UNSPSC 51131812 Romiplostim (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code. The single recent opportunity is a Sourcewell cooperative purchasing RFP for law enforcement equipment—body armor, duty gear, tactical equipment, and related supplies—which falls outside the pharmaceutical scope of romiplostim, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist used to treat thrombocytopenia. The mismatch suggests a coding or tagging error in the source record rather than active state and local demand for this specific pharmaceutical product under this Commodity code.

The law enforcement equipment solicitation itself is substantial: Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued RFP 061626 on May 12, 2026, with a June 16, 2026 response deadline, on behalf of participating entities across Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties) and numerous jurisdictions throughout the United States and Canada. The resulting contract is structured for cooperative use by thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and public entities. However, this opportunity provides no signal regarding actual state and local procurement activity for romiplostim or related pharmaceutical commodities under this code.
