UNSPSC 50626737: Non GMO lancelot corn purees

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO lancelot corn. 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 50626737 Non GMO lancelot corn purees — a Commodity code — shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The code's name does not match the substantive work documented in recent solicitations; instead, state and local buyers are posting opportunities for broad food procurement across institutional foodservice — school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state-supported living centers — that span fresh produce, proteins, dairy, frozen goods, canned vegetables, and related consumables rather than specialty corn purees. The single Illinois Veterans Home quarterly food order (solicitation 26497DVAQUINCB52821, RFQ due June 26, 2026) and Texas Health and Human Services El Paso State Supported Living Center food and consumables contract (solicitation HHS0017449, IFB due July 13, 2026) are tagged with this code but request broad institutional foodservice portfolios, not non-GMO corn purees specifically. This code does not appear to reflect actual current buying patterns in state and local procurement.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix across the broader food-procurement space these opportunities represent, with Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Muscogee County School System (Georgia), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) all posting substantial annual food supply contracts in the May–June 2026 window. State corrections departments (Oregon, Texas), state health and human services agencies (Texas), and independent school districts solicit regularly. Geographic activity centers on Georgia (seven recent procurements), Texas (four), and Oregon (three), with secondary activity in Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia. Most school food contracts run July 1 through June 30 annually, with responses typically due in April–June; state-agency and corrections foodservice contracts follow varied fiscal-year calendars. Without direct evidence of recent solicitations specifically requesting non-GMO lancelot corn purees as a line item, this code appears to be either a legacy or mislabeled classification that does not correspond to active state and local buying activity in 2026.
