UNSPSC 42191619: Nurse communication system accessories

Cables, trackers, or communication nodules associated with call systems

UNSPSC 42191619 Nurse communication system accessories, a Commodity code, covers the installation, upgrade, and support of nurse call systems and related components in healthcare facilities. State and local governments procure these services primarily through health and human services departments operating state-run medical facilities, psychiatric centers, and infectious disease treatment centers. The work includes system design consultation, hardware installation, equipment integration with existing infrastructure, emergency and standard maintenance support, and personnel training on new or upgraded systems. Contractors must typically demonstrate multi-year experience in nurse call system installation and deployment, with assigned technicians holding relevant hands-on experience, and must meet rigorous insurance and response-time requirements including emergency service availability.

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission, procuring on behalf of the Texas Department of State Health Services, issued an Invitation for Bids (IFB) in February 2026 for a Nurse Call System upgrade and installation at the Texas Center for Infectious Disease in San Antonio, with a bid deadline of March 4, 2026. The contract included optional on-site visits in late February to allow bidders to assess facility conditions and project scope, a standard Q&A addendum cycle closing February 26, 2026, fixed-price bidding on a per-unit basis with all labor and materials included in unit rates, and an initial term through August 31, 2026 with one optional one-year extension. Contractors were required to provide Monday-through-Friday service availability with one-hour emergency response times and four-hour standard service response times, maintain $1 million in professional liability and commercial general liability coverage, and hold a minimum of five years' relevant experience. Recent activity under this code is limited; the source shows no other state or local nurse call system opportunities posted in the review period.
