About UNSPSC 42151611

UNSPSC 42151611 Dental operative brushes (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. The single recent opportunity on record is a sole-source acquisition by Valencia College's School of Allied Health, Dental Hygiene Department for 4 iTero Lumina Scanners from Align Technology, Inc.—a high-end 3D digital intraoral imaging device that falls outside the dental operative brush category and represents a specialized equipment purchase rather than consumable brushes. The mismatch suggests the code may be tagged inconsistently in state and local procurement systems, or the opportunity database conflates dental equipment and supplies under a broad dental-products umbrella.

Valencia College posted the notice on November 18, 2025, with a due date of November 27, 2025, and a total acquisition cost of $143,196.00. The procurement was conducted as a sole-source justification under Florida Administrative Code 6A-14.0734(2)(a)(h) and Florida Statute 287.057, without competitive bidding and without explicit set-aside designations. This single Florida-based educational institution procurement does not establish a meaningful market signal for dental operative brushes at the state and local level. Recent solicitation activity under this Commodity code is insufficient to characterize issuing-body mix, geographic spread, or representative purchasing patterns for the product category.
