UNSPSC 50112052 Quail, processed without additions is a Commodity code under which state and local governments purchase prepared poultry and game bird products for institutional food service operations. The recent opportunities in this code reveal that state and local buyers are acquiring processed game birds and specialty poultry items alongside broader food and consumable products to support state-operated facilities, school districts, and other public entities with recurring meal service requirements. The solicitations show a mix of single-item procurements and multi-line food bids where processed poultry sits within a larger scope of proteins, produce, dairy, and kitchen supplies. Issuing bodies include state health and human services commissions (notably the Texas Health and Human Services Commission), county boards of education, and state purchasing divisions conducting centralized procurement for multiple agency users.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Texas and Georgia. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 in June 2026 for food and consumable products including proteins to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, with responses due July 13, 2026 and a historical monthly spend of approximately $1.5 million over a twelve-month period. The State of Georgia posted solicitation PE55645NONST2026000000009 in May 2026 for food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 response date. Early County Board of Education in Georgia issued a line-by-line food bid (PE55045NONST2027000000006) due June 8, 2026 for meats, poultry, and other items supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, emphasizing domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, and products without artificial additives. A third opportunity with minimal available detail (S2910000017577, posted July 2026, due August 6, 2026) also references poultry procurement but lacks substantive scope documentation. The code shows modest recent activity; no other state or region appears in the available records.
