UNSPSC 56101515: Beds

UNSPSC 56101515 Beds is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure residential and institutional bedroom furniture, including bed frames, headboards, footboards, bedside cabinets, and related bedroom furnishings for facilities such as veterans homes, schools, and institutional care settings. Recent solicitations show Texas state agencies and cooperative purchasing groups as dominant buyers, with the Texas General Land Office and Veterans Land Board issuing multiple furniture replacement procurements for state veterans homes that include not only beds and bedroom components but also broader residential and common-area furniture packages delivered and installed as single-source contracts. The scope of work involves equipment supply, white-glove delivery and installation, project management, and vendor accountability for installation quality and manufacturer warranty compliance; bidders typically must demonstrate three years of prior experience or principals with five years of ownership or management background in comparable furniture services.

The code shows concentrated recent activity in Texas, where the Texas General Land Office has posted Invitation for Bids (IFB) 8437-JW for Kwalu furniture replacement at the William R. Courtney Texas State Veterans Home in Temple (due June 17, 2026, with an anticipated notice of award June 24, 2026) and IFB 8551-SJ for similar furniture replacement at the Frank M. Tejeda Texas State Veterans Home in Floresville (due July 24, 2026, with notice of award expected July 31, 2026). The Temple solicitation encompasses 832 pieces of furniture with specified finishes and fabric vendors; the Floresville solicitation covers 941 pieces across resident bedrooms and common areas with two finish specifications and a requirement for white-glove installation within ninety days. The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative issued an RFP (CLSF2628) for classroom furniture and supplies on a catalog discount model with an estimated total expenditure of $21,568,516.00 over a two-year term (June 18, 2026–June 18, 2028), indicating broader demand for institutional bedroom and classroom furniture through cooperative vehicles. No recent opportunities outside Texas appear in the available records.
