UNSPSC 51172816 Camphor/menthol/phenol is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure over-the-counter and pharmaceutical products containing these active ingredients as part of broader multi-source generic pharmaceutical and OTC product contracts. The solicitations under this code reflect state and local health and human services procurement focused on cost-effective sourcing of common therapeutic agents for use across participating facilities. Issuing bodies include state procurement offices and cooperative purchasing alliances that aggregate demand across multiple states and localities — notably the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP), administered by the Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement, which coordinates purchasing across state and local government facilities in Minnesota, Oregon, and other participating jurisdictions.

The Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance issued a Request for Proposal on January 20, 2026 for Generic Multi Source Pharmaceuticals and Over the Counter Products (Solicitation S1070000015802), with proposals due March 26, 2026. This procurement establishes multiple contracts for manufacturers to supply products meeting specific National Drug Codes, requiring vendors to distribute through three authorized wholesalers (AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation/Cencora, Cardinal Health 110 and 112, and Morris & Dickson Co., LLC) and comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, the Drug Supply Chain Security Act, and FDA requirements. Awarded vendors must maintain $5 million commercial general liability insurance, $2 million network security and privacy liability coverage, and $2 million professional liability coverage. The contract term runs two years for new responders with optional extensions, while incumbent vendors' amendments extend through June 30, 2028, with evaluations weighted heavily toward price competitiveness (75 percent) and supplemented by fixed pricing compliance (10 percent), administrative fee format requirements (5 percent), EDI capability (5 percent), and agreement to a 3 percent administrative fee (5 percent).
