UNSPSC 50111532 Mixed species meat, minimally processed with additions is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure ready-to-cook and minimally processed meat products — primarily frozen and prepared poultry, ground meat, and meat patties — for institutional food service including schools, correctional facilities, youth training centers, and child care programs. Recent solicitations show active procurement of cooked turkey, ground poultry, chicken leg quarters, ground beef patties, breakfast patties, and bologna, often with specifications requiring USDA Grade B or better, HACCP compliance, six-month shelf life at delivery, and nutritional documentation for child nutrition programs. Issuing bodies include state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia Department of Corrections Industries, Nevada Department of Administration), county school boards and independent school districts (Rockwood R-VI, Fairfax County Public Schools, Early County Schools, Henry County Schools, Liberty County Schools, Douglas County Schools), Head Start organizations (Head Start of Greater Dallas), and state-operated youth and correctional facilities. Georgia Correctional Industries and the Oregon Department of Corrections appear as repeat buyers, posting multiple meat-product solicitations over the past four months.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast (Texas, Georgia) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with additional procurement from Nevada and Virginia. Representative solicitations include Head Start of Greater Dallas' June 2026 IFB for approximately 32,409 cases of mixed frozen foods and meat products, totaling $969,460.94 and requiring 95 percent monthly fill rates with online ordering; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's June 2026 IFB for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center, with a historical value of $1.5 million for the prior year; the Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 ITB for 80,000 pounds of cooked whole turkey at historical pricing of $1.366 per pound; and the Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice's March 2026 award of an open agency contract to US Foods for $8,554,249.19 to supply groceries and beverages to 25 school facilities. School nutrition programs favor firm fixed pricing, weekly delivery windows (typically 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Monday through Friday), Buy American compliance, and whole-grain and low-sodium options, while correctional and youth facilities emphasize unit-cost FOB Destination pricing with 30-day payment terms and state preference programs (Oregon applies combined 10 percent Oregon-processing and resident preferences; Nevada and Texas support small-business and HUB certifications).
