UNSPSC 50431812: Dried organic brown lazy wife beans

The variety of organic beans known as organic brown lazy wife beans that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50431812 Dried organic brown lazy wife beans is a Commodity-tier code that in practice covers institutional bulk dried-bean procurement for state agencies, correctional facilities, school districts, and child nutrition programs. State and local governments source dried beans—pinto, red, black, and kidney varieties—in large quantities for meal preparation, institutional food service, and compliance with USDA or state nutrition standards. The issuing bodies include state corrections departments, state procurement offices, municipal school nutrition programs, and independent food service operations serving vulnerable populations. Specifications consistently require triple-cleaned beans meeting U.S. No. 2 or better grade standards, compliance with FDA and HACCP protocols, palletized delivery on wooden four-way pallets, and pricing on an all-inclusive basis with freight and delivery incorporated into unit cost.

Recent activity shows concentrated procurement in Oregon and Georgia, with additional solicitations in Texas and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued IFB S2910000017705 for dried black beans (triple-cleaned) due August 21, 2026, and IFB S2910000017140 for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, with a historical incumbent price of $0.493 per pound and a 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-headquartered suppliers. Georgia Correctional Industries solicited kidney beans via RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027 due October 9, 2026, in increments of 880 bags with electronic PDF submission required and strict specification-sheet formatting rules. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T26300CF for cafeteria food products (including dried beans among approximately 382 line items) with response due May 4, 2026, and contract term through August 31, 2027 with optional renewal periods. Illinois solicited food supply under FY-27 IVHQ (IFB 27497DVAQUINCB52821) due June 26, 2026, but the scope documents are not detailed in available materials. The code shows steady procurement velocity across the second and third quarters of 2026, with correctional and institutional meal service as the primary drivers.
