UNSPSC 49211610: Golf ball dispenser

An apparatus supplying golf balls on the tee or practice mat for golf swing practice.

UNSPSC 49211610 Golf ball dispenser is a Commodity code covering motorized and manual equipment that collects, sorts, and dispenses golf balls at ranges and on courses. State and local governments procure these devices as part of broader golf course operations and maintenance, typically bundled with related range supplies, ball-washing equipment, and clubhouse support infrastructure. Issuing bodies include municipal park and recreation departments, county golf authorities, and school districts with athletic programs. Recent opportunities show golf ball dispensers solicited alongside complementary range equipment (bulk ball collectors, washers, repair parts) under cooperative catalog structures that allow multiple vendors and indexed pricing rather than fixed contracts. The City of Fort Worth's October 2026 RFQt for golf course supplies to Park and Recreation Department explicitly includes ball washers and water coolers alongside flagsticks, putting cups, on-course signage, and bunker maintenance equipment; Bergen County, New Jersey's May and June 2026 re-bids for golf range equipment and supplies name Range Servant bulk golf ball dispensing machines specifically as line items in a 24-month cooperative catalog procurement. School districts consolidating athletic equipment contracts (Northside ISD in San Antonio and Austin ISD) treat golf-related items as part of larger athletic supplies frameworks rather than standalone acquisitions.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Mid-Atlantic. Fort Worth, Atlanta, and San Antonio (Texas), Fulton County and City of Atlanta (Georgia), and Bergen County (New Jersey) posted opportunities between May and October 2026. The Fort Worth RFQt due October 20, 2026, requires five years' prior golf course supply experience and delivery to three municipal courses within seven calendar days; it carries a 5% SBE bid preference for Tarrant, Wise, Johnson, Parker, or Denton County-certified small businesses on contracts up to $100,000, with a 30% utilization floor on larger awards. Bergen County's cooperative catalog IFBs (due May 20 and June 23, 2026) structure awards to multiple vendors on firm fixed-price FOB terms with a 1% administrative participation fee on quarterly sales volumes and require $1 million in general liability coverage. Atlanta City Golf's greens renovation IFB (due October 21, 2026) does not reference ball dispensers, suggesting misalignment with the code's nominal scope in that posting. School district activity reflects bundled athletic purchasing rather than golf-specific focus.
