UNSPSC 42172011 Mobile medical technician EMT kits, a Commodity code, encompasses the emergency medical supplies and equipment that state and local EMS systems procure for frontline paramedics and EMTs, including airway management devices, IV administration sets, trauma dressings, diagnostic equipment, medications, and specialized devices such as intraosseous infusion systems. Recent solicitations reveal that counties, cities, and fire departments source these kits through both broad annual supply contracts and targeted equipment procurements, with issuing bodies spanning Williamson County and Henry County in Texas and Georgia, respectively, as well as Orange County, Bernalillo County, and Marion County Fire Rescue operations across Florida, New Mexico, and the broader Southeast. The work being solicited ranges from comprehensive multi-line medical supply catalogs (Williamson County IFB 26IFB63 for EMS medical and pharmaceutical items due August 4, 2026; Bernalillo County RFB 46-26-JM for approximately 266 core medical products with $240,000 estimated annual value, due May 21, 2026) to specialized single-product procurements such as intraosseous infusion systems (Marion County 09SS-103 for Vidacare EZ-IO devices, due May 11, 2026) and sole-source acquisitions of manufacturer-specific equipment like Hamilton-T1 transport ventilators and Handtevy pediatric emergency bags.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Florida, with Texas (Williamson County, Bernalillo County) and Florida (Orange County, Marion County, Clay County, Hillsborough County) showing the highest volume of posted opportunities. Issuing bodies consist primarily of county fire rescue and EMS departments supplemented by city fire departments, with Henry County demonstrating repeat procurement activity for annual medical supply contracts. The solicitation mix favors informal bids and RFBs for consumable medical supplies over formal RFPs, though some jurisdictions (Orange County for 94-line EMS equipment catalog Y25-1067-KS; City of Tucson for BLS/ALS pharmaceuticals and VendNovation vending integration) employ more complex procurement structures with federal compliance obligations, inventory management system integration, and multi-year requirements contracts. Delivery expectations typically include 48-hour to five-business-day fill rates, minimum 90–95 percent inventory fill rates, product expiration-date guarantees (12–24 months remaining), and web-based inventory management platform integration with county systems such as Operative IQ and UCAP devices.
