UNSPSC 51172300: Antidotes and emetics

This classification denotes agents counteracting or neutralizing the action of poisons.

UNSPSC 51172300 Antidotes and emetics is a Class code that in recent state and local procurement activity does not reflect the scope suggested by its nominal name. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department's RFP 2026-327 for offender specimen collection and drug testing services—involves no antidotes or emetics. The solicitation requests staffing of collection sites in Plano and McKinney, operation of an Interactive Voice Response system for randomized testing notifications, immunoassay screening with confirmatory testing via LC/MS/MS or GC/MS, electronic result reporting, and optional oral fluid and hair testing methodologies. The work is transactional rather than pharmaceutical in nature. Collin County is the sole recent issuing body activity visible under this code.

The code shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity. Collin County's RFP 2026-327, posted September 25, 2026 with response due July 23, 2026, represents the only recent opportunity tagged to this code. The estimated contract value is $600,000 over an initial two-year term with three optional one-year renewals. The county will award to one or more responsible contractors based on vendor understanding (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), client references (15 points), cost (30 points), and optional Phase 2 demonstrations and interviews (up to 30 points). The successful vendor must maintain lab certification from SAMHSA, TX DPS, or CAP. Pricing is per-test across three service models: screening only, confirmation after screening, and screening with automatic confirmation of positives. The mismatch between the code's pharmaceutical intent and the actual scope of work solicited suggests that either this code is miscoded in the Collin County taxonomy or the code sees little relevant state and local activity under its true definition.
