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

UNSPSC 50423237 Dried lancelot corn is a Commodity code representing dried bean and legume products procured by state and local institutions for bulk food service operations. State and local governments buy these items primarily for correctional facilities, child and adult care programs, and educational institutions, where they serve as core protein and nutritional staples in meal preparation. The scope encompasses triple-cleaned dried beans meeting USDA grading standards, moisture-content specifications, and foreign-material thresholds suitable for institutional cooking. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections, state purchasing offices acting on behalf of multiple agencies, correctional industries divisions, and municipal governments supporting federally funded meal programs. Specifications typically demand compliance with FDA, USDA, HACCP, and Good Manufacturing Practice standards, with delivery on palletized loads to centralized distribution centers or direct to meal-service locations.

Recent solicitations reflect strong activity across Oregon, Georgia, Illinois, and Texas. The Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) issued an IFB for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans with a June 19, 2026 response deadline, applying a combined 10% Oregon-preference scoring (5% for in-state fabrication, 5% for in-state headquarters), with the historical price at $0.493 per pound as of August 2025. Georgia Correctional Industries posted an RFQ (92100ERFQ0020612027) for kidney beans in 880-bag increments due October 9, 2026, requiring all-inclusive delivery pricing with strict specification-sheet compliance and no use of compliance shortcuts. The State of Oregon also solicited bids on dried black beans, triple-cleaned (S2910000017705) due August 21, 2026, for institutional use across state agencies and educational institutions. The City of Edinburg, Texas, sought food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving approximately 400 children daily, with a local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051 offering price preference to vendors within city limits. Contracts typically run 12 to 27 months with optional renewals, and all-inclusive pricing with no separate freight or tariff reimbursement is standard across these procurements.
