UNSPSC 51124503 Glimepiride is a Commodity code representing pharmaceutical active ingredients procured by state and local emergency response and healthcare agencies. Recent activity shows that state and local governments use this code to source emergency medications and related pharmaceutical supplies, though the single recent opportunity tagged to this code actually concerns a broader emergency-response medication procurement. The City of Tampa's Purchasing Department issued IFB 26P00188 in April 2026 for Advanced Life Support Medications to be delivered to Tampa Fire Rescue in Hillsborough County, Florida, soliciting four specific medication line items (Labetalol, Epinephrine, Adenosine, and Diltiazem) totaling an estimated contract value of $40,000. The bid was due April 8, 2026, and the contract term runs one year with options to renew for two additional one-year periods plus unilateral extension rights for up to three 30-day periods at the City's discretion.

The geographic scope of recent activity under this code is limited to Florida based on the single identified opportunity. Issuing bodies soliciting under this Commodity code include municipal fire and emergency services departments, which source medications through sealed competitive bid processes. The Tampa procurement required vendors to meet strict product specifications including nine-month minimum expiration dates from acceptance, ten-calendar-day delivery timelines, 365-day defect warranties, and compliance with OSHA Safety Data Sheets and WCAG 2.2 accessibility standards. The City of Tampa designated the opportunity for Small Local Business Enterprise (SLBE) sheltered market participation with a 5 percent bid discount, not to exceed $10,000, and reserved the right to award by division or aggregate, in whole or in part, with cancellation rights upon ten days' notice for cause or thirty days' notice without cause.
