UNSPSC 51173208 Bisacodyl/electrolytes/peg-3350 is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to current state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department's RFP 2026-327 for offender specimen collection and drug testing services—involves laboratory testing infrastructure, staffing, and result reporting with no apparent connection to the pharmaceutical products named in the code. The scope encompasses immunoassay screening, LC/MS/MS or GC/MS confirmation, oral fluid and hair testing methodologies, and electronic result reporting, which do not align with bowel-preparation or electrolyte-replacement pharmaceuticals.

Collin County issued RFP 2026-327 on September 25, 2026, with proposals due July 23, 2026 (an apparent date inconsistency in the source), for approximately 25,031 annual tests across five-panel and six-panel drug screens plus ancillary testing at an estimated contract value of $600,000 over two years with three optional one-year renewal periods. The county sought a single responsible contractor or multiple vendors capable of staffing two collection sites in Plano and McKinney during standard business hours plus five Saturdays annually, maintaining SAMHSA, Texas DPS, or CAP lab certification, and providing pricing on a per-test basis with three service models. This procurement suggests the code may be mislabeled in the county's system, as the actual work involves criminal justice testing services rather than pharmaceutical supply. Firms pursuing opportunities under this code should verify alignment with pharmaceutical distribution or medical supply channels before investing in pursuit strategy.
