UNSPSC 52131702: Curtain rods

UNSPSC 52131702 Curtain rods, a Commodity code, covers window covering supply and maintenance services that state and local governments actually procure on both recurring and as-needed bases. The code captures the provision and installation of vertical blinds, roller shades, solar shades, blackout shades, and related window treatments, along with ongoing maintenance, repair, and warranty support. Issuing bodies under this code include transit authorities and other special-purpose districts procuring these services to outfit and maintain facilities. Scope typically includes site assessment, dimension verification, installation that matches existing conditions, rapid-response maintenance calls with defined service-level commitments (such as 24-hour response requirements), equipment testing, and cleanup, often bundled into multi-year, as-needed contracts with firm-fixed unit pricing and no guaranteed purchase volumes.

The Orange County Transportation Authority issued an RFQ for window covering supply and maintenance on September 29, 2026, with responses due October 13, 2026, covering vertical blinds, roller shades, solar shades, and blackout shades at two facilities in Orange, California (600 South Main Street and 550 South Main Street) under a three-year, as-needed contract with a $35,000 total budget and no guaranteed usage. The RFQ required firm-fixed unit pricing with no escalation allowed during the contract term, mandated 24-hour response to service calls, imposed a 90-day warranty minimum, and required Commercial General Liability coverage of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate, with OCTA named as additional insured. This single recent opportunity reflects typical procurement activity under the code in the transit and facilities-management space, though the limited opportunities block supports no other representative recent solicitations for curtain rods or window coverings under this Commodity code.
