UNSPSC 50626852: Non GMO sinquas purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO sinquas. 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 50626852 Non GMO sinquas purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity in state and local procurement relevant to the code's nominal scope. Recent opportunities tagged with this code do not align with procurement of sinquas purees—a specialized fruit product. Instead, state and local issuing bodies have solicited the code for broad-based food supply contracts spanning produce, dairy, proteins, condiments, and prepared foods for schools, correctional facilities, and state health institutions. The mismatch between the code's description and actual purchasing patterns suggests either incorrect code assignment by issuing bodies or that sinquas purees represent a negligible portion of food procurement under this taxonomy.

School districts dominate recent solicitation activity, with multiple K-12 nutrition programs across Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and Texas posting bids for comprehensive grocery and fresh produce supply contracts. State departments of corrections and health and human services facilities also solicit regularly under this code for institutional food service. Representative recent opportunities include Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB (due April 27, 2026) for 45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens; Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables IFB for state hospitals and supported living centers (due July 13, 2026 for El Paso facility; $1.5 million historical value); Oregon Department of Corrections' canned tomato IFB (due June 19, 2026, 7,616 cases); and Ben Hill County Schools' food bid IFB (due June 15, 2026) covering fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy, and condiments across four school locations. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia (school districts in Savannah-Chatham, Liberty County, Douglas County, Muscogee County, and Burke County), Texas (HHSC and TDCJ facilities), and Oregon (DOC procurement). Illinois Veterans Home and Missouri school districts round out the active jurisdictions. Contract values range from under $100,000 for specialized items to $9 million for multi-year school food supply and distribution agreements. Most solicitations employ IFB or RFP structures with firm fixed pricing for twelve-month or multi-year terms, Buy American Act compliance requirements, and award to lowest responsive, responsible bidders meeting detailed food safety and nutritional specifications.
