UNSPSC 56111800: Freestanding furniture

UNSPSC 56111800 Freestanding furniture, a Class code, spans office desks, file cabinets, bookcases, tackboards, and movable modular systems furniture that state and local governments procure for workplace, institutional, and operational settings. Recent solicitations show state agencies, school districts, and counties sourcing standard office furniture (desks with hutches, return desks, filing pedestals, shelving), specialized modular systems for multi-location operations, and miscellaneous fixed-asset furniture for parks and institutional facilities. The code draws solicitations from state health and human services departments, state motor vehicle administrations, county governments, school districts, city and county parks operations, and municipal libraries. Texas Health and Human Services Commission, California Department of Motor Vehicles, School Board of Polk County (Florida), and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners appear as repeat or recent active buyers.

Activity is geographically dispersed, with recent solicitations originating from Texas, California, Florida, Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell), and Utah municipal governments. Representative recent opportunities include Texas HHS Commission IFB HHS0017388 (13 office L-desks with hutches, 39 mobile file pedestals, 39 bookcases, and tackboards due July 13, 2026), California DMV IFB 25-360 for freestanding modular systems furniture installation and reconfiguration services across Southern California regions (estimated cost $551,445.50, due April 15, 2026), Polk County Schools ITB 040-MJ-0626 for cafeteria, classroom, office, and library furniture (due April 30, 2026), and Hillsborough County ITB ITB2600151 for transit benches and picnic tables for parks (estimated cost $325,141.10, due March 13, 2026). Salt Lake City RFP SLCI26119 for historic exhibit design and installation (contract ceiling $120,000, due July 16, 2026) and Philadelphia Free Library BV ASP REQ 2026 (micro purchase, due March 25, 2026) represent institutional and library-focused procurement under the code, though exhibit fabrication and ASP supplies diverge from core freestanding furniture scope.
