UNSPSC 42121701: Veterinary surgical tables

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that act as a table in surgical procedures in animals. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 940290.

UNSPSC 42121701 Veterinary surgical tables (Commodity) covers specialized equipment and support services for veterinary surgical facilities, but recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code show a mismatch between the nominal code scope and actual purchasing activity. The source includes five recent solicitations: three are unrelated to veterinary surgical tables (laser equipment and surgical power systems for a hospital operating room, and preventive maintenance for animal shelter medical equipment), one seeks a mobile veterinary surgical unit trailer with full integration and support, and one involves an equine transport table for a university. Of these, only the University of Georgia's mobile surgical trailer procurement and the University of Wisconsin equine transport table solicitation involve veterinary surgical equipment or platforms; the others fall outside the code's stated scope.

Recent activity appears across three states. The University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine issued an RFP (number 51800ERFP0000017672026, due June 4, 2026) for a turnkey mobile veterinary surgical unit trailer for small animal procedures, emphasizing a proven stock or standard platform with design refinement rather than full custom development, and including equipment integration, delivery, graphics installation, training, and warranty support. The University of Wisconsin-Madison posted an RFB (number 2026-UWMSN-01274-RFB, due March 5, 2026) for an equine transport table. Beyond these two veterinary-specific opportunities, the code shows no recent relevant state or local procurement activity. Business development professionals should note that actual veterinary surgical equipment procurement under this code appears sparse and concentrated in higher-education customers; the broader tagged activity reflects taxonomy misapplication in state and local procurement systems.
