UNSPSC 51191909: Thiamine

This classification denotes a b vitamin with the molecular formula C12H17N4OS.Cl, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier X66NSO3N35, chemically known as 67-03-8 (chloride, hcl) but generally known as thiamine, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 1130. European Medicines Agency schedules Thiamine in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB10969MIG. The term THIAMINE is an International Non-Proprietary Name or INN (see WHO INN reference publication, Volume 32, No 10 1978, List 18).

UNSPSC 51191909 Thiamine, a Commodity code, represents pharmaceutical and chemical supply to state and local health, corrections, and public-works agencies. Recent solicitations show this code capturing purchases of vitamins, parenteral nutrition solutions, and related pharmaceutical inputs rather than thiamine specifically — state and local procurement offices tag diverse pharmaceutical commodities under broad vitamin and nutrition codes. The issuing bodies span state departments of corrections and health, county water and wastewater authorities, and municipal utilities, each buying to meet regulatory compliance, inmate healthcare, and water treatment requirements. Work ranges from specialized parenteral nutrition formulations delivered on urgent timelines to routine chemical supply contracts for municipal treatment facilities.

The Washington State Department of Corrections, Broward County Florida, and the City of Meriden Connecticut represent the recent geographic spread. The DOC RFQ for parenteral products, services, and equipment (RFQQK13020, due October 7, 2026) targets eight correctional facilities across Washington state and seeks TPN, PPN, IV solutions, and controlled substances with 24-hour delivery windows; DOC will select up to three bidders per region and encourages small-business, minority-owned, women-owned, and veteran-owned participation under state aspirational goals including a 5% diverse-business target. Broward County's RFI on DeZurik/APCO valve services (BLD6232026F23, due September 29, 2026) confirms capability to supply and maintain valve components for wastewater treatment, though this solicitation diverges from the thiamine code's pharmaceutical scope and suggests potential miscoding. The City of Meriden's IFB for sodium bisulfite chemical supply (B027-15, due July 29, 2026) serves municipal water pollution control operations. Recent activity clusters in the Pacific Northwest and Southeast; the code sees use across corrections healthcare, water authority operations, and municipal chemical procurement.
