UNSPSC 42181711: Electrocardiography EKG telephony transmitter or receiver systems

In this classification, this commodity indicates the peripheral telephony transmitting and receiving unit for a product that can record and measure electronic waves generated from the heart of a human. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42181711 Electrocardiography EKG telephony transmitter or receiver systems is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local contracting activity does not align with its nominal scope. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 to establish a law enforcement equipment contracting solution for participating public entities across multiple states and Canada, with a June 16, 2026 response deadline. The solicitation targets a broad procurement framework spanning thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public sector entities. However, the available documentation does not specify whether EKG telephony transmission systems or any cardiac monitoring equipment constitute part of the law enforcement equipment scope, nor does it detail the specific product categories, technical requirements, or equipment classes included in the procurement.

The geographic spread encompasses Washington state (Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County are explicitly named) and participation extends throughout the United States and Canada through Sourcewell's cooperative model, though the solicitation materials do not enumerate all participating jurisdictions. Vendors must submit proposals through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal at https://proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov by June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time; no set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, or award values are identified in the available documentation. The lack of alignment between the Commodity code's medical-device framing and the law enforcement equipment scope suggests either a coding mismatch in the state or local system or a procurement vehicle where EKG systems represent only a subset of a much broader equipment portfolio.
