UNSPSC 42191500: Medical facility materials handling and distribution equipment

In this classification, this class includes material handling and distribution equipment, products, accessories and supplies, utilized in a medical facility

UNSPSC 42191500 Medical facility materials handling and distribution equipment is a Class code under which state and local governments procure furniture, fixtures, and ergonomic seating systems for healthcare outpatient facilities, medical examination spaces, and occupational health service delivery environments. The code captures fixed and mobile installations—workstations, storage solutions, examination-room furnishings, and related healthcare-compliant fixtures—that support clinical operations and patient flow. Recent solicitations show state purchasing departments and specialized public agencies (state transportation departments operating ferry systems, regional health authorities) as the primary buyers. Work typically involves sealed competitive bidding with firm fixed pricing that includes procurement, delivery, site installation, and assembly; prevailing wage requirements and certified business enterprise set-asides apply in some jurisdictions.

California and Washington have posted the most recent activity under the code. The State of California issued RFQ 743-26019 in August 2026 (due September 10) for outpatient building furniture with CBE participation requirements and detailed ergonomic and healthcare-standards compliance specifications. The Washington State Department of Transportation issued RFP 20260825 in August 2026 (due October 9) for occupational medical surveillance services and associated medical examination environments across fourteen Washington ferry terminals and shipyard locations, with a two-year initial term and extension options through year seven; a pre-bid conference was held August 31, 2026, and the Apparent Successful Bidder was announced October 20, 2026. A Sourcewell cooperative purchasing RFP (061626) posted in May 2026 for law enforcement equipment draws participation from multiple Washington counties and represents a multi-state cooperative framework, though this opportunity sits outside the medical-facility scope and suggests potential code-tagging variability in state and local systems.
