UNSPSC 41170000: Diagnostic and microbiological devices

In this classification these entries connote devices used in diagnostic and microbiological based laboratory procedures.

UNSPSC 41170000 Diagnostic and microbiological devices (Family) encompasses mobile diagnostic imaging services and related technical support that state and local governments procure for correctional facilities, healthcare systems, and other public institutions. The scope includes self-contained diagnostic equipment—mobile MRI and CT units—along with the licensed technologists, radiologists, quality assurance protocols, and reporting infrastructure required to deliver imaging services. Equipment must meet clinical certification standards and operational readiness thresholds; personnel must hold relevant medical licensure and credentialing (ARRT certification, Board-Certified Radiologist status) and pass security clearances and background checks where required by the hosting facility. Turnaround commitments—24 to 48 hours for final reports, four hours for STAT findings, immediate notification for critical results—are embedded in the service requirements. Insurance requirements (commercial general liability and professional liability) are standard.

The Utah Department of Health and Human Services posted solicitation DHHS26117 on July 9, 2026 for mobile MRI and CT diagnostic imaging services at Utah State Correctional Facility in Salt Lake County, with proposals due July 31, 2026. The RFP uses a 70/30 technical-to-cost evaluation split, allocates significant weight to experience in the Wasatch Front region and compliance with tight scheduling turnaround, and requires unit pricing against 44 CPT-coded procedure line items. The five-year contract term and detailed technical specifications—minimum 1.5T MRI, 64-slice CT, daily calibration and QC documentation, HIPAA-compliant electronic reporting, mandatory orientation and bloodborne pathogen training—reflect the regulatory and security constraints imposed by correctional facility operations. Submission is via Bonfire and includes conflict-of-interest disclosure, W-9 form (unless currently under DHHS contract), technical response, cost proposal, and proof of licensure and certifications.
