UNSPSC 51171716 Lidamidine is a Commodity code that captures pharmaceutical and chemical testing reagents used in drug-screening programs, though state and local procurement activity under this code reflects demand for comprehensive offender drug-testing services rather than the reagent itself. Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department and similar criminal-justice agencies procure specimen collection, laboratory analysis, and result reporting as integrated service packages, with vendors required to supply the full testing methodology stack—immunoassay screening, LC/MS/MS or GC/MS confirmation, and ancillary testing modalities such as oral fluid and hair analysis. Issuing bodies under this code include county community supervision departments and corrections agencies managing probation and parole caseloads; the service scope spans staffing on-site collection facilities, operating randomized notification systems, maintaining SAMHSA and state laboratory certifications, and delivering electronic reporting of results with no additional surcharges beyond the quoted per-test rate.

Collin County, Texas posted RFP 2026-327 for Offender Specimen Collection and Drug Testing Services on September 25, 2026, with a proposal due date of July 23, 2026. The contract carries an estimated value of $600,000 over an initial two-year term with three optional one-year renewals, covering approximately 25,031 annual tests across five-panel and six-panel screens plus confirmatory analysis. The successful vendor must operate collection sites in Plano and McKinney during business hours plus five Saturdays annually, maintain current lab certifications, and submit pricing on a per-test basis across three service models (screening only, confirmation after screening, or screening with automatic confirmation). Award will be made to the responsible contractor offering the best evaluated combination of price and qualifications, with evaluation weighted 30 points for vendor understanding, 25 for firm qualifications, 15 for client references, and 30 for cost, plus optional Phase 2 demonstrations. Funding derives from Texas Department of Criminal Justice appropriations, with anticipated award on August 10, 2026.
