UNSPSC 85151600: Nutrition issues

In this classification, this class is composed of those who provide the breadth and depth of services to be a nutrition issue based service provider

UNSPSC 85151600 Nutrition issues, a Class code, encompasses professional nutrition advisory services, dietary program management, and food service coordination that state and local governments procure for school nutrition programs, senior meals, institutional dietary compliance, and public health initiatives. The recent solicitations show a mix of dietician staffing, nutrition training and education, nutritional services program administration, and edible food recovery infrastructure development—work driven by regulatory requirements for school meal standards, aging-population nutrition support, and state waste-diversion mandates. Issuing bodies include state health and human services departments, state departments of education, county waste authorities, municipalities, and special-purpose public entities. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer, issuing multiple nutrition-related RFPs and IFBs in the past sixty days. Work spans direct service delivery (on-call dieticians, congregate and home-delivered meals), program administration and training coordination, and grant-funded infrastructure projects for food recovery and distribution.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, California, Arizona, Michigan, Kentucky, and Rhode Island. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017575 for School Health Program training services with responses due July 30, 2026—covering nutrition education, school health services, and physical activity training across five topic areas with a mandatory VetHUB subcontracting plan (26% veteran utilization) and historical annual spend of $161,855.00; the City of San Antonio's RFP for comprehensive nutritional services to Pre-K 4 SA early childhood programs under the Child and Adult Care Food Program, with CACFP-compliant meal preparation, delivery, and consulting, responses due June 11, 2026; the City of Peoria, Arizona RFP P260042 for congregate meals, home-delivered meals, and food pantry programs serving low-income and homebound seniors and adults with disabilities at the William L.
