About UNSPSC 51131509

UNSPSC 51131509 Ferric ammonium citrate is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Sourcewell RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026—solicits law enforcement equipment on behalf of multiple counties and public entities, not ferric ammonium citrate or related chemical products. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (a specialty chemical used primarily in analytical and laboratory applications) and the actual procurement (broad law enforcement equipment) indicates that this code does not reflect active state and local buying patterns for ferric ammonium citrate itself.

Sourcewell, a State of Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued the RFP under Washington state cooperative purchasing law (RCW 39.34) with participation from Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, along with jurisdictions across the United States and Canada. The resulting contract is structured as a cooperative purchasing vehicle available to governmental agencies, K-12 school districts, higher education institutions, nonprofits, and tribal governments. No recent state or local opportunities for ferric ammonium citrate itself are evident in current procurement activity.
