UNSPSC 41111804: Ultrasonic examination equipment

UNSPSC 41111804 Ultrasonic examination equipment is a Commodity code under which state and local health agencies and healthcare systems procure ultrasound diagnostic imaging systems, including cart-based ultrasound machines with advanced imaging modes, handheld point-of-care devices, and associated examination tables for clinical outpatient settings. The scope of recent solicitations ranges from single ultrasound examination tables for hospital outpatient buildings to comprehensive fleet deployments of mixed cart-based and handheld systems with full-service ancillary packages including maintenance contracts, training, Epic EHR integration, and cybersecurity compliance. Health systems and state healthcare agencies issue the vast majority of RFPs and RFBs under this code, with occasional academic medical institutions participating. Recent opportunities show healthcare providers emphasizing total cost of ownership, regulatory compliance, DICOM connectivity, and integration with existing clinical information systems as key evaluation criteria.

Recent activity clusters in California and Texas. A California state healthcare agency issued RFB-IS-27200209 on September 24, 2026, for a single ultrasound examination table (HHOPT-50107) with a CBE preference requirement and an October 13, 2026 response deadline. CommUnityCare, a Travis County, Texas nonprofit FQHC serving 344,000 annual patient visits, posted RFP 2026-05-001 on June 11, 2026, for a mixed fleet of three cart-based ultrasound systems (TE7 Max equivalent) and three handheld point-of-care devices with comprehensive warranty, maintenance, training, and Epic integration, with proposals due June 11, 2026 and written questions due May 19, 2026. Seminole County, Florida's RFP-604608-23/LNF, posted October 6, 2026, targets generator services rather than ultrasonic equipment and appears mistagged under this code; it does not reflect relevant activity in the ultrasonic examination equipment category. The CommUnityCare solicitation demonstrates the scale and sophistication of current procurement — vendors must carry $1,000,000 per occurrence and $5,000,000 aggregate general liability insurance, provide corporate healthcare references within two years, meet HIPAA and cybersecurity standards including SBOM documentation, and submit detailed total-cost-of-ownership pricing covering equipment lifecycle, training, and integration services.
