UNSPSC 49101609: Ornaments or decorations

UNSPSC 49101609 Ornaments or decorations, a Commodity code, encompasses the design, supply, installation, and removal of seasonal holiday lighting, artificial trees, garland, wreaths, light displays, and themed decorations at municipal parks, downtown districts, airport terminals, and public facilities. State and local governments procure these services primarily through cities and special-purpose authorities (community redevelopment agencies, airport authorities, municipal park departments) on an annual or multi-year basis, with most recent activity concentrated in Florida, Georgia, and California. The work typically includes design consultation, material procurement, professional installation labor, ongoing maintenance during display periods, and end-of-season removal and storage.

Cities across Florida—including Gainesville, Cooper City, Doral, New Smyrna Beach, St. Cloud, and the Immokalee Community Redevelopment Agency—have posted multiple RFPs and RFQs between April and July 2026 for holiday decoration services, indicating sustained seasonal demand. The City of Gainesville issued RFP GCRA260039AF (due July 6, 2026) for design, furnish, install, maintain, and remove seasonal holiday lighting and decor in the downtown service area; the City of Cooper City posted IFB IFBNO20265 (due July 23, 2026) for holiday lighting and decorations; and the City of New Smyrna Beach issued RFP 14-26-LS (due May 13, 2026) for a winter wonderland-themed walk-through light display at the Sports Complex with a three-year contract term and $30,000 annual budget. Outside Florida, the City of Milpitas, California, issued IFB 25-1170 (due June 20, 2025) for a five-year agreement to install and remove lights on trees in front of City Hall with a 10% local purchasing preference and prevailing wage requirements; Columbia County Board of Commissioners in Georgia posted RFP 2026024-RFP1010 (due July 9, 2026) for Christmas lighting services at Evans Towne Center Park and Evans Market Pavilion with a mandatory pre-proposal meeting June 30, 2026; and the Connecticut Airport Authority issued RFP No. 2026-010 (due June 17, 2026) for seasonal, holiday, and event decoration services across CAA-owned airports with a mandatory pre-proposal meeting and site tour June 3, 2026. Many solicitations emphasize energy efficiency (solar and battery-operated lighting preferred where feasible), comprehensive insurance requirements (typically $1 million general liability), and compliance with E-Verify employment verification and prevailing wage standards where applicable.
