UNSPSC 52152202: Dish drainer

UNSPSC 52152202 Dish drainer is a Commodity code that in practice captures a narrow slice of school cafeteria equipment procurement — specifically small-wares and accessories like dish drainers that appear as line items within larger kitchen equipment solicitations. State and local governments procure these items primarily as part of comprehensive cafeteria buildouts or equipment replacements in school districts, though the code's nominal scope does not align tightly with the representative recent activity. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code are school districts pursuing new or renovated food-service facilities. Kitchen equipment procurement is typically bundled into larger RFPs that allow multiple vendor awards on a line-item basis, with vendors encouraged to bid single-source discounts for complete equipment packages.

Temple Independent School District in Bell County, Texas posted RFP00826 on March 2, 2026, due March 25, 2026, for kitchen equipment and fixtures supporting a new cafeteria at Temple High School. The solicitation encompasses walk-in coolers, six serving lines, refrigeration units, ovens, mobile racks, and thirty-one additional cafeteria items — with dish drainers appearing as subordinate line items within that broader procurement. TISD required vendors to demonstrate five years of continuous commercial kitchen equipment supply to K-12 institutions, provide three school-district references from the past three years, and maintain $1,000,000 commercial general liability coverage. Evaluation weighted pricing at 40 points, technical specifications and NSF/UL/ETL/ENERGY STAR compliance at 25 points, vendor qualifications at 15 points, prior relationships at 10 points, warranty coverage at 5 points, and delivery logistics at 5 points. All equipment deliveries were firm fixed-price with no escalation or fuel surcharges through October 2026 delivery, F.O.B. destination. The solicitation applied Davis-Bacon prevailing wage, Buy American Act, and federal compliance requirements. No specific budget was disclosed.
