UNSPSC 50112216: Non gmo specialty meat, processed with additions

Products (e.g, dog) from a single species not of the Class Aves and other than beef, bison, boar, deer, frog, goat, horse, lamb, land snail, llama, pork, rabbit, snake, turtle, or veal, these products have been grown, and harvested in a manner that qualifies them to be certified as Non GMO.

UNSPSC 50112216 Non-GMO specialty meat, processed with additions is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure processed meat products—primarily beef, pork, and poultry—for school nutrition programs, institutional food services, and farm-to-school initiatives. Recent solicitations show districts buying chicken processing services, locally raised and processed protein with certifications such as American Grassfed and G.A.P. 5-Step Animal Welfare Standards, USDA commodity product processing (fully-cooked patties, crumbles, drumsticks, wings, and specialty items), and supplemental meat and protein items for state hospitals and supported living centers. School districts dominate the issuing body mix, including Cherokee County School District (Georgia), Garland Independent School District (Texas), Bulloch County School District (Georgia), Henry County Schools (Georgia), DeKalb County School District (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia), alongside state-level agencies such as Texas Health and Human Services Commission and the State of Georgia. A single state health and human services procurement on the institutional side targets 23 statewide facilities with a maximum three-year value of $4.5 million.

Recent activity clusters heavily in Georgia and Texas. Representative opportunities include Bulloch County School District's RFP for fresh locally raised and processed protein (beef, pork, and poultry) with 200-mile sourcing radius and monthly July-March deliveries due May 4, 2026; DeKalb County School District's ITB 26-729 for USDA product processing (fully-cooked meats and poultry) due March 31, 2026; Cherokee County School District's RFP for chicken processing services due June 11, 2026; and Garland Independent School District's RFP for farm-to-school products including local meats due July 23, 2026. Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0016792 for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, with a maximum contract value of $4.5 million over three years and an addendum-extended deadline of March 19, 2026 (subsequently February 23, 2026 in an earlier version). Evaluation typically weights price between 30 and 50 points, with quality, service capability, local sourcing preference, and compliance with HACCP plans, food safety certifications, and Buy American requirements adding substantial value beyond lowest-price award.
