UNSPSC 42231804 Pediatric disease specific supplemental formulas or bars or puddings is a Commodity code that captures state and local government purchases of specialized infant and pediatric nutritional products, with recent activity dominated by state WIC program infant formula rebate contracts. The recent opportunities show little alignment with the code's nominal scope; the primary active solicitations are infant formula rebate programs (not disease-specific pediatric supplements) and unrelated durable medical equipment or commodity chemical purchases that happen to carry this code designation. State and local bodies soliciting under this code include state health and human services departments managing WIC programs, developmental centers, county governments, and specialized boards of commissioners. Michigan's Department of Health and Human Services accounts for multiple recent rebate program opportunities spanning February through April 2026, indicating concentrated activity around WIC infant formula procurement cycles.

Michigan dominates the geographic footprint for this code, with five separate RFP iterations of the MDHHS WIC Infant Formula Rebate Program posted between February 17 and April 17, 2026, seeking a single contractor to supply milk-based and soy-based infant formulas in powder, liquid concentrate, and ready-to-feed forms to serve approximately 41,100 WIC infants across 1,343 authorized vendors in all 83 counties over a 60-month term (November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2031). The most recent iteration closed April 24, 2026, with Mead Johnson & Company, LLC recommended for award at $38,223.023 total monthly net price against Abbott Laboratories' $232,243.763. Outside Michigan, activity is sporadic: Illinois (Murray Developmental Center durable medical equipment bids in June 2026), Florida (Pasco County copper sulfate chemical procurement), and Georgia (Gwinnett County grocery supplemental purchase in May 2026) show isolated, unrelated procurements tagged to this code. The code shows limited recent activity aligned to its pediatric disease-specific supplemental scope; current state and local purchasing under the designation tracks primarily infant formula rebate programs rather than condition-specific pediatric nutrition products.
