UNSPSC 51172016 Hymecromone, a Commodity code, does not align with the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The single recent opportunity posted under this code is Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department's RFP 2026-327 for offender specimen collection and drug testing services — a scope encompassing laboratory testing infrastructure, staffing, and clinical operations entirely unrelated to hymecromone, a pharmaceutical compound. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source database or a narrow, specialized pharmaceutical procurement that does not reflect typical UNSPSC usage patterns for this code at the state and local level.

The Collin County RFP, due July 23, 2026 with an anticipated award date of August 10, 2026, requests proposals to operate two collection sites in Plano and McKinney with immunoassay screening, LC/MS/MS or GC/MS confirmation, oral fluid and hair testing options, and an Interactive Voice Response system supporting approximately 25,031 annual tests across five-panel and six-panel screens. The contract is valued at $600,000 with a two-year initial term and three optional one-year renewals, funded through the Texas Department of Criminal Justice-Community Justice Assistance Division. Evaluation weighs vendor understanding (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), client references (15 points), cost (30 points), and optional demonstrations and interviews (up to 30 points). Beyond this single opportunity, the code shows no recent state and local procurement activity; without additional representative solicitations, pursuit under this code is not advised based on available market signals.
