UNSPSC 42141813 Electroconvulsive devices is a Commodity code. Recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no alignment between the nominal scope and actual solicitation content. The recent opportunities posted do not include electroconvulsive devices or related psychiatric medical equipment; instead, they span durable medical equipment broadly (respiratory supplies, CPAP devices, orthotics, prosthetics, wheelchairs, communication aids), athletic training and strength-conditioning services, law enforcement equipment, special education supplies, tablet devices, and behavioral coaching services. The code shows little relevant recent activity for its stated commodity scope.

The eight posted opportunities originate from a diverse issuing-body mix including state health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, California Department of Health Services), county governments (Pinal County, Arizona; Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties in Washington), cities (City of Tucson, Arizona), independent school districts (Harlingen CISD, Klein ISD, Donna ISD, Texas), and cooperative purchasing entities (Sourcewell). Geographic spread spans Texas, California, Arizona, Washington, and multiple states through the Sourcewell cooperative procurement framework. The Texas HHSC Master Contracts for DME (RFP HHS0017173, due June 2, 2026) represents the most substantial recent opportunity under the code block, covering eleven DME categories across eleven Texas service regions with a contract not to exceed $5 million over the award period; the procurement carries a 21.1 percent HUB utilization set-aside. Secondary opportunities include the Sourcewell Law Enforcement Equipment RFP (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026) and the City of Tucson athletic training services RFP (RFP 260163, due June 9, 2026), neither of which directly address electroconvulsive or psychiatric medical devices. Business development professionals should verify whether this code assignment reflects a data-entry error or a broader procurement classification issue before allocating pursuit resources.
