UNSPSC 51204214: Rinderpest 'tissupeste' vaccine

An inactivated vaccine - a tissue culture rinderpest vaccine, or TCRV - that induced lifelong immunity without major side effects or the risk of further transmission

UNSPSC 51204214 Rinderpest vaccine, a Commodity code, nominally covers animal disease vaccines, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal relevant solicitation. The single recent opportunity posted under this code is a sole-source notice from the Mississippi State Department of Health for Yellow Fever Vaccine — a human vaccine unrelated to rinderpest or animal health. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the state procurement system or that the code is being applied inconsistently to vaccine procurements more broadly. State and local governments appear to use this code infrequently or with limited precision for vaccine acquisitions.

The Mississippi solicitation (Solicitation Number 3150006922, posted July 13, 2026, with objections due August 3, 2026) targets a sole-source purchase from Sanofi Pasteur, Inc., with no quantity, term, or estimated value disclosed. The notice structure — a proposed sole-source designation open to objections rather than a competitive RFP or IFB — indicates that if substantiated objections are filed, the state will either conduct an advertised competitive process or appeal to the Public Procurement Review Board. No other recent state or local opportunities appear under this code in the provided data, making Mississippi the only visible buyer and the vaccine category the sole activity signal. The code shows insufficient recent activity to characterize a meaningful issuing-body mix, geographic concentration, or procurement pattern.
