UNSPSC 72152505: Linoleum installation service

The installation of linoleum flooring in structures owned by others

UNSPSC 72152505 Linoleum installation service is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to tag flooring work of varied types, though recent solicitations show minimal actual linoleum scope and instead focus broadly on resilient and specialty flooring replacement and repair across institutional campuses, municipal facilities, and government buildings. Over the past two months, issuing bodies include Washington state colleges (Skagit Valley, Edmonds, Columbia Basin, Shoreline, Bellingham, Yakima Valley), Washington state agencies (Department of Enterprise Services, Department of Corrections, Department of Social & Health Services), city school districts (Meriden, Connecticut; Fayette County Public Schools, Georgia; Jackson, Michigan; New Haven, Connecticut), counties (Sacramento, Beaufort, Portage, Dorchester), cities (Long Beach, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, New Haven), and specialized public bodies (Housing Authority of the City of Alameda, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Alcorn State University). The work solicited ranges from VCT (vinyl composite tile) and luxury vinyl tile (LVT) removal and installation with epoxy or moisture-mitigation systems, to carpet removal and replacement, to hard-surface flooring (wood, concrete) prep and finishing. Two of the largest recent opportunities with fuller scope detail are the City of Fort Worth's non-exclusive flooring materials and services agreement (RFP 260223, due July 23, 2026) covering carpet, ceramic tile, hardwood, linoleum, marble, stone, terrazzo, VCT, and LVT across multiple departments on an as-needed basis with a 30% SBE goal, and the Housing Authority of the City of Alameda's water damage restoration at Independent Plaza (IFB AHA-HD-009, due August 5, 2026) encompassing drywall, insulation, flooring across multiple material types, and miscellaneous finishes in fifteen residential units under Davis-Bacon prevailing wage with mandatory pre-bid and site visit on July 23, 2026.

Geographic concentration is strongest in Washington state (multiple colleges, state departments) and California (Sacramento County, City of Long Beach, Alameda Housing Authority), with secondary activity in Connecticut (Meriden school district, New Haven), Georgia (Fayette County, DeKalb County), Texas (Houston, Harlingen, Long Beach vicinity), Michigan (Jackson, Pellston), and South Carolina (Dorchester County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Meriden ITB B026-63 for gymnasium floor replacement at Pulaski Elementary (due June 25, 2026, with 25% SBE and 6.25% M/W/DisBE spending goals and Connecticut prevailing wage), Pellston Public Schools RFP for carpet removal and epoxy flooring installation (due July 1, 2026, with USA-manufactured materials requirement), Fayette County Public Schools RFQ for LVT and carpet tiles at four school locations (due June 10, 2026 with mandatory pre-bid June 8), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB for LVT removal and rolled vinyl installation at Rio Grande State Center (due June 29, 2026 with mandatory on-site visit June 22), and the City of New Haven ITB for Floyd Little Athletic Center flooring including moisture mitigation and multi-layer resilient systems (due June 24, 2026 with 25% MBE/WBE goal and prevailing wage). Prevailing wage requirements are standard; bond and insurance thresholds vary widely by issuer and project size. The code shows steady activity across institutional and municipal buyers with mixed project sizes and delivery models (fixed-price bids, unit-price RFQs, as-needed agreements), suggesting stable near-term pursuit opportunity particularly for firms positioned on cooperative purchasing rosters and certified under state SBE, MBE, or WBE programs.
