UNSPSC 42142304 Medical chart papers and forms (Commodity) covers standardized document systems and dividers used by healthcare provider organizations and emergency services to organize patient medical records, though recent state and local opportunities show material divergence from the nominal scope. The City of Philadelphia has posted two sealed-bid micro purchases for medical chart dividers—one in May 2026 with a maximum contract value of $43,000 through June 2027 plus three one-year renewals, and another in July 2026 as a requirements contract through June 2027 with identical renewal structure—both awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder on a line-item or whole-contract basis. Henry County, Georgia, issued an annual IFB in July 2026 for miscellaneous medical supplies and equipment for its Fire Department, requiring vendors to integrate with the County's UCAP devices and Operative IQ/IQ Tech inventory management systems and maintain a web-based inventory platform at no cost to the County. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include city procurement departments, county fire departments, and county health and human services functions. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Pennsylvania, with secondary activity in Oregon and Florida, and the code appears to serve primarily municipal and county healthcare and emergency services operations rather than state-level procurement.

The NASPO ValuePoint RFP NVP_1443 posted by Texas in October 2026 (due November 9, 2026) for Idaho-sponsored medical supplies through a cooperative purchasing consortium represents the broadest recent opportunity but lacks specificity about chart papers and forms within its multi-category scope. Clackamas County, Oregon, RFQ 2026-18 in June 2026 sought a Clinical Decision Support Tool with an estimated budget of $150,000—plainly unrelated to chart papers and forms. The Sourcewell RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment (due June 16, 2026) and the Pinellas County invitation to quote for certified drug standards (due April 23, 2026) similarly fall outside the code's nominal scope. Activity under this Commodity code is sparse and frequently mislabeled; the two Philadelphia micro purchases for chart dividers represent the only clearly on-scope recent opportunities, and neither discloses budget detail beyond contract term and renewal structure.
