UNSPSC 51461546 Sarracenia purpurea injection is a Commodity code that encompasses injectable pharmaceutical products manufactured to current Good Manufacturing Practices standards and distributed through state and local government healthcare facilities. Recent state and local solicitation activity under this code involves cooperative purchasing vehicles establishing multi-source pharmaceutical supply agreements. The Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP), administered by the Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement, uses this taxonomy to classify generic pharmaceuticals and over-the-counter products procured across participating state and local government facilities including Oregon. Vendors responding to opportunities in this space must comply with FDA requirements, maintain cGMP and Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) certification, hold comprehensive insurance coverage (commercial general liability of $5,000,000 per occurrence minimum), and supply products through authorized wholesaler networks including AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation (Cencora), Cardinal Health, and Morris & Dickson Co., LLC. All products must possess expiration dates of at least one year from manufacture with a minimum six-month shelf life.

MMCAP's January 2026 RFP for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products, due March 26, 2026, represents the primary recent activity under this code. The procurement establishes multiple contracts with contract terms of two years for new vendors and optional extensions at MMCAP's discretion. Evaluation weighted pricing competitiveness at 75 percent, with the remainder distributed across fixed pricing, administrative fee compliance, EDI capability, and pricing-format flexibility (flat price, net price at various intervals, or WAC-minus structures). Vendors must maintain contractual relationships with at least two of the three authorized wholesalers with chargeback systems in place, and all awarded manufacturers will be provided to wholesalers by May 15, 2026, with resulting agreements effective July 1, 2026. The solicitation carries performance penalties ranging from $200 to $1,500 per violation and requires vendors to pay a 3 percent administrative fee on all contract purchases.
