debarment verification, $100,000 for lobbying certification) apply to higher-value awards.
