UNSPSC 42182010 Medical exam specula holders or stands is a Commodity code that encompasses stands, holders, and support equipment for clinical examination specula used in healthcare settings. State and local governments procure these items primarily through medical supply cooperative purchasing vehicles that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions and agencies to achieve volume pricing and standardized contracting terms. Issuing bodies include state health departments, state procurement offices administering cooperative agreements, and participating entities within regional and national cooperative purchasing consortiums. The code sees activity through master-agreement frameworks that establish pricing and terms for medical supply distribution to state agencies and other eligible public entities.

Recent activity centers on NASPO ValuePoint cooperative purchasing solicitations. The NASPO ValuePoint RFP NVP_1443 Idaho Medical Supplies (solicitation NVP1433, due November 9, 2026) is sponsored by Idaho state agencies and open to NASPO ValuePoint participating entities across multiple states, seeking comprehensive product catalogs and competitive unit pricing for medical supplies across multiple categories with potential volume discounts. A parallel NASPO ValuePoint Medical Supplies RFP 1433 (solicitation 26RFP1433, also due November 9, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. Mountain Time) establishes master agreements with South Dakota as the administering state, open to state and local government entities across multiple states through Idaho's procurement system or the NASPO ValuePoint website. No unrelated opportunities appear in recent records — a third-party Sourcewell law enforcement equipment solicitation on the posting list does not pertain to this code.
