UNSPSC 50112016 Goat, processed without additions is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual procurement activity state and local governments are currently buying under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged with this code predominantly solicit processed meat and poultry products — chicken, turkey, pork, and ground poultry — for institutional food service operations rather than goat meat. The code's nominal scope does not align with the bulk of recent solicitations, which center on beef, poultry, and pork sourcing for correctional facilities, school districts, and youth training centers. When goat meat does appear in state and local procurement, it is typically bundled into broader protein commodity buys rather than solicited as a standalone item, and the recent-opportunities block shows no dedicated goat meat procurements from state or local issuing bodies.

Issuing bodies across the recent record include state correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia Department of Corrections Industries, Nevada Department of Administration), state health agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), school districts and boards of education (Head Start programs in Texas, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Fairfax County in Virginia, Henry County and Liberty County in Georgia, Early County in Georgia, Douglas County in Georgia), and a youth training center in Nevada. Oregon DOC and Georgia Correctional Industries appear repeatedly across multiple meat and poultry procurements. Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with scattered activity in Missouri, Virginia, and Nevada. Representative recent opportunities include Head Start of Greater Dallas, Inc.'s IFB 26-GP (June 24, 2026 due date) for approximately 32,409 cases of frozen foods, produce, and meat products under CACFP requirements with an estimated value of $969,460.94; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 (July 13, 2026 due date) for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with historical spend of $1.5 million; and Oregon DOC's multiple ITBs for cooked turkey, chicken strips raw, and ground poultry ranging from 40,000 to 200,000 pounds per solicitation with per-pound pricing and FOB Destination delivery to Salem. The code shows strong recent activity in meat and poultry procurement but exhibits a mismatch between its nominal scope (goat, processed) and the institutional protein buying that dominates actual solicitations tagged under it.
