UNSPSC 51162307 Acetaminophen/caffeine/guaifenesin/phenylephrine is a Commodity code that in recent state and local solicitations covers parenteral pharmaceutical products and medical supplies delivered to correctional and public health facilities. The Washington State Department of Corrections' RFQQ RFQQK13020 (due October 7, 2026) solicits parenteral nutrition solutions, intravenous solutions, and controlled substances for eight correctional facilities across the state, with bidders required to demonstrate documented experience preparing and delivering IV solutions and adjusting nutritional preparations within strict turnaround windows (24 hours for PN bags, 8 hours for other parenteral products). Issuing bodies under this code include state correction departments and county health authorities; the source shows activity from a state DOC and a county health initiative, with the state correctional buyer setting qualification bars including Washington State business licensure, successful Washington State Patrol NCIC clearance for all service personnel, and specified commercial general liability ($1 million per occurrence/$2 million aggregate), professional liability ($2 million per occurrence/aggregate), business automobile liability ($1 million per occurrence/$2 million aggregate), and cyber liability ($2 million per occurrence/aggregate) insurance.

Activity concentrates in Washington and Florida. The Washington State Department of Corrections RFQQ anticipates selecting up to three contractors per region across West, Central, and East zones, with an initial contract term running November 26, 2026 through June 30, 2030 and fixed pricing for the first two years. Seminole County, Florida's IFB 60459723LAS (posted June 30, 2026) procures 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually for quarterly delivery to the Seminole County Community Health Building, though the due date shown (July 26, 2023) predates the posting date and may reflect a data error. The Washington solicitation actively encourages participation from small businesses (25%), minority-owned businesses (10%), women-owned businesses (6%), and veteran-owned businesses (5%) certified through appropriate state agencies and requires a Subcontractor Inclusion Plan identifying qualified minority-owned, women-owned, and disadvantaged subcontractors where feasible.
