UNSPSC 42121504: Veterinary stereotaxic equipment

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that can localize a part of the brain in an animal using coordinates of brain structures. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 842119.

UNSPSC 42121504 Veterinary stereotaxic equipment, a Commodity code, does not align with the actual scope of state and local procurement activity posted under this designation. Recent opportunities solicited under the code cover general veterinary supplies, pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, and services for animal control and sheltering operations, not stereotaxic surgical equipment. Orange County, Florida issued RFP Y26-176 in October 2026 seeking authorized distributors carrying diagnostic equipment, surgical instruments, endotracheal tubes, syringes, needles, gauze, sutures, and operational supplies for its Animal Services Division; Pinellas County Government issued ITB 26-0718 in September 2026 for vaccines, medications, anesthetic drugs, euthanasia solutions, and hospital supplies for animal impound operations with an estimated annual budget of $25,000; and San Mateo County issued IFB 2026-IFB-00592 and 2026-IFB-00553 for general veterinary pharmaceuticals and medical supplies including antibiotics, gauze, bandages, and vaccines on an as-needed basis. Issuing bodies are county-level animal services and domestic animal control departments across multiple jurisdictions, typically seeking multi-year supply agreements with as-needed ordering and rapid delivery cycles.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and California. Orange County and Pinellas County in Florida both posted RFP and ITB opportunities in September and October 2026; San Mateo County in California issued two companion IFBs in June and July 2026. Collier County, Florida issued a single-source notice in August 2026 for a MinXray portable X-ray radiography system and cloud support services, which aligns more closely with capital equipment but remains an outlier. Pinal County, Arizona issued RFP 264131 in May 2026 for ongoing veterinary services rather than supplies. The code's nominal scope—stereotaxic surgical equipment for animal research or neurological procedures—does not match the active procurement pipeline, which centers on routine animal shelter supply chains, pharmaceutical procurement, and general veterinary equipment.
