UNSPSC 50423208: Dried bodacious corn

The variety of corn known as bodacious corn that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50423208 Dried bodacious corn, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line within state and local food procurement, but recent solicitations show the code generating minimal directly relevant activity. The single opportunity explicitly tagged to dried corn or close legume equivalents—the Oregon Department of Corrections' procurement of approximately 127,500 pounds of dried pinto beans (ITB S-29100-00016233, due March 20, 2026)—treats dried legumes as institutional food staples for correctional facilities. The ODOC procurement required triple-cleaned U.S. No. 2 or better grade beans with one-year minimum shelf life, delivered FOB Destination in palletized lots, with pricing at approximately $0.43 per pound historically and a combined 10 percent Oregon-preference evaluation credit. State and local issuing bodies deploying this code include state corrections departments, school districts, and county food service operations managing large-volume institutional meal programs; the ODOC appears as a repeat buyer in the recent block with a second similar dried-bean solicitation (S2910000017140, due June 19, 2026, for 42,500 pounds of pinto and red beans). Geographic concentration in the recent block clusters in the Pacific Northwest and Mid-Atlantic, driven primarily by Oregon's ODOC purchasing pattern.

Most solicitations in the recent-opportunities block—including those from Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Muscogee County Schools (Georgia), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice—are tagged to broader food-supply and produce codes rather than dried-corn specifics, indicating that state and local procurement systems often classify bulk institutional food procurement at higher taxonomy levels even when individual line items include dried grains or legumes as component SKUs. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the granular purchasing activity visible in recent RFPs and ITBs suggests that dried bodacious corn procurement, if it occurs, is either bundled into larger master-grocery contracts or represents a minor line item within multi-category food solicitations. Opportunities explicitly naming dried corn as a standalone procurement line are not present in the recent block, limiting visibility into current demand, pricing, or issuing-body patterns specific to this commodity.
