The Texas Automated Nutrition System (TANS) is a web-based system designed to support the administration of federal nutrition programs. TANS allows program sponsors, ESC users, and state users to manage their nutrition program applications, claims, compliance reviews, and more in a robust, streamlined system built using current technology and simple navigation.
Though TANS will have a fresh look, new navigation, and slight process changes, it will serve the same role as TX-UNPS.
TANS will be used for the following federal nutrition programs:
• School Nutrition Program (NSLP and SBP)
• Fresh Fruit and Vegetables (FFVP)
• Special Milk Program (SMP)
• Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP and DCH)
• Summer Meal Programs (SFSP and SSO)
• Food Distribution Program (TEFAP, CSFP, and S/FMNP)
Efforts are in full swing towards a transition to the Texas Automated Nutrition (TANS). We want to ensure a smooth implementation process full of training resources that will make the launch successful. Until we launch TANS, TX-UNPS will continue providing online interfaces for managing your programs.
