UNSPSC 42192208: Wheelchair accessories

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is either an accessory or consumable associated with wheelchairs. US FDA regulates Wheelchair accessories under 21 CFR 890.3910 and under FDA product code IML. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 871310.

UNSPSC 42192208 Wheelchair accessories, a Commodity code, covers specialized components, parts, and add-on equipment for wheelchairs procured by state and local health and human services agencies, state parks authorities, and education cooperatives. State and local buyers under this code purchase track-wheelchair accessories (attendant controls, fishing rod holders, snow plow kits, protective covers), custom-wheelchair fabrication services and components (seat covers, contour cushions, mounts, brackets, back support), powered mobility upgrades, and bundled disability-assistance equipment through both direct procurement and master-contract catalogs. The issuing bodies span state health and human services commissions, state parks divisions, and regional purchasing cooperatives serving school districts and special education programs; Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer across multiple recent solicitations and service regions.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, where the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) has issued multiple IFBs and RFPs for custom wheelchairs and assistive technology services spanning state-operated facilities, supported living centers, and comprehensive rehabilitation services programs; the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department State Parks Division has posted competitive IFBs for powered track wheelchairs with accessories (IFB 8022781094R due September 2, 2026, and IFB 8022681094 due July 16, 2026, each for five units with specified minimum performance and accessory requirements); and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (Kilgore, Texas) posted a multi-vendor catalog-discount bid for special education and supplies (SPE2628 due October 1, 2026, estimated two-year contract value $2.7 million) serving cooperative member school districts. California also shows activity: the State of California issued an RFB for outpatient-building furniture integrable with Stryker EVA medical equipment (RFB-IS-27200040 due August 5, 2026), though the scope emphasizes furniture rather than wheelchair accessories per se. HHSC contracts typically include HUB subcontracting requirements (ranging from 21.1 percent utilization goals), Assistive Technology Professional certifications, response-time service standards, and firm fixed-price or unit-pricing models across geographic service regions and multi-year terms with optional renewals.
