UNSPSC 56101703: Desks

UNSPSC 56101703 Desks, a Commodity code, covers office and institutional furniture procurement by state and local governments, particularly L-shaped desks with hutches, adjustable-height return desks, and related workstation components. The recent solicitations show state health and human services agencies, school districts, and county governments as primary buyers, with work ranging from bulk office furniture supply to specialized institutional furnishings. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB #HHS0017388 (due July 13, 2026) exemplifies the core activity: procurement of 13 office L-desks with hutch at specified dimensions (72" depth × 72" width), 13 left return desks with adjustable height (72" width × 78" depth, adjustable 30" to 50"), delivered F.O.B. Destination to the HHSC Bandera Warehouse in San Antonio. The Polk County, Florida School Board's ITB 040-MJ-0626 (due April 30, 2026) similarly sought cafeteria, classroom, office, and library furniture under a one-year contract, with delivery to Winter Haven and specific school locations. These solicitations indicate state agencies and school districts dominate the code's activity, with commodity-level procurement on firm pricing and standardized specifications.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, and Minnesota based on recent postings. The Texas HHS procurement and Polk County School Board opportunity in Florida represent the largest recent spike in desk-specific solicitations, while a Sourcewell cooperative procurement (#061626) issued in May 2026 suggests multi-jurisdictional purchasing vehicles are active across Washington state and broader North American participation. The Philadelphia Free Library's micro purchase (BV ASP REQ 2026, due March 25, 2026) and Hillsborough County's park and facility equipment procurements (ITB2600149 and ITB2600151) indicate secondary activity beyond desks but in related institutional furniture categories. Response windows have been tight—14 to 16 days for most recent opportunities—and F.O.B. Destination pricing with freight prepaid is standard across issuing bodies.
