UNSPSC 50501902: Veterinary multinutrient block

Block that provides micro-organisms rich in sources of nutrients for animals.

UNSPSC 50501902 Veterinary multinutrient block is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure animal feed, nutritional supplements, and veterinary pharmaceutical supplies for institutional livestock and animal care operations. Recent solicitations under the code show procurement of monocalcium phosphate (a mineral supplement), general animal feed and hay, veterinary pharmaceuticals and clinic supplies, and specialized veterinary services including boarding and diagnostic care for law enforcement canine units. The issuing bodies span state departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, Texas Department of Public Safety), county governments (Orange County Sheriff-Coroner in California, DeKalb County in Georgia, Williamson County in Texas), and county animal shelter operations. Texas dominates recent activity, with three separate monocalcium phosphate IFBs from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice alone over three months (August through October 2026), plus a large statewide procurement from the Texas Comptroller covering 26 line items of feed and mineral supplements for multiple TDCJ prison facilities and DPS operations.

Recent opportunities include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's monocalcium phosphate IFB IW268558 due October 28, 2026, submitted electronically through the Bonfire portal; the Texas Comptroller's animal feed, vitamins, and supplements IFB 304T-26-325M2.1 due May 27, 2026, covering 26 line items including 10,000 tons of yellow corn, 18,200 bales of coastal bermuda hay, and multiple mineral supplements for delivery to seven TDCJ facilities; and the Orange County Sheriff-Coroner's specialized veterinary services IFB 060-3113519-MB due September 3, 2026, soliciting 24/7 veterinary and boarding services for the K-9 unit on a three-year firm fixed-fee contract with two renewal options and a 5% local small business and DVBE preference. DeKalb County's ITB 2026-085-ITB for feed, hay, and shavings at Little Creek Horse Farm (due July 23, 2026) and Williamson County's IFB 26IFB24 for veterinary pharmaceutical and clinic supplies (due April 23, 2026) show broader county-level animal care procurement. Response deadlines typically run 10–40 days from posting; all recent solicitations use electronic submission platforms; and the Texas Comptroller procurement includes a pre-bid conference scheduled for May 14, 2026.
