UNSPSC 10101512: Rabbits

UNSPSC 10101512 Rabbits is a Commodity code covering commercially manufactured rabbit food products sourced by state and local animal care operations. The code captures what shelters and animal-welfare agencies actually buy: nutritionally complete rabbit diets meeting AAFCO nutrient profiles and WSAVA Global Nutrition Committee guidelines, supplied under reliability and performance standards including 95% fill rates, 90% on-time delivery, and weekly delivery capability with 24-hour emergency access. County animal-care departments and shelters drive solicitation activity under this code, typically bundling rabbit food with companion animal feeds for dogs and cats to streamline procurement across multiple species housed at the same facility.

County of Sacramento Department of Animal Care Services issued RFP 2026RFP0087 for Dog, Cat, Rabbit, and Small Animal Food Supply on October 7, 2026, with proposals due September 18, 2026 under a multiple-award, best-value structure. The scope includes rabbit food as one of four species categories, with the shelter serving approximately 400 animals requiring twice-daily feeding operations; vendors may propose for rabbit food alone or in combination with other categories. The contract term runs November 1, 2026 through October 31, 2027, with options to renew annually for up to four additional one-year terms. A 5% local-business preference applies to vendors with principal place of business in Sacramento County, and a 2% micro-business preference applies to State of California certified micro-businesses; the RFP also participates in SCoPA (Sacramento County Procurement Alliance), a cooperative purchasing vehicle that extends awarded contracts to other governmental, educational, and non-profit entities. No other recent state or local opportunities under this code appear in the available record.
