UNSPSC 51122900: Antiarrythmic alkaline earth metals

This classification denotes based in part or whole on metals that constitute the group 2 of the periodic table (barium, beryllium, calcium, magnesium, radium, and strontium), substances called alkaline earth metals, that prevent or treat irregular heartbeat, disturbances of normal rhythmic heart beating, or normal operation of myocardial contraction, thus the term ANTIARRYTHMIC ALKALINE EARTH METALS.

UNSPSC 51122900 Antiarrhythmic alkaline earth metals is a Class code under which state and local governments procure emergency medical medications, specifically advanced life support pharmaceuticals for fire rescue and emergency medical services. The City of Tampa's Purchasing Department is currently soliciting Advanced Life Support Medications (Bid No. 26-P-00188) for use by Tampa Fire Rescue, sourcing four specific medication line items including Labetalol HCI, Epinephrine, Adenosine, and Diltiazem vials in specified quantities. State and local issuing bodies using this code are primarily municipal fire and rescue departments and emergency medical service providers. The scope of work covers supply of critical cardiac and hemodynamic medications maintained to strict expiration standards, with vendors responsible for delivery within ten calendar days, warranty against defects for a minimum of 365 days, and replacement logistics for expired stock before the nine-month minimum shelf-life threshold.

The Tampa Fire Rescue solicitation represents recent activity in Florida. The City of Tampa issued an IFB (Bid No. 26-P-00188) with a response deadline of April 8, 2026, and an estimated contract value of $40,000.00; the bid required electronic submission through the OpenGov eProcurement Portal with award to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder within 120 days of bid opening. The contract offers a one-year initial term with two one-year renewal options and three additional 30-day extension periods at the City's unilateral discretion. The solicitation included a Small Local Business Enterprise (SLBE) sheltered market designation with a 5 percent bid discount for SLBE participation capped at $10,000. Vendors were required to submit comprehensive accessibility documentation including a Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) conformance report for WCAG 2.2 Level AA and Section 508 compliance, along with OSHA Hazard Communication Standard Safety Data Sheets for all medications supplied. This represents the only recent opportunity visible under this code; broader activity across state and local jurisdictions is not supported by available records.
