UNSPSC 51473104 Nitrofural or nitrofurazone, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal pharmaceutical scope. The single relevant recent opportunity involves a Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP) RFP for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and over-the-counter products distributed across participating state and local government facilities in Minnesota and Oregon, issued by the Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement with a response date of March 26, 2026. A second recently posted opportunity—Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners' ITB for janitorial and operational supplies due July 24, 2026, estimated at $765,679.84—carries this UNSPSC code but does not align with nitrofurazone's actual use case and appears to reflect a tagging mismatch in the county's procurement system.

The MMCAP solicitation represents the primary decision-relevant activity under this code, targeting manufacturers capable of supplying identified pharmaceutical products with specific National Drug Codes through authorized wholesalers AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation (Cencora), Cardinal Health 110 and 112, and Morris & Dickson Co., LLC. Vendors must comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices and the Drug Supply Chain Security Act, maintain contractual relationships with at least two of the three wholesalers with chargeback systems in place, and carry insurance including $5,000,000 commercial general liability per occurrence. The contract term runs two years for new vendors with optional MMCAP extensions, or through June 30, 2028 for incumbent amendments. Pricing is weighted at 75 percent in the evaluation, with compliance and administrative requirements comprising the remainder. No specific set-aside designations were identified in the available documentation. Beyond the Minnesota-Oregon cooperative, the code shows no other recent state or local solicitation activity.
