UNSPSC 51241542 Phenylephrine/scopolamine is a Commodity code for a specific pharmaceutical combination product that state and local governments acquire primarily through cooperative purchasing agreements serving healthcare facilities and emergency services. State and local health departments, county clinics, municipal hospitals, and special-purpose healthcare districts source this injectable medication—used for vasopressor support and anticholinergic effects in acute care settings—alongside broader pharmaceutical contracts that bundle generic drugs and over-the-counter products. The Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP), administered by the Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement, is the primary vehicle currently active for procurement under this code, consolidating demand across participating state and local member agencies in Minnesota and Oregon to negotiate volume pricing and supply terms with manufacturers through established wholesaler channels.

The geographic footprint for this code extends across Minnesota and Oregon through the MMCAP cooperative agreement. MMCAP issued a Request for Proposal on January 20, 2026 (S1070000015802) to establish multiple contracts for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products, with proposals due March 26, 2026. The solicitation requires vendors to supply products through three authorized wholesalers—AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation (Cencora), Cardinal Health 110 and 112, and Morris & Dickson Co., LLC—and mandates certification under current Good Manufacturing Practices and the Drug Supply Chain Security Act, with awarded vendors effective July 1, 2026. Evaluation emphasizes price competitiveness (75 percent), fixed pricing stability (10 percent), EDI capability (5 percent), administrative fee compliance (5 percent), and data format adherence (5 percent). Vendors must carry commercial general liability insurance of $5,000,000 per occurrence and network security liability of $2,000,000, maintain contractual relationships with at least two of the three wholesalers, and accept a 3 percent administrative fee structure with performance penalties of $200 to $1,500 per violation.
