About UNSPSC 51161515
UNSPSC 51161515 Montelukast is a Commodity code that nominally covers a specific asthma and allergy maintenance medication; however, the most recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show a significant mismatch with the code's pharmaceutical scope. The three recent solicitations posted between March and June 2026 involve naloxone procurement, career technical education materials and equipment, and galvanized steel pallets — none of which align with montelukast supply or pharmaceutical distribution. State and local procurement offices appear to be misapplying this code to unrelated goods and services, suggesting limited genuine market activity for montelukast itself under this code classification.
The recent activity spans Florida, Texas, and Florida again, with issuing bodies including Seminole County in Florida (seeking naloxone and drug deactivation systems via IFB 60459723LAS, due July 26, 2023), Klein Independent School District in Texas (seeking CTE and advanced academics materials and equipment via RFP 26-101, due June 5, 2026), and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida (seeking galvanized steel pallets via ITB 2600197, due April 3, 2026, estimated value $70,264.60). The code shows no focused procurement activity for montelukast itself across these jurisdictions. Business development professionals should verify code alignment with their actual product or service offerings before pursuing opportunities tagged under 51161515, as the current classification appears to be generating false positives rather than identifying genuine demand for montelukast supply in the state and local market.
