UNSPSC 50481904: Barlotti bean purees

The variety of beans known as barlotti beans which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50481904 Barlotti bean purees (Commodity) shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a single legume product, but recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code do not center on barlotti bean purees specifically. Instead, the opportunities soliciting under or near this code involve broad food procurement for state institutions, school districts, and correctional facilities—primarily IFBs and RFQs for consumable food inventories encompassing dozens or hundreds of line items across proteins, produce, dairy, condiments, and prepared foods. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple opportunities (HHS0018082 and HHS0017449) requesting bids on mixed consumable foods for state supported living centers; the Lufkin facility posting (due October 23, 2026) lists 22 line items including prepared foods and supplies, while the El Paso facility posting references prior annual spend of $1.5 million and a maximum three-year value of up to $4.5 million. The Oregon Department of Corrections, Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, and Burke County Public Schools have similarly solicited broad food procurement bids covering hundreds of line items each. These opportunities suggest the code may be mistagged or that barlotti bean purees, if purchased at all under this code, represent a minor line item within larger institutional food contracts rather than a standalone procurement focus.

Texas dominates the recent posting volume, with five HHS and TDCJ solicitations posted between May and October 2026, followed by Georgia (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, and the State of Georgia), and Oregon (canned tomatoes IFB and potatoes IFB). Illinois and Colorado appear in the broader dataset but with less detail. Institutional buyers—state health and human services departments, correctional departments, school nutrition programs, and county social services—drive this code's activity. Representative opportunities include the Texas HHS IFB HHS0018082 (consumables for Lufkin State Supported Living Center, due October 23, 2026, IFB), Gwinnett County's IWQ 140229 (approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items, due October 19, 2026, IWQ), and the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026) priced at $13.75 per case in the prior February 2026 buy. The code does not show sustained procurement focused on barlotti bean purees as a primary commodity; vendors pursuing this code should expect to compete on mixed institutional food supply contracts rather than single-product specialization.
