UNSPSC 50131633: Egg extract from chickens

Includes fractions of a component of a chicken egg for use in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic or food industry. Typical egg extracts are substances such as lysozyme, avidin, vitamins and lipids.

UNSPSC 50131633 Egg extract from chickens is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it center on whole eggs and egg products procured for school nutrition programs rather than isolated egg extract. School districts in Georgia and Connecticut are the primary issuing bodies, soliciting eggs as line items within broader food-service and meal-preparation contracts that span produce, proteins, dairy, and pantry staples. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases solicited eggs among 115 commodity line items for the Board of Education Nutrition Center (IFB BNB053266, due June 26, 2026), and the Douglas County School System in Georgia procured fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two (RFP SN 26-004, due March 4, 2026). Early County Board of Education and City Schools of Decatur, both in Georgia, solicited eggs as standalone items or within broader frozen-foods and grocery procurements. Vendors must comply with Buy American provisions requiring domestically produced and processed foods to the maximum extent practical, maintain HACCP plans, carry minimum general liability insurance ($500,000 to $1 million depending on jurisdiction), and deliver to schools with advance appointment and temperature-controlled logistics.

The code shows recent activity concentrated in Georgia and Connecticut. The Douglas County School System (GEC Buying Cooperative) represents a multi-district cooperative purchasing vehicle spanning 30 school districts across two geographic areas, signaling that eggs are procured through both individual district solicitations and regional cooperative frameworks. School districts typically award eggs on a line-item basis to lowest-qualified pricing, with contract terms running July 1 through June 30 of the following year and renewal options up to five years. Pricing remains firm for 30 days to 15 days from award, with subsequent adjustments tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Urner Barry reporting. Egg vendors are expected to maintain backup stock for 24-hour emergency delivery and accept orders through TITAN or similar school-nutrition ordering systems. The competitive landscape includes both direct-delivery vendors and distributor relationships; cooperative frameworks like GEC allow multiple vendors to supply different product categories based on competitive pricing.
