UNSPSC 51373474 Hydrocodone/phenylpropanolamine is a Commodity code that in practice captures procurement of parenteral products, controlled substances, and related medical supplies by state and local correctional and health agencies. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily state departments of corrections and county public health authorities seeking to stock intravenous solutions, parenteral nutrition preparations, naloxone, and controlled pharmaceuticals for incarcerated populations and community health response. The Washington State Department of Corrections and Seminole County, Florida have both posted solicitations under or aligned with this code within the past four months. Scope includes TPN and PPN solutions, IV products, naloxone units, and drug deactivation systems, with delivery and turnaround requirements that vary by product — parenteral nutrition bags must arrive within 24 hours of order, while other IV products require delivery within 8 hours of the initial 24-hour supply order. Contractors must demonstrate documented experience preparing and delivering IV solutions, monitoring patient lab results, and adjusting formulations; they must also carry substantial professional liability, general liability, and cyber liability coverage naming the state as additional insured.

Recent activity centers in the Pacific Northwest and Southeast. The Washington State Department of Corrections issued RFQ RFQQK13020 on September 8, 2026, with a due date of October 7, 2026, seeking qualified vendors to supply parenteral products across eight facilities in three regions (West, Central, and East), with multiple award potential (up to three bidders per region) and contract performance running from November 26, 2026 through June 30, 2030 with fixed pricing for the initial two-year term. Seminole County, Florida posted an IFB on June 30, 2026, seeking 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building; the original IFB due date was July 26, 2023, though the posting date of June 30, 2026 suggests potential reposting or amendment. Washington State's procurement emphasizes state and federal set-aside preferences (SBE, MBE, WBE, VBE) with an aspirational 5% small and diverse business goal and a mandatory Subcontractor Inclusion Plan for qualified minority-owned and women-owned businesses where economically prudent.
