NIGP 41068: Recycled Health Care and Hospital Furniture

NIGP 41068, Recycled Health Care And Hospital Furniture, is an Item code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in current state and local procurement. The two recent opportunities posted under this code—one from the Washington State Department of Transportation for occupational medical surveillance services and another from Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, for law enforcement equipment—fall outside the scope of recycled furniture procurement and suggest the NIGP taxonomy mapping may not align with current issuing practice or may indicate misclassification in the source data. Based on the opportunities available, the code does not support a reliable characterization of what state and local governments are actually purchasing as recycled health care and hospital furniture at this time.

No substantive state and local procurement activity under NIGP 41068 for recycled health care and hospital furniture is documented in the source material.
