UNSPSC 50111559 Pheasant, minimally processed without additions is a Commodity code that encompasses poultry products procured by state and local agencies for food service operations. Based on recent solicitation activity, state and local governments are buying processed and ready-to-serve poultry items—including game hens and other minimally processed bird products—for institutional meal programs. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state agencies (the Texas Health and Human Services Commission procuring for state-supported living centers, the Georgia state purchasing system), school districts (Early County Board of Education), and other local institutional food service operations. Purchases are typically made as part of broader food and consumable product bids that bundle proteins, produce, dairy, and non-food supplies, with awards based on best value, responsiveness to USDA nutrition standards, and vendor performance history rather than lowest price alone.

The code shows recent activity in Texas, Georgia, and the Southeast. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) seeking food and consumable products including poultry for the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million and contract terms running through August 2028; the State of Georgia RFQ PE55645NONST2026000000009 (posted May 15, 2026, due June 22, 2026) for food, supplies, and other kitchen products; and the Early County Board of Education line-item food bid PE55045NONST2027000000006 (posted May 11, 2026, due June 8, 2026) covering approximately 300+ food items including meats and poultry for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with the district emphasizing domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, and products without artificial additives. Contract terms typically run one year with renewal or extension options, pricing is firm fixed or tied to USDA or Consumer Price Index adjustments, and delivery is required to multiple sites with temperature and food safety compliance mandated.
