About UNSPSC 51472901

UNSPSC 51472901 Iodine, a Commodity code, covers specialized chemical compounds and disinfectants used in state and local operations, though the recent activity under this code reflects broader janitorial and operational supply procurement rather than iodine-specific purchasing. State and local governments soliciting under this code include county governments and fire rescue departments, which source consumable supplies on an as-needed basis for high-utilization facilities operating around the clock. The products procured must meet strict quality standards — new, unused, and in original packaging — and vendors must be authorized distributors capable of managing backorder, recall, and chain-of-custody documentation. Delivery requirements are typically expedited, with standard turnaround within 10 days and emergency delivery capability within five business days.

Hillsborough County, Florida represents the primary recent activity under this code, issuing an ITB in July 2026 for janitorial and operational supplies to support the Hillsborough County Fire Rescue Department across 47 fire stations. The ITB-26-00319, due July 24, 2026, carried an estimated contract value of $765,679.84 for a one-year term with deliveries to the Public Safety Operations Complex in Tampa. The County reserved the right to award by line item, group, or overall total net bid price and did not guarantee minimum purchase quantities. Bidders were required to submit a Drug-Free Workplace Certification Form under Florida Statute 287.087 and could participate in the Hillsborough County Governmental Purchasing Council cooperative vehicle under the same contract terms.
