NIGP 26031: Electrosurgery Units, Dental

NIGP 26031 Electrosurgery Units, Dental is an Item code that encompasses surgical extraction and removal systems for orthopedic and dental applications, as demonstrated in recent state and local procurement activity. State and local governments solicit under this code for specialized surgical equipment including orthopedic hardware removal and extraction systems, intraoral digital imaging scanners, and related surgical instrumentation. Issuing bodies include county hospital systems, state university systems (including community colleges), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-jurisdictional public entities. San Mateo Medical Center, a county-operated acute-care hospital system in California, and Valencia College's School of Allied Health in Florida represent the types of health care and educational institutions buying under this code.

Recent activity concentrates in California and Florida, with expanding reach through cooperative purchasing frameworks. San Mateo Medical Center issued an RFP (solicitation 666002526252, response due July 1, 2026) for orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services on an as-needed basis, requiring vendors to demonstrate five years of experience, ISO 13485:2016 certification, and capability to support acute-care hospital surgical procedures across Northern California; the three-year contract carries a local-business preference of 5 to 10 percent under San Mateo County Ordinance. Valencia College's School of Allied Health conducted a sole-source procurement (solicitation SS202620, originally posted November 18, 2025, due November 27, 2025) for four iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc, valued at $143,196.00, serving dental hygiene clinical and educational applications. Sourcewell's cooperative RFP #061626 (response due June 16, 2026) for law enforcement equipment through multiple Washington counties and other jurisdictions signals broader adoption of cooperative purchasing frameworks for specialized equipment across diverse public-sector buyer classes.
