UNSPSC 50451825: Frozen organic green romano beans

The variety of organic beans known as organic green romano beans that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50451825 Frozen organic green romano beans is a Commodity code that encompasses frozen, processed vegetable products for institutional food service procurement. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily school districts and state education agencies procuring frozen vegetables as part of comprehensive child nutrition service contracts. The scope of work includes supply and delivery of frozen produce items meeting USDA compliance standards, HACCP food safety plans, nutritional specifications (whole-grain standards, low-sodium formulations, zero trans fat), proper refrigeration and temperature control upon delivery (typically 41 degrees Fahrenheit or below), and labeling with nutrition fact labels and CN labels. Vendors must demonstrate multi-year experience in public school food service, maintain commercial general liability insurance (typically $1 million per occurrence), comply with Buy American provisions and E-Verify requirements, provide food recall procedures and biosecurity policies, and allow piggybacking by other districts on identical contract terms. School districts award contracts on a line-item basis to responsive and responsible bidders offering lowest pricing, with initial contract terms typically running July 1 through June 30 with renewal options for up to three additional one-year terms based on performance.
