UNSPSC 42143128: Fetal acoustic stimulators

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is used to wake a fetus with sound and vibration during a nonstress test in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901811.

UNSPSC 42143128 Fetal acoustic stimulators (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. A single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Sourcewell RFP #061626, posted May 12, 2026 with response due June 16, 2026—solicits law enforcement equipment on behalf of a multi-state cooperative purchasing vehicle, not fetal acoustic stimulation devices. The solicitation scope, issuing body (Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative), and the named participating entities (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties in Washington, along with jurisdictions across the United States and Canada) indicate a mismatch between the UNSPSC code designation and the actual procurement need. No other recent state and local opportunities under this code are evident in the source material.

The code does not reflect meaningful activity in the state and local procurement landscape as of October 2026. When state and local procurement offices need fetal acoustic stimulators—typically for obstetric ultrasound or fetal assessment equipment in hospital systems, public health departments, or academic medical centers—they rarely tag opportunities to this specific Commodity code or do so inconsistently. Vendors pursuing state and local contracts in maternal and fetal health diagnostics or labor-and-delivery equipment should monitor state hospital purchasing consortia, regional health authority RFPs, and academic medical center solicitations directly rather than rely on this code as an indicator of active demand.
