UNSPSC 42142600: Syringes and accessories

In this classification, this class includes syringes and syringe components and accessories, utilized in a wide variety of medical interactions.

UNSPSC 42142600 Syringes and accessories is a Class code that covers the procurement of syringes and related delivery-system components by state and local health systems, emergency medical services, and health-benefit programs. Recent solicitations show state and local governments purchasing individual syringes, syringe-needle combinations, and infusion-delivery accessories for use in acute-care facilities, emergency response operations, clinical programs, and pharmacy benefit administration. The issuing-body mix spans state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Massachusetts Executive Office of Health and Human Services), county emergency medical services (Marion County, Florida), city fire departments (Tampa Fire Department), colleges and universities with medical or campus-health operations (Valencia College), and statewide cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell). A few jurisdictions appear in multiple recent opportunities—Texas HHSC and the City of Tampa each issued medical-supplies solicitations within the review window—but the code generally draws from fragmented, agency-level procurements rather than concentrated repeat buyers.

Activity appears concentrated in Texas and Florida, with recent national and regional multistate cooperative activity through Sourcewell. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017603 (July 30, 2026 response deadline) for medical supplies including syringes, feeding tubes, and IV accessories for the Abilene State Supported Living Center under a blanket purchase agreement structure; Marion County, Florida's procurement notice 09SS-103 (May 11, 2026 deadline) for Vidacare EZ-IO intraosseous infusion systems; the City of Tampa's sheltered-market invitation to bid 26-P-00145 (March 13, 2026 deadline) for 169 line items of medical and first aid supplies including syringes, with an estimated contract value of $700,000.00 and a 5% bid discount reserved for certified Small Local Business Enterprises; and the Massachusetts Executive Office of Health and Human Services' Request for Application for syringe rebate agreements through pharmacy fee-for-service claims (March 27, 2026 deadline), which covers syringe supply to MassHealth and Health Safety Net members with contract start anticipated January 1, 2027. The code sees episodic rather than steady activity, with solicitations typically embedded within broader medical-supplies or pharmacy-benefit procurement initiatives rather than standalone syringe-focused requests.
