About UNSPSC 56121510

UNSPSC 56121510 Teacher desk is a Commodity code that encompasses individual student and teacher desks procured by state and local school districts, colleges, and county governments for classroom and administrative use. The recent solicitations under this code show school districts buying both individual desk units and comprehensive classroom furniture packages that include teacher desks alongside student seating and tables, often as part of broader facility renovations or districtwide furniture standardization efforts. State and local buyers treat teacher desks as line items within larger furniture procurements rather than standalone purchases—several recent RFPs bundle teacher desks with classroom tables, student chairs, and storage solutions, while others include teacher standing desks as specialized variants within mixed-use classroom furniture specifications.

The issuing bodies pursuing this code are predominantly K–12 school districts across multiple states, with secondary activity from county governments, state universities, and community colleges. Florida school districts show the highest recent activity, including Hillsborough County Public Schools, Marion County Schools, and the School Board of Polk County, alongside Texas districts such as Northside Independent School District and Donna ISD. Georgia school districts including Columbia County, Savannah-Chatham County, Effingham County, and Rabun County Schools have all posted classroom or districtwide furniture solicitations in recent months. Representative recent opportunities include Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas) issuing RFP 2026-052 for standard campus furniture with a one-year term and option to renew, Rabun County Schools (Tiger, Georgia) posting RFP PE71910NONST2026000000016 for office furniture with an April 24, 2026 question deadline and May 4, 2026 proposal due date, and Effingham County School District (Georgia) issuing RFP PE55693NONST2026000000030 for districtwide furniture on a line-item basis with a May 8, 2026 deadline. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (Kilgore, Texas) issued the largest recent opportunity under this code—CLSF2628, a catalog discount bid for classroom furniture and supplies valued at $21.6 million over two years with a response date of May 26, 2026, awarded to multiple vendors. Most school districts structure these procurements as RFPs or IFBs with firm-fixed pricing, delivery-included terms, and contract terms of one to two years, often with optional renewals.
