UNSPSC 56101603: Outdoor tables or picnic tables

UNSPSC 56101603 Outdoor tables or picnic tables, a Commodity code, captures state and local procurement of prefabricated picnic tables and benches in concrete, metal, composite, and other durable materials for public parks, recreation facilities, and outdoor spaces. State and local agencies are actively buying tables across a range of specifications—from fixed-form concrete units with skateboard-resistant features and customized aggregate finishes to ADA-compliant modular furniture suitable for mixed-use parks. The work typically includes supply only, though some solicitations bundle installation and delivery, and vendors must meet durability, safety compliance (CPSC, ASTM, IPEMA where applicable), accessibility standards, and often hold manufacturer authorization or distributor credentials. Issuing bodies span city parks and recreation departments, county governments, school districts, and special-purpose park authorities. The City of Tampa Parks and Recreation Department, City of Tucson Parks and Recreation Department, and Sarasota County Parks, Recreation, and Natural Resources Department have posted recent, substantive solicitations; other active buyers include Clark County School District and the State of Oregon through a multi-state cooperative purchasing vehicle.

Activity is distributed across the Southwest, Southeast, and Pacific Northwest. The most recent substantive opportunities include the City of Tampa's invitation to bid on catalog discounts for site furnishings including picnic tables across 200+ parks (IFB 26P00278, response due June 10, 2026, estimated contract value $4,000,000.00, sheltered for Small Local Business Enterprises with a 5 percent bid discount); the City of Tucson's concrete picnic tables and benches procurement totaling 127 units with ARPA funding and federal domestic-preference requirements (IFB 270140, due October 13, 2026); Sarasota County's quote request for four Wausau Concrete Park ADA-compliant tables with custom glass and concrete specifications (RFQ 2026QQ785, due July 24, 2026, $50,000 ceiling); and the State of Oregon's multi-state NASPO ValuePoint RFI on parks and recreation equipment and installation (S-10700-00018166, responses due October 29, 2026). The State of Oregon's RFI explicitly targets market information on capacity and product offerings across nine categories including outdoor furniture and park site furnishings, indicating potential larger procurements to follow. Clark County School District's outdoor furniture RFP (27013EQJ, due October 1, 2026) establishes supplier relationships without fixed quantities or performance specifications disclosed in the available source material.
