UNSPSC 52141519: Domestic convectional ovens

UNSPSC 52141519 Domestic convectional ovens is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of kitchen appliances, particularly ovens, refrigerators, microwaves, and related small cooking equipment for institutional facilities. State and local governments buy under this code primarily when furnishing fire stations, university residences, school kitchens, and municipal office break rooms. Issuing bodies span state procurement offices, county governments, cities, and higher-education institutions. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, City of Philadelphia, Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners, and Texas A&M University System are among recent buyers. Scope varies from single-appliance micro-purchases to multi-unit institutional outfits; the Hillsborough County Fire Rescue procurement, for example, bundled nine items (wall oven, microwave, refrigerators, cooktop, grill, and laundry equipment) totaling $41,183.79, while Philadelphia's bid sought a refrigerator, microwave, and toaster as a three-item package under a $41,000 ceiling.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, Illinois, and Pennsylvania, with a secondary Sourcewell cooperative sourcing reaching Washington, Minnesota, and broader North America. Representative opportunities include the Illinois Chief Procurement Office's bid for kitchen appliances (due August 13, 2026, ITQ notice), the City of Philadelphia's micro-purchase for refrigerator, microwave, and toaster (bid due July 17, 2026), Hillsborough County's ITQ for fire station kitchen and laundry appliances (due June 18, 2026), and Texas A&M University System's ITB for Reed House appliances (due July 7, 2026). Award criteria typically favor lowest responsible bidder; specifications emphasize stainless-steel construction, energy efficiency, and compact footprints suited to shared facilities. Delivery windows are tight (Hillsborough County required delivery within ten days of PO), and most solicitations demand manufacturer authorization, warranty documentation, and compliance with prevailing-wage or tax-exemption rules specific to each jurisdiction.
