UNSPSC 53131610: Eye care supplies

UNSPSC 53131610 Eye care supplies is a Commodity code that in recent state and local activity encompasses generic pharmaceuticals and over-the-counter products distributed through authorized wholesalers to government health and human services facilities. The Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP), administered by the Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement, solicits these supplies on behalf of multiple participating state and local government entities across jurisdictions including Oregon. Vendors must supply products through three authorized wholesalers—AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation (Cencora), Cardinal Health 110 and 112, and Morris & Dickson Co., LLC—and meet rigorous compliance requirements including current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) certification, Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) compliance, and FDA standards. Contracts require comprehensive insurance coverage (commercial general liability of $5,000,000 per occurrence, network security and privacy liability of $2,000,000, and professional liability of $2,000,000) and maintain contractual relationships with at least two of the three authorized wholesalers with chargeback systems in place. Pricing evaluation weights price competitiveness most heavily at 75 percent, with lesser weighting for fixed pricing (10 percent), compliance with administrative data formats (5 percent), EDI capability (5 percent), and agreement to a 3 percent administrative fee (5 percent).

MMCAP's RFP S1070000015802 for Generic Multi Source Pharmaceuticals and OTC Products, posted January 20, 2026, with proposals due March 26, 2026, represents the primary recent activity under this code.

No geographic concentration beyond Minnesota and Oregon is evident in the available opportunity record, and no additional recent state or local opportunities under this code are documented in the source materials.
