UNSPSC 10101602: Live ducks

UNSPSC 10101602 Live ducks (Commodity) does not show meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. The only substantive opportunity in the recent record is the State of Maine Department of Administrative and Financial Services' RFQ for approximately 2,000 adult ring-necked pheasants, posted July 8, 2026, with responses due July 22, 2026 — a solicitation for game birds to support public hunting season, not live ducks. That RFQ calls for birds meeting strict health and physical specifications (minimum 50% male, weights of at least 2.5 lbs for males and 2.0 lbs for females, certified free of pullorum, typhoid, West Nile Virus, and tuberculosis), with delivery to two designated Maine locations on a schedule tied to hunting-season openings, priced FOB Destination on a per-unit basis. A second opportunity, Newark Liberty International Airport's Bid #6000003475 (posted September 14, 2026, due September 30, 2026), addresses bird exclusion and dropping remediation services — wildlife management, not procurement of live ducks for any purpose. The Williamson County Purchasing Department notice contains no procurement scope.

The code appears limited to specialized wildlife-management and hunting-program supply, with the State of Maine Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife as the identifiable active buyer in the recent record. The Maine RFQ indicates a cooperative-purchasing vehicle structured as a Master Agreement renewable through June 2031, allowing all state agencies to purchase birds as needed under terms set by the initial award. Beyond Maine, the source does not support geographic concentration or additional issuing-body activity. The code merits a watch posture for vendors in game-bird supply positioned to meet health certification, delivery, and scheduling requirements tied to state hunting seasons, particularly in Northeast regions; current activity does not yet indicate sustained procurement volume.
