UNSPSC 50621840: Non GMO moth bean purees

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO moth 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 50621840 Non GMO moth bean purees is a Commodity code that nominally names a specific legume product, but recent state and local solicitations show the code is being applied to broad food-service procurement across institutional settings—prepared foods, shelf-stable staples, produce, proteins, dairy, and consumable supplies for state facilities, school districts, and county operations. The work being solicited spans routine bulk food supply contracts for cafeterias, canteens, kitchens, and food-service operations at correctional facilities, state-supported living centers, schools, and county senior-services programs. Issuing bodies include Texas state health and human services departments, school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), county governments (Gwinnett County), the Oregon Department of Corrections, and Georgia state agencies. The scope encompasses both commodity foods (canned vegetables, rice, pasta, proteins, condiments) and food-service supplies (containers, napkins, gloves, trays), with delivery F.O.B. Destination and firm, fixed pricing typically required across initial contract terms. Vendors must meet USDA grade standards, provide references, maintain liability insurance, comply with E-Verify and debarment certifications, and often respond to hundreds of line items across multiple product categories.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued multiple IFBs in 2026—most recently HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables, due October 23, 2026), HHS0017449 (El Paso State Supported Living Center food and consumables, RFP due July 13, 2026), and HHS0016792v2 (statewide supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers, IFB due March 19, 2026, with a three-year potential value of $4.5 million). In Georgia, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable foods (due October 19, 2026), and Burke County Public Schools sought grocery bids across nearly 400 line items for five schools (due June 5, 2026). The Oregon Department of Corrections procured 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026). Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across multiple warehouse locations (due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum). School districts including Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia, IFB due June 15, 2026) and the State of Illinois (FY-27 IVHQ quarterly food order, due June 26, 2026) also solicited under or near this code. The code shows consistent institutional food-service demand but little evidence of procurement specifically for non-GMO moth bean purees as a standalone product.
