UNSPSC 50621831: Non GMO jacob's cattle bean purees

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO jacob's cattle beans. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50621831 Non GMO jacob's cattle bean purees is a Commodity code that covers specialty legume products, though the recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not actually target non-GMO Jacob's cattle bean purees. Instead, state and local governments soliciting under this code are buying general consumable food products—shelf-stable proteins, canned vegetables, frozen meats, dairy, grains, and food service supplies—for institutional food service operations including state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and senior services. The issuing bodies are primarily state health and human services departments, state correctional agencies, county commissions, school districts, and special-purpose public institutions. Texas Health and Human Services Commission and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice have appeared multiple times in recent solicitations, alongside Georgia school districts, Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, and the Oregon Department of Corrections.

Recent activity spans Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (bids due October 23, 2026), which calls for 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies on F.O.B. Destination terms with seven-day delivery; Gwinnett County's IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for Community Services (quotes due October 19, 2026 at 3:00 p.m.), requiring delivery within 72 hours to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center; Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for school nutrition products across four school locations (bids due June 15, 2026), with Buy American requirements and delivery to multiple sites; and the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned tomatoes bid (bids due June 19, 2026), which called for approximately 7,616 cases with a 5 percent preference for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-resident bidders. Pricing is uniformly firm and fixed on a per-unit basis, delivery terms are F.O.B. Destination with freight included, and all solicitations require references, insurance, and compliance with applicable federal food and employment-verification standards.
