UNSPSC 10121506: Oil cake

UNSPSC 10121506 Oil cake (Commodity) describes feed and bedding products that state and local governments procure for animal care facilities, though recent opportunities show the code capturing a broader scope than the narrow "oil cake" naming suggests — state and local buyers are soliciting hay, feed formulations, pine shavings, bedding pellets, and animal supplies for equine facilities, shelters, and farms. The issuing bodies span county purchasing departments, city governments, and independent animal-care agencies; DeKalb County in Georgia and Palm Beach County in Florida appear as repeat active buyers. Work ranges from single-supplier feed-and-hay contracts for county-operated horse farms to multi-year commodity supply agreements that bundle feed, hay, shavings, and bedding materials for shelter operations.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Florida. DeKalb County issued an ITB for feed, hay, and shavings to Little Creek Horse Farm with bids due July 23, 2026, under a three-year contract with two one-year options and one-day delivery. The City of Conyers posted an RFP (due August 27, 2026) for equine waste removal, hay and feed sales, and shavings supply at the Georgia International Horse Park, bundling commodity sales with facility services under a ten-year initial term. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Animal Care & Control in North Carolina solicited animal food for approximately 12,000 animals annually (dogs 59%, cats 33%, other species 8%) across two facilities, with proposals due June 24, 2026. Palm Beach County maintains an open pre-qualified vendor list for animal feed, bedding, and supplies with an anticipated sixty-month contract value of $1,095,000, accepting new vendor applications on a rolling basis with project awards to the lowest-priced qualified bidder subject to local preference (Equal Business Opportunity Program applies; Affirmative Procurement Initiative waived).
