UNSPSC 50192800: Savory pies and quiches and pasties

UNSPSC 50192800 Savory pies and quiches and pasties is a Class code that encompasses the supply of prepared food items—particularly bread, bakery products, beverages, candy, and other ready-to-consume or minimally-prepared food—to state institutions, school districts, and municipalities for consumption by residents, patients, students, and event attendees. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show a heavy skew toward institutional food service for state hospitals and supported living centers, with secondary activity around school district catering and event food procurement. The issuing bodies are predominantly state health and human services agencies (particularly the Texas Health and Human Services Commission), independent school districts, and city procurement offices. Texas dominates recent activity, followed by Pennsylvania and Georgia. A representative procurement is the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017445 for bread and bakery products to supply state hospitals and state-supported living centers statewide, with responses due July 13, 2026, covering over 50 line items including sandwich breads, buns, bagels, and tortillas and a historical annual spend of $2 million; another is the City of Philadelphia's micro-purchase IFB B2728003 for food and beverages for the Kensington Blitz event with a response deadline of September 15, 2026.

The code sees the broadest procurement depth in Texas, where the Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs since mid-June 2026 for food service groceries, canteen groceries, bread and bakery products, and candy and beverages for Mexia State Supported Living Center and Big Spring State Hospital—all with firm fixed pricing, strict specification compliance, 90-percent minimum bid-item thresholds, and delivery windows between 7:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. on specified dates, with historical spend ranging from $55,000 to $2 million annually depending on product category. Katy Independent School District in Harris County, Texas, issued RFP 2402AK-B for restaurant catering, delivery, and mobile food services with a June 15, 2026 deadline, seeking an expanded vendor panel for campus and departmental functions. The State of Georgia posted a solicitation (PE55645NONST2026000000009) for food, supplies, and other kitchen products due June 22, 2026, though details are limited. These procurements typically demand firm fixed pricing, high bid-item completion rates (90 to 100 percent), warranty and complaint-resolution guarantees with 72-hour response and 90-day resolution windows, and vendor performance tracking through state systems; many incorporate HUB (historically underutilized business) subcontracting plan requirements or compliance certifications specific to Texas law.
