UNSPSC 42171612 Mobile medical services scoop stretchers is a Commodity code covering emergency medical equipment and supplies purchased by state and local emergency services and healthcare organizations. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reveal that buyers are acquiring a broad mix of emergency medical equipment and consumables—automated chest compression devices, EMS medical and pharmaceutical supplies, intraosseous infusion systems, ventilator maintenance, specialized transport equipment, AED batteries, first aid supplies, and occupational medical surveillance services. The issuing bodies span fire departments, emergency medical services agencies, counties, cities, and hospital systems across multiple states. Representative recent opportunities include the City of DeLand's sole-source procurement for AutoPulse NXT automated chest compression devices from Zoll Medical Corporation; Bernalillo County Fire & Rescue's RFB for approximately 266 core EMS medical products with an estimated annual value of $240,000 and a four-year contract term; and the City of Tucson Fire Department's RFB for BLS and ALS pharmaceuticals, supplies, and VendNovation vending machine services, federally funded through ARPA, HUD, and FTA grants with prevailing wage and Davis-Bacon compliance requirements.

Recent notices also originate from Ohio, Illinois, and through cooperative purchasing vehicles including Sourcewell serving multiple states nationwide. Procurement vehicles include traditional IFB, RFB, and RFP processes with response windows typically ranging from two to eight weeks; sole-source designations are common when equipment compatibility or authorized distributor requirements apply.
