UNSPSC 50382014: Earliman apricot purees

The variety of apricots known as earliman apricots which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50382014 Earliman apricot purees is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure canned and processed fruit products for institutional food service, though recent solicitations show that issuing bodies tag a broader range of fruit products—applesauce, pears, dried fruit bars, and fresh produce—under similar codes or combined procurement vehicles. The actual buying covers canned and shelf-stable fruit items for correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, state health and human services agencies, and institutional food service, typically in bulk quantities delivered on fixed schedules to centralized distribution points or individual school sites.

Solicitations under this code and related fruit procurement span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), school districts (Austin Independent School District, Dallas Independent School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County School System, Hancock County Schools, Muscogee County School District), and county boards of education (Georgia counties). Oregon Department of Corrections appears in recent activity twice—ITB S-29100-00017453 (posted July 10, 2026, due July 31, 2026) for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at a historical price of $21.84 per case, and ITB S2910000016975 (posted May 18, 2026, due June 2, 2026) for 1,904 cases of canned applesauce at a historical price of $21.827 per case—both requiring delivery to the ODOC Central Distribution Center in Salem and offering a combined 10 percent preference for Oregon goods and Oregon-headquartered bidders. Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products including processed fruit for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with an estimated prior-period value of $1.5 million, and IFB HHS0016792 (posted February 26, 2026, extended to February 23, 2026) for 210 line items of supplemental food and consumables statewide with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. School districts dominate the recent opportunity set, with Dallas ISD issuing RFP JC250079 (posted February 22, 2026, due April 2, 2026) for various food products including fruit items for the 2026-27 school year, and multiple Georgia school districts (Hancock County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, and Douglas County) issuing IFBs and RFPs for fresh produce and food products in March and April 2026 with contract periods running July 2026 through June 2027. Geographic activity clusters in Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, Dallas ISD), Oregon (ODOC), Georgia (multiple school districts), Connecticut (Bridgeport), Illinois (state-level), and Missouri (Rockwood School District), with school district procurement predominating and state-level institutional food service (corrections, health services) as secondary buyers. Pricing in recent opportunities is firm fixed and includes transportation; product compliance with Buy American, USDA commodity standards, and nutritional requirements is standard across solicitations; insurance minimums typically range from $1 million to $2 million general liability; and contract terms commonly run 12 months with renewal options of one to three years.
