About UNSPSC 51471502

UNSPSC 51471502 Povidone is a Commodity code capturing antiseptic and disinfectant chemical products in state and local procurement, though recent activity shows the code tagged to broader janitorial and operational supply categories that may include povidone-based products alongside other consumables. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners' July 2026 ITB for fire-rescue consumables — valued at $765,679.84 for one year — illustrates the practical scope: county governments source these products on an as-needed basis to support continuous operations across multiple facilities. The solicitation requires new, unused inventory in original packaging from authorized distributors, with standard delivery within ten days and emergency delivery within five business days, coordinated to a central operations complex during business hours. Bidders must provide backorder and chain-of-custody documentation, and pricing is quoted free-on-board destination with all shipping included.

County purchasing offices and fire-rescue departments represent the primary issuing bodies under this code, with Hillsborough County (Florida) showing recent activity. The geographic footprint is narrow based on available records, with Florida as the identifiable active jurisdiction in the current dataset. The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners ITB 26-00319, due July 24, 2026, is the representative recent opportunity; the contract may be shared with members of the Hillsborough County Governmental Purchasing Council under identical terms, potentially widening the cooperative purchasing reach. No minimum purchase quantities are guaranteed, and the County reserves award discretion by line item, group, section, or overall net bid price. Drug-Free Workplace Certification and a Substitute W-9 Form are mandatory submissions.
