UNSPSC 51131808 Aminocaproic acid is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local solicitation activity identified under it. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Sourcewell RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment—targets the procurement of tactical and protective gear, weapons, and related equipment for law enforcement agencies rather than pharmaceutical compounds. The code nominally describes a hemostatic agent used in medical and surgical contexts, but no solicitations in the recent record reflect procurement of that product or related pharmaceutical supplies. State and local governments do purchase hemostatic agents and other medical consumables through health departments, emergency services, hospital systems, and corrections agencies, but the recent opportunity record for this code shows a fundamental mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota-based cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline on behalf of participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington State, along with numerous other public jurisdictions throughout the United States and Canada. The procurement is structured to establish a framework agreement available to governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments. Vendors must submit proposals through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal and direct inquiries to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930. The mismatch between this code assignment and the actual work being procured suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or a cooperative purchasing framework that bundles disparate product categories under a single solicitation number. The code does not currently show relevant recent activity aligned with aminocaproic acid or related pharmaceutical procurement.
