UNSPSC 53102708: Nurses uniforms

UNSPSC 53102708 Nurses uniforms is a Commodity code covering work uniforms, scrubs, and related apparel for healthcare, emergency-response, and educational institutional programs. State and local governments purchasing under this code acquire standardized uniform packages tailored to specific professional roles — certified nursing assistant scrubs, cosmetology uniforms, culinary chef coats, phlebotomy scrubs, and fire department station wear — typically requiring NFPA or equivalent safety standards compliance, color and material specifications, sizing across extended ranges (XS to 3XL), embroidery or screening services, and vendor-managed replacement or exchange policies. Issuing bodies span municipal fire departments, community colleges with healthcare and trades training programs, and special-purpose educational institutions. Contracts typically run one to three years with fixed or inflation-capped pricing, require vendors to provide in-person sizing and fitting services, and mandate proof of approved distributor status or institutional references.

Activity under the code shows recent solicitation from Connecticut and New York. The Town of Greenwich Purchasing Department issued RFB #7962 on June 25, 2026, for Greenwich Fire Department station uniforms across 90 line items covering daily work wear, Class A dress uniforms, footwear, and outerwear for approximately 100 employees, with bids due July 16, 2026. Hudson Valley Community College posted BID 4036 on May 25, 2026, for standardized uniforms across five healthcare and trades programs — CNA, Cosmetology, Culinary, Natural Hair Care, and Phlebotomy scrubs in specified colors — with sealed bids due June 22, 2026. Both opportunities required vendor proof of approved distributor or educational institutional references, specified delivery and sizing logistics, and imposed prevailing wage or price-parity compliance in the case of HVCC. The geographic span of recent activity remains limited to the Northeast, with no visible activity in other states or regions in the source data.
