UNSPSC 51433804 Levosimendan is a Commodity code for an intravenous cardiac medication used in emergency and critical care settings. State and local procurement activity under this code centers on emergency medical services supply contracts, particularly for fire rescue departments and emergency medical personnel. The City of Tampa's Purchasing Department solicited Advanced Life Support Medications for Tampa Fire Rescue in a sealed-bid procurement (IFB No. 26P00188), though the specific line items requested—Labetalol, Epinephrine, Adenosine, and Diltiazem—represent the broader emergency medication family rather than levosimendan alone. This pattern suggests the code may capture a wider range of advanced life support injectables procured under unified medication supply contracts. Issuing bodies for this category include municipal fire and rescue departments, which coordinate through city purchasing offices to standardize medication inventories and ensure rapid resupply compliance. The procurement includes typical EMS supply requirements: minimum nine-month shelf life from acceptance, ten-day delivery terms, defect warranties, and vendor responsibility for expired-material pickup and replacement.

Tampa represents the documented geographic center of recent activity under this code. The City of Tampa IFB (posted April 24, 2026, response due April 8, 2026) carried an estimated contract value of $40,000 with a one-year base term and two one-year renewal options, plus unilateral three 30-day extension rights. The procurement applied a Small Local Business Enterprise (SLBE) sheltered market designation with a 5 percent bid discount capped at $10,000 and required vendors to supply Safety Data Sheets compliant with OSHA Hazard Communication Standards and accessibility documentation meeting WCAG 2.2 Level AA and Section 508 standards. Award was to be made to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder within 120 days of bid opening. No additional state or local opportunities under this code are documented in the available record.
