UNSPSC 51172900: Combination genito-urinary agents

This classification denotes combination drugs and preparations that treat diseases and disorders of the organs involved in reproduction and the formation and release of urine, which include the genitals, hence the term GENITO-URINARY AGENTS. Typical combination genito-urinary agent constituents are boric, glycerin, inositol, menthol, methyl salicylate, octoxynol 9, oxyquinoline, sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium citrate, and tamsulosin.

UNSPSC 51172900 Combination genito-urinary agents is a Class code that in recent state and local practice encompasses a broader scope than the nominal category title suggests — procurement records show water-treatment chemicals, parenteral pharmaceutical products and services, and industrial valve components for wastewater and water-pollution control. State and local buyers under this code span water and wastewater utilities, corrections departments managing inmate healthcare, and county public-works procurement offices. The work being solicited ranges from chemical supply contracts for municipal water-pollution control facilities to specialized medical-grade parenteral nutrition and intravenous solutions with tight delivery windows and cold-chain requirements, as well as engineered industrial valves and repair services for wastewater treatment processes. Issuers include county purchasing offices (Broward County, Florida), state corrections agencies (Washington State Department of Corrections), and municipal utilities (City of Meriden, Connecticut).

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Washington, with secondary activity in Connecticut. The Washington State Department of Corrections issued an RFQ on September 8, 2026 for parenteral products, services, and equipment to supply eight correctional facilities across three regions (West, Central, and East), with responses due October 7, 2026 and a pre-bid conference scheduled for September 23, 2026; DOC anticipates selecting up to three bidders per region for the contract term running November 26, 2026 through June 30, 2030. Broward County, Florida posted a Request for Information on September 18, 2026 regarding DeZurik/APCO valves, parts, and repair services for wastewater treatment compliance, due September 29, 2026, to evaluate whether alternatives to the current sole-source provider Controls Specialties, Inc. are available. The City of Meriden, Connecticut issued an IFB for sodium bisulfite chemical supply to its Water Pollution Control Facility, due July 29, 2026. Set-aside participation is active; Washington DOC explicitly encourages small business (25%), minority-owned (10%), women-owned (6%), and veteran-owned (5%) participation with a subcontractor inclusion plan requirement.
