UNSPSC 50112014 Lamb or mutton, processed without additions is a Commodity code that does not match the recent state and local procurement activity submitted for this code. The opportunities block documents school district food service, correctional facility meat procurement, and child nutrition program sourcing across multiple states, spanning poultry products (chicken strips, chicken leg quarters, ground poultry, turkey), pork (boneless loin), beef (ground beef, patties), breakfast meats, and processed meat products (bologna, ham) — none of which are lamb or mutton. The issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia Department of Corrections Industries, Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Early County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI School District, Henry County Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Douglas County School System), regional cooperatives (GEC Buying Cooperative), and specialized state entities (Nevada Youth Training Center, Head Start of Greater Dallas, Inc.). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Nevada, with secondary activity in Missouri, Virginia, and other states.

Recent meat and food procurement opportunities show substantial volume and frequency across institutional buyers. The Oregon Department of Corrections has issued multiple ITBs for poultry and processed meats (chicken strips 200,000 pounds, chicken leg quarters 120,000 pounds, ground poultry 120,000 pounds, turkey products in 40,000–80,000-pound quantities) with bid closings in late March and April 2026 and historical award pricing ranging from $0.68 to $2.94 per pound depending on product and cut. School districts soliciting through IFB and RFP include Fairfax County Public Schools (Master Grocery K-12 with 76-item minimum bid requirement, April 27, 2026 closing, seven-location warehouse and school delivery), Early County Board of Education (300+ food items, June 8, 2026 closing, domestic sourcing preference), Rockwood R-VI School District (900+ grocery items split across two solicitations, April 29, 2026 closing, NutriKids electronic format required), and Henry County Schools (52-location delivery with EDI support, May 5, 2026 closing). State correctional facilities (Georgia Department of Corrections Industries, Texas Department of Criminal Justice) and child nutrition programs (Head Start of Greater Dallas, Inc., estimated contract value $969,460.94; Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice, estimated award $8.5 million) continue to source processed meats, poultry, and specialty items with delivery in firm fixed-unit-price or NOI (Net Off Invoice) formats. Preference programs are common: Texas applies HUB certification weighting and small-business preference; Oregon applies 10 percent combined preference (5 percent Oregon-fabricated, 5 percent Oregon resident bidder) with historical award prices documented by prior vendor; Georgia and Nevada apply veteran-owned and state-based business preferences where applicable.
