About UNSPSC 51171610

UNSPSC 51171610 Senna glycosides or sennosides is a Commodity code with minimal apparent alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code — Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department RFP 2026-327 for offender specimen collection and drug testing services — centers on collection logistics, laboratory testing (immunoassay screening with LC/MS/MS or GC/MS confirmation), and result reporting for approximately 25,031 annual tests across two sites in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The scope includes staffing collection facilities, operating an Interactive Voice Response notification system, and supporting multiple testing methodologies (five-panel, six-panel, oral fluid, and hair testing). This is a drug-testing-program solicitation, not a pharmaceutical procurement for senna-based products. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source or that the code's nominal scope bears no practical relation to what is currently being bought under it in state and local markets.

No evidence in the recent-opportunities record supports meaningful activity in senna glycosides or sennosides procurement at the state or local level. The single identified opportunity is geographically limited to Texas (Collin County) and functionally unrelated to the code's stated commodity. Without additional opportunities in the source, no pattern of issuing bodies, geographic concentration, or representative procurements can be characterized for this code.
