UNSPSC 42142304 Medical chart papers and forms (Commodity) sees sparse activity in recent state and local procurement, with posted opportunities showing significant scope drift from the code's nominal definition. Of the eight recent solicitations in the dataset, only two directly match medical chart dividers: the City of Philadelphia issued two separate micro-purchase requirements contracts (B2727450 in July 2026 and B2627193 in May 2026), each for medical chart dividers with one-year initial terms and three optional one-year renewals. The remaining six opportunities—Henry County, Georgia fire department medical supplies; Clackamas County, Oregon clinical decision support software; Pinellas County, Florida drug reference standards; San Mateo County coding audits; Travis County infusion therapy consulting; and Trinity Metro litigation support—fall outside the commodity's scope. The code shows minimal issuing-body concentration and no clear geographic trend. Philadelphia municipal procurement appears twice under this code, but the sample is too small to characterize repeat-buyer patterns reliably.

Philadelphia's two medical chart divider solicitations represent the only concrete recent activity directly aligned with the Commodity code. The May 2026 bid (B2627193) carried a maximum contract value of $43,000 adjusted annually by CPI-U, with award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; the July 2026 solicitation (B2727450) structure was similar, with the same emphasis on requirements contracting through June 2027 with three renewal options. Both required vendors to submit executed Consent and Authorization Agreements through PHLContracts.phila.gov and complete all mandatory questions and cost entries, with Philadelphia accepting award by line item or whole. Neither opportunity disclosed a specific incumbent or detailed volume forecast. The code appears dormant outside Philadelphia and warrants monitoring for emerging activity, though the two municipal opportunities suggest minimal current market concentration in state and local government procurement for this commodity.
