About UNSPSC 51471808

UNSPSC 51471808 Proflavine hemisulfate or hemisulphate is a Commodity code for a specific antimicrobial and antiseptic chemical compound, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little relevance to the nominal scope. The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued an ITB for janitorial and operational supplies for fire-rescue operations — a broad consumables procurement that does not target proflavine hemisulfate specifically — while the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP) issued an RFP for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and over-the-counter products distributed across state and local facilities, which also does not isolate this chemical as a line item or explicitly required product. Neither solicitation demonstrates active, targeted procurement of proflavine hemisulfate by state and local agencies.

The mismatch between the code's chemical specificity and the breadth of the opportunities suggests that either the code was applied to general pharmaceutical or chemical purchasing vehicles, or that state and local agencies do not currently solicit proflavine hemisulfate as a standalone item in publicly posted notices. The Hillsborough County opportunity (ITB 26-00319, due July 24, 2026, estimated value $765,679.84) targets consumable supplies for 47 fire-rescue stations in Tampa, Florida, while the MMCAP procurement (RFP S1070000015802, due March 26, 2026) spans multiple state and local facilities across Minnesota and Oregon through an established cooperative purchasing vehicle. The code shows minimal decision-relevant recent activity for firms seeking to pursue this specific commodity at state and local level.
