UNSPSC 56112204: Worksurfaces

Desks with legs and panels or other means to support the surface. Also includes tables which provide support for task-related activities.

UNSPSC 56112204 Worksurfaces is a Commodity code covering desks, tables, chairs, and related office and institutional furniture pieces that state and local governments procure for educational facilities, administrative offices, and public buildings. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring task chairs, guest chairs, conference tables, storage cabinets, shelving units, classroom furniture, modular seating systems, and counter stools with detailed specifications for material, finish, and dimensional requirements. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state facilities commissions, county education departments, and municipal procurement offices; the Texas Facilities Commission and Harris County Department of Education appear as repeat buyers in the recent record. Work being solicited encompasses both standalone furniture packages for new construction and renovation projects and maintenance components within broader job-order contracting frameworks that bundle worksurface and related furnishings procurement alongside facility upkeep and improvement services.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, where the Texas Facilities Commission issued an RFP in August 2026 for a furniture and fixture package supporting the Texas School for the Deaf Access Student Housing Building, Classroom Expansion, and Security Entrance Improvement project, due September 10, 2026, with five bid packages covering residential and classroom furnishings totaling approximately 270 units and requiring unit pricing on an F.O.B. Destination basis through December 31, 2027. Harris County Department of Education, in partnership with cooperative purchasing vehicle Choice Partners, issued a Competitive Sealed Proposal in June 2026 for Modular Buildings and Related Items that includes a maintenance component for worksurfaces and institutional furniture, with a maximum annual aggregate contract price of $200 million across the entire Choice Partners cooperative program. Vendors must demonstrate capability to price furnishings using approved Unit Price Books, provide three client references, and maintain current licenses at their own expense. Both solicitations enforce compliance with state-specific requirements—Texas VetHUB vendor subcontracting goals in the TFC procurement and E-Verify and criminal background checks in the Harris County vehicle.
