UNSPSC 50131625: In shell checked and dirty egg industrial from chickens

Includes chicken eggs in the shell that have cracked shells and/or have dirt on the surface that makes the eggs unsuitable for use as a table egg. These eggs are typically those that were rejected during a quality sorting process. Eggs may be unwashed, washed, or washed and oiled. Excludes eggs that have been cooked.

UNSPSC 50131625 In shell checked and dirty egg industrial from chickens is a Commodity code that covers fresh eggs delivered to correctional facilities and school districts in Colorado and Georgia. State and local governments buying under this code procure USDA Grade A brown or white eggs in loose-pack cases (15 or 30 dozen per case) for food service operations, with strict specifications for freshness (stamped and dated no more than 17 days prior to delivery), temperature control (not exceeding 45 degrees Fahrenheit), and delivery timing. The Colorado Department of Corrections dominates recent activity, issuing dozens of Documented Quotes (RFQs) for eggs across its facility network; the Early County Board of Education in Georgia and the State of Georgia also solicit under this code. All-inclusive pricing on an F.O.B. Destination basis is standard, with vendors absorbing transportation costs and no surcharges or taxes permitted. Price serves as the primary award criterion, though sample quality and lead time also factor into evaluation. Vendor disqualification for three separate non-deliveries within agreed timeframes is standard contract language across all opportunities.

Colorado Department of Corrections has issued more than two dozen fresh-egg solicitations since May 2026, with response dates ranging from May through October 2026 and delivery requirements typically occurring within one to three weeks of award. Representative recent opportunities include DQ1CAAA20270001241 (Fresh Eggs – BVCF, CCCW, DWCF), an IFB posted October 9, 2026, with a bid deadline of October 15, 2026 for delivery during the week of October 19–23, 2026 to three facilities; DQ1CAAA20270001141, an RFQ posted September 25, 2026, due October 1, 2026, covering five facility locations with 420 cases of 30-dozen packs; and DQ1CAAA20260005191, an RFQ posted June 12, 2026, due June 18, 2026, for 360 cases across five locations. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued an RFQ for food and non-food products to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, due June 8, 2026, encompassing approximately 300 food items and 60 non-food supplies with contract period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The State of Georgia issued a food, supplies, and kitchen products bid (PE55645NONST2026000000009) due June 22, 2026. Colorado activity concentrates on weekly or biweekly rolling solicitations across multiple correctional facilities (Buena Vista, Sterling, Denver Women's, Central Warehouse, Arkansas Valley, Limon, and Arrowhead Valley complexes), with no guaranteed minimum quantities and CDOC reserving the right to award to multiple bidders or cancel. All vendors must register with the Colorado Secretary of State and complete enhanced criminal background investigations within 30 days of award; Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses may submit documentation for consideration, though no mandatory set-asides appear in recent notices.
