UNSPSC 50486612: Hubbard squash purees

The variety of winter squashes and winter pumpkins known as hubbard squash which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486612 Hubbard squash purees is a Commodity code that encompasses processed vegetable products for institutional foodservice, as evidenced by state and local procurement activity sourcing multi-ingredient food supply contracts for schools, correctional facilities, and health and human services agencies. State and local governments buy purees and other processed vegetables under this code as components of broader food-service procurement rather than as standalone line items; the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations explicitly for hubbard squash puree alone, and instead reflects the code's integration into larger weekly food orders and quarterly grocery contracts where multiple vegetable products, including purees, are bundled together. Issuing bodies pursuing work under this code include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and state facilities (Illinois Veterans Home). School districts represent the dominant issuing body across recent activity, with multiple concurrent procurements for food service supply across K–12 settings.

Recent procurement activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Oregon, Missouri, Virginia, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due Jul 13, 2026, with historical annual value of $1.5 million); Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for comprehensive food products including fresh and frozen produce, meats, dairy, and seasonings (due Jun 15, 2026); the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across two Georgia areas (due Mar 4, 2026, with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two); and Burke County Public Schools' sealed bid for comprehensive grocery procurement across nearly 400 line items (due Jun 5, 2026, anticipated award Jun 16, 2026). School district contracts typically run July 1 through June 30 with renewal options of three to four additional one-year terms, while state agency and corrections contracts span variable periods with similar renewal structures. Pricing across all procurement types is firm and fixed for the initial contract term, with allowances for midterm adjustments tied to USDA or Consumer Price Index documentation where specified.
