About UNSPSC 51281606

UNSPSC 51281606 Betamicin, a Commodity code, shows limited recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The two most recent opportunities tagged under this code diverge significantly from betamicin procurement: the Illinois Department of Public Health awarded a pharmaceutical warehouse contract through MMCAP Infuse to Chartwell Rx LLC for Doxycycline Hyclate and Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride tablets (completed award, not an open solicitation), and Seminole County, Florida released an IFB for Naloxone and Safe Drug Deactivation Systems. Neither opportunity involves betamicin or closely related aminoglycoside antibiotics. State and local health departments and counties appear to be the primary issuing bodies when pharmaceutical procurement does occur under this code, typically through cooperative purchasing vehicles such as MMCAP Infuse and competitive sealed bidding.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Illinois and Florida, though the sample is too limited to characterize broader regional concentration. The Illinois Department of Public Health's completed award to Chartwell Rx LLC valued $2,999,999.11 over a 12-month initial term with two renewal options; the Seminole County IFB (posted June 30, 2026, response deadline July 26, 2026) sought 1,900 units of Naloxone and 800 Safe Drug Deactivation Systems annually with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford, Florida. Neither recent opportunity represents active solicitation for betamicin specifically, suggesting limited current demand under this code at the state and local level. Firms pursuing pharmaceutical supply contracts in state and local markets may find greater opportunity in broader antimicrobial or public health emergency-response categories.
