UNSPSC 52131701: Valances

UNSPSC 52131701 Valances is a Commodity code that covers window coverings and associated maintenance services—specifically the supply, installation, and upkeep of vertical blinds, roller shades, solar shades, blackout shades, and related products at state and local facilities. The Orange County Transportation Authority's recent RFQ for window covering supply and maintenance represents the scope of work typically procured under this code: as-needed installation at multiple locations with ongoing service-call response obligations, warranty coverage, and cleaning. State and local issuing bodies sourcing under this code include transit authorities and other facility-management entities that maintain office and operational spaces. The work involves both initial supply-and-install phases and recurring maintenance, with contractors expected to respond to service calls within defined timeframes, verify dimensions before installation to match existing coverings, and maintain extended warranties.

The Orange County Transportation Authority posted RFQ 260563 on September 29, 2026, with a response deadline of October 13, 2026, and a non-mandatory job walk on September 24, 2026 at two OCTA facilities in Orange, California. The three-year contract carries a total budget of $35,000 with no guaranteed usage; award will be made to the lowest responsive, responsible firm on a firm-fixed unit-price basis with no price increases permitted during the term. California-specific Ukraine/Russia sanctions certifications apply. The contractor must maintain specified levels of Commercial General Liability, Automobile Liability, and Workers' Compensation insurance, comply with Level 2 Health, Safety and Environmental Specifications, and meet a 24-hour service-call response window during standard business hours (8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday), with after-hours arrangements negotiable. Recent activity under the code appears concentrated in California; no other jurisdictions are supported by the source.
