State and local buyers under this code include Texas state health and human services agencies (procuring for multiple state supported living centers), Oregon Department of Corrections, and Georgia school districts. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission is a repeat buyer, having issued multiple IFBs for consumable food products that encompass canned tomatoes alongside complementary items.
