UNSPSC 51282400: Extended-spectrum penicillins

This classification denotes Penicillin-derived antibiotics with wide antibacterial spectrum, hence the designation Extended-Spectrum Penicillins.

UNSPSC 51282400 Extended-spectrum penicillins is a Class code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it by state and local procurement offices. Recent opportunities tagged with this code span naloxone and drug deactivation systems, medical and first-aid supplies for emergency response, generic pharmaceuticals and over-the-counter products through cooperative purchasing, and pharmacy benefit management program design — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of extended-spectrum penicillin antibiotics. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement databases or a data quality issue that limits the code's utility as a reliable indicator of actual buying activity.

The most recent opportunities appear across Texas, Florida, and Minnesota, with the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing an RFI (posted April 3, 2026) on direct-to-manufacturer pharmacy programs; Seminole County, Florida releasing an IFB (posted June 30, 2026, due July 26, 2023) for naloxone and drug deactivation systems; the City of Tampa issuing an IFB (posted March 25, 2026, due March 13, 2026) for medical and first-aid supplies with an estimated contract value of $700,000 and sheltered-market set-asides for certified Small Local Business Enterprises; and the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP) posting an RFP (posted January 20, 2026, due March 26, 2026) for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products distributed across participating state and local facilities. Without relevant recent activity in extended-spectrum penicillins, the code shows little opportunity for targeted pursuit in its stated category.
