UNSPSC 41111800: Non destructive examination equipment

UNSPSC 41111800 Non destructive examination equipment is a Class code under which state and local governments procure diagnostic and monitoring equipment, primarily medical and veterinary imaging systems deployed for occupational health, clinical care, and research purposes. Recent solicitations show a focus on ultrasound systems across multiple healthcare delivery models — occupational medical surveillance equipment for state transportation ferries, veterinary imaging systems for university animal health facilities, and point-of-care ultrasound platforms for federally qualified health centers. The issuing bodies span state transportation departments, higher-education institutions, and nonprofit healthcare providers, reflecting a diverse buyer base driven by occupational safety, teaching, and direct patient care missions rather than a single dominant sector.

Activity appears concentrated in the Pacific Northwest and Texas, with recent opportunities from Washington State Department of Transportation, University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Central Texas Community Health Centers. The Washington State Ferries RFP (RFP20260825) seeks occupational medical surveillance services with examinations and record management across 14 ferry locations, due October 9, 2026, cost-weighted at 40 percent and non-cost capability factors at 60 percent, with contract award anticipated by November 30, 2026. University of Wisconsin-Madison issued a competitive bid for veterinary ultrasound units (2027-UWMSN-01412-RFB) in July 2026. CommUnityCare in Austin issued an RFP (RFP202605001) requesting a mixed fleet of cart-based and handheld point-of-care ultrasound equipment with Epic EHR integration, comprehensive warranty and maintenance, and training, evaluated on compliance (20 points), total cost of ownership (15 points), ease of use (15 points), portability and battery life (15 points), Epic and PACS compatibility (15 points), vendor healthcare reputation (10 points), and HIPAA compliance (10 points), with submission deadline June 11, 2026 and negotiations anticipated with finalist candidates.
