UNSPSC 42183047: Viewing stands for vision acuity testing

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a device that acts as a stand to hold up a visual acuity testing instrument in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901811.

UNSPSC 42183047 Viewing stands for vision acuity testing is a Commodity code, though state and local procurement activity under this specific code is not reflected in recent solicitations. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Sourcewell RFP #061626 for law enforcement equipment, posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline—addresses general law enforcement equipment procurement through a cooperative purchasing vehicle and does not involve vision acuity testing stands or optometric equipment. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitation content suggests this code either sees minimal state and local purchasing activity or is infrequently applied to relevant opportunities in available procurement systems.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on behalf of participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington state, plus numerous other jurisdictions across the United States and Canada. The RFP sought to establish a contracting solution available to governmental agencies, higher education institutions, school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities, but the procurement scope does not align with vision acuity testing equipment. Bidders were required to submit proposals through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal by June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time. Without recent opportunities actually soliciting viewing stands for vision acuity testing, current market demand under this code cannot be assessed from available state and local records.
