UNSPSC 50622100: Non GMO brussel sprout purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO brussel sprouts. 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 50622100 Non GMO brussel sprout purees is a Class code that encompasses fresh, frozen, and shelf-stable food products for institutional food service operations. State and local governments solicit under this code to supply meals, snacks, and food-service consumables to detention facilities, state hospitals, supported living centers, schools, and senior services programs. The issuing bodies include state health and human services departments, state corrections agencies, county boards of commissioners, school districts, and state comptroller offices acting on behalf of multiple agencies. Recent solicitations show that actual procurement spans a broad range of food items—proteins, produce, dairy, bakery goods, condiments, and food-service supplies—rather than brussel sprouts or purees specifically. The code's nominal title does not reflect the scope of work being bought; state and local agencies use this classification to source bulk consumable foods and related supplies across dozens of line items per contract.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with Texas representing the largest recent volume through the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) and the Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHSC solicitation for supplemental food and consumables (IFB HHS0016792V2, posted May 2026, 210 line items, maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years); the Oregon Department of Corrections canned-tomatoes procurement (IFB S2910000017145, posted June 2026, 7,616 cases, prior purchase at $13.75 per case); Ben Hill County Schools' school-nutrition food bid (IFB #26271, posted May 2026, bids due June 15, 2026, multiple categories across four school locations); Burke County Public Schools' food bid (IFB PE55037NONST2027000000007, posted May 2026, nearly 400 line items across five schools); and the Texas HHSC Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables procurement (IFB HHS0018082, posted October 2026, 22 line items, bids due October 23, 2026). Award criteria typically prioritize lowest responsive and responsible bidder or best value, with firm fixed pricing required at bid, delivery within 7 to 72 hours standard, and F.O.B. Destination terms common. Bidders must often provide references, liability insurance, HACCP plans, and compliance certifications including E-Verify, debarment, and suspension status.
