About UNSPSC 42142131

UNSPSC 42142131 Physical therapy moist heat apparatus is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent activity in state and local procurement aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not reflect purchases of physical therapy moist heat equipment. Instead, the identified solicitations cover outpatient building furniture (State of California), computerized dynamic posturography and motion rehabilitation simulator systems with virtual reality integration (Lamar University, Texas), law enforcement equipment (Sourcewell cooperative purchasing on behalf of multiple jurisdictions), and athletic strength and conditioning supplies and equipment (Harlingen Consolidated Independent School District, Texas). Only the Lamar University motion rehabilitation simulator solicitation relates tangentially to therapeutic or rehabilitation equipment, but it specifies advanced computerized posturography systems with virtual reality rather than moist heat apparatus.

The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunity block include a state health facility (California), a public university (Lamar University), a state-level cooperative purchasing vehicle serving multiple counties and public entities nationwide (Sourcewell), and an independent school district (Harlingen CISD). Geographic activity appears limited to California and Texas, with Sourcewell's cooperative framework serving a national footprint of participating entities. Representatives of the code include California's outpatient facility furniture bid (RFB IS-27200168, due October 6, 2026) and Lamar University's IFB for motion rehabilitation systems (IFB 734-05202026-AS, due June 18, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. CDT). The mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual goods and services in recent solicitations suggests this Commodity code does not reflect active state and local procurement of physical therapy moist heat apparatus at present.
