UNSPSC 52141500: Domestic kitchen appliances

UNSPSC 52141500 Domestic kitchen appliances, a Class code, encompasses the supply and installation of standard household kitchen equipment—refrigerators, ranges, microwaves, dishwashers, toasters, ice machines, and related appliances—purchased by state departments, counties, cities, school districts, universities, and special-purpose authorities for facility operations. State and local governments procure under this code for dormitory and residential housing, fire stations, police evidence facilities, correctional institutions, public schools, higher education residence halls, veterans' nursing homes, parks and recreation centers, and administrative buildings. Recent solicitations show a mix of one-time equipment purchases (micro-purchases and competitive sealed bids), on-call maintenance and repair contracts, lease arrangements for temporary refrigeration capacity, and full-service appliance programs including supply, delivery, installation, and ongoing maintenance. The issuing bodies span state agencies (Florida Department of Veterans' Affairs, California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, Georgia Department of Natural Resources), county governments (Hillsborough County Florida, Orange County California, Escambia County Florida), cities (Philadelphia, Tucson), school districts (Salt Lake City, Muskegon, Newaygo Public Schools), and public universities (Southern Connecticut State University, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Middle Georgia State University, Texas A&M University System).

Activity concentrates in Florida, California, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut, with active procurement also in Michigan, New Jersey, Georgia, Arizona, Washington, and Massachusetts. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Philadelphia issuing IFBs for refrigerators and ice machines with response dates in mid-July 2026; Hillsborough County Florida requesting competitive quotes (ITQ-26-00290) for kitchen and laundry appliances for fire stations, project estimate $41,183.79, due June 18, 2026; Southern Connecticut State University issuing an RFP for a full-service compact refrigerator and microwave lease program covering approximately 933 residential-unit appliances with best-value evaluation and proposals due May 29, 2026; the Florida Department of Veterans' Affairs advertising ITBs for removal and installation of commercial dishwashers at state nursing homes with bids due in June 2026; and the Florida Department of Transportation soliciting furnish-and-install of commercial restaurant equipment (33–34 line items) for a state office building kitchen, with sealed bids due April 22, 2026. On-call maintenance contracts also appear regularly, including Ocean County College's RFB for kitchen appliance repair and maintenance with an April 15, 2026 deadline and Events DC's RFQ for appliance maintenance services across multiple convention and sports venues with a February 10, 2026 response date. Set-asides vary—some jurisdictions (Connecticut, California, District of Columbia) impose disadvantaged-enterprise, small-business, or certified-business-enterprise preferences; others carry no explicit set-aside language. Insurance, prevailing wage where applicable, and equipment-specification compliance are standard requirements.
