NIGP 01930: Corn

NIGP 01930 Corn, an Item code, covers agricultural commodities procured by state and local education systems to support school meal programs. State and local governments buying under this code are acquiring corn and corn products—including fresh corn, canned and frozen corn, cornmeal, corn flour, and corn-based ingredients—as components of child nutrition services and school lunch menus. School districts are the dominant issuing bodies under this code, with recent solicitations naming Butts County School System (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) as active buyers. The procurement scope extends to multi-year contracts with firm pricing, delivery to multiple school locations during instructional days, compliance with federal nutrition standards and Buy American provisions, and award structures that permit single or multiple vendors on a line-item basis.

School districts across Georgia and Missouri show the most recent activity under this code. The Butts County School System issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for School Nutrition Program food supplies with a response deadline of May 26, 2026, covering contract performance from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with renewal options for up to four additional one-year terms. The Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services in St. Louis County, Missouri solicited bids for over 900 grocery line items—including grains and corn-based products—with electronic submissions required by 9:45 a.m. CDT on April 29, 2026; the contract period runs July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with potential renewal for three additional years. The Douglas County School System, acting through the GEC Buying Cooperative, issued an RFP for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two, with sealed proposals due by 2:00 p.m. EST on March 4, 2026. No set-aside designations or restrictions limiting competition appear in these recent solicitations; all qualified vendors meeting insurance, experience, and federal compliance requirements are eligible to respond.
