UNSPSC 42143112 Obstetrical vacuum delivery systems is a Commodity code that names a specific medical device used in labor and delivery; however, the most recent state and local opportunity posted under this code shows a mismatch between the nominal scope and actual procurement activity. Sourcewell, a State of Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 seeking Law Enforcement Equipment — a category unrelated to obstetrical devices. The solicitation does not identify obstetrical vacuum delivery systems or any medical equipment within its stated scope. This suggests either a classification error in the state or local procurement system or that the code was applied to a broader, unrelated procurement. No recent opportunities support active state and local demand for obstetrical vacuum delivery systems as described by the code's commodity name.

The single recent opportunity tagged under this code serves as an illustration of the classification mismatch rather than a guide to actual market activity. Sourcewell's RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026, established a cooperative purchasing vehicle for law enforcement equipment across multiple Washington counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) and participating entities nationwide, with responses submitted through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal. The structure was designed to create a contracting solution available to governmental agencies, K-12 school districts, tribal governments, and nonprofits — a use case wholly outside obstetrical care. Sourced records do not support meaningful recent activity under this Commodity code for obstetrical vacuum delivery systems in state and local procurement.
