UNSPSC 51131716 Reteplase is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Sourcewell's RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment, due June 16, 2026—solicits tactical and protective gear for law enforcement agencies, not the thrombolytic pharmaceutical product the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a fundamental misclassification in how the opportunity was indexed.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, issued this RFP on behalf of participating entities across Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties) and additional jurisdictions nationwide and in Canada. The resulting contract framework would serve law enforcement agencies, K–12 school districts, higher education institutions, tribal governments, and other public entities through Sourcewell's cooperative purchasing vehicle. No recent activity appears in the source under the actual scope of reteplase procurement—cardiac and stroke-care pharmaceuticals sold to hospitals, emergency departments, or health systems. The code shows little relevant recent activity for pharmaceutical buyers in state and local government.
