UNSPSC 42182407: Ear fenestrometers

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as an instrument used for measuring and marking both sides of the fenestrometer during middle ear surgery in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901811.

UNSPSC 42182407 Ear fenestrometers, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The two recent opportunities tagged to this code—a City of St. Marys, Georgia RFP for audio-visual services in a new council chamber and municipal court room, and a Valencia College District RFP for classroom and conference room technology services across nine Florida campuses—both address integrated audio-visual and technology system design, installation, and support rather than ear fenestrometers specifically. The St. Marys solicitation, posted June 16, 2026, with proposals due July 17, 2026, calls for two configuration options ranging from interior recording and amplification with ADA compliance to expanded capability including individual council-member monitors, YouTube streaming with live captioning, and hallway displays. The Valencia College RFP, posted April 6, 2026, with proposals due April 30, 2026, encompasses turnkey provision of classroom and conference room technology across approximately 900 spaces, including projectors, interactive document cameras, loudspeakers, wireless display support, and touch control panels, with historical annual spending around $1.6 million and a contract structure of three years initially with optional one-year extensions up to five years total.

Both opportunities indicate that this code may be receiving mislabeled submissions in state and local procurement systems. The issuing bodies reflect typical municipal and higher-education customer bases—a city government and a community college district. Geographically, the recent activity spans Georgia and Florida. Neither opportunity describes the purchase or service of ear fenestrometers as a discrete product line; the code appears to have limited genuine applicability in current state and local procurement, and vendors evaluating this code should verify whether opportunities tagged to it represent actual market demand or system classification errors before investing business development resources.
