UNSPSC 53101701: Boys sweaters

UNSPSC 53101701 Boys sweaters, a Commodity code, covers apparel procurement that state and local governments are actually buying today as part of broader school-district and municipal uniform and embroidered-merchandise programs. Recent solicitations show districts and cities buying boys sweaters, sweatshirts, and related outerwear alongside t-shirts, polos, athletic uniforms, and accessories, often bundled with custom screen printing and embroidery services. The issuing bodies are primarily independent school districts serving student populations across multiple campuses, alongside municipal governments purchasing embroidered items for operational use. Temple Independent School District in Texas and the City of Richardson in Texas are the identified recent buyers.

Temple ISD issued RFP 006-27 on September 1, 2026, establishing a multi-vendor contract to supply apparel and accessories—including boys sweaters, sweatshirts, and athletic uniforms—with custom decoration services for 15 campuses serving approximately 8,700 students, with proposals due October 6, 2026. The City of Richardson issued IFB 5526 on May 14, 2026, for an annual requirements contract for embroidered items with proposals due June 16, 2026, using best value evaluation criteria. Both solicitations span Texas, reflecting recent activity concentrated in that state. Neither opportunity specifies a disclosed budget, though both structure contracts as annual-requirements vehicles with renewal options and no guaranteed minimum purchase volumes, reserving award discretion across single vendors, multiple vendors, or line-item basis.
