UNSPSC 51171608 Glycerine (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The single opportunity posted under this code in the source is Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department RFP 2026-327 for offender specimen collection and drug testing services, which involves laboratory testing, staffing, and result reporting but does not procure glycerine as a consumable input. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the county's opportunity record or that glycerine may be a minor component of laboratory supplies bundled into the broader testing-services contract. State and local procurement activity under this Commodity code does not appear to reflect glycerine as a primary commodity being solicited.

Collin County, located in Texas, issued the single recent opportunity identified. The RFP calls for proposals due July 23, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $600,000 and a two-year initial term commencing September 1, 2026, plus three optional one-year renewals. The contract encompasses operation of two collection sites in Plano and McKinney, immunoassay screening with LC/MS/MS or GC/MS confirmation, electronic result reporting, and alternative testing methodologies, with approximately 25,031 annual tests projected. Vendors must maintain lab certification from SAMHSA, TX DPS, or CAP. The opportunity is funded by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice-Community Justice Assistance Division. The county reserves the right to award in whole or in part to multiple vendors. This code does not show relevant recent activity for glycerine procurement in the state and local market.
