UNSPSC 50623901: Non GMO china pea purees

The variety of Non GMO green peas known as Non GMO china peas. 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 50623901 Non GMO china pea purees (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. State and local governments buying under this code procure general food service products for institutional meal programs—schools, corrections facilities, and health and human services—but the posted opportunities do not specify pea purees or legume-based products by name. Instead, recent solicitations emphasize broad grocery procurement covering proteins, dairy, produce, canned goods, condiments, and prepared foods. The issuing bodies are school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Douglas County School System in Georgia), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), and state institutional facilities (Illinois Veterans Home). School nutrition programs represent the dominant buyer type, with several multi-district cooperative purchasing arrangements.

Geographic spread covers Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, Oregon, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, with a historical value of $1.5 million annually), Rockwood R-VI School District's grocery items and Net Off Invoice procurement for 2026-27 (electronic bids due April 29, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for comprehensive food products across four schools for FY 2026-27 (sealed bids due June 15, 2026). These solicitations specify USDA compliance, Buy American Act adherence, whole-grain and low-sodium options, HACCP plan implementation, and firm fixed pricing with limited escalation provisions. No posted opportunities explicitly name pea purees, suggesting the code may be underutilized or misaligned with actual procurement tags in state and local systems.
