UNSPSC 42201713 Medical ultrasound or doppler or echocardiograph three dimensional components is a Commodity code encompassing ultrasound equipment and components purchased by state and local health systems, educational institutions, and transit authorities. State and local procurement under this code reflects a mix of capital equipment purchases—cart-based ultrasound systems, handheld point-of-care devices, and veterinary ultrasound units—alongside service contracts that incorporate equipment supply or maintenance. The scope spans both clinical healthcare settings and occupational health contexts, with recent solicitations emphasizing advanced imaging capabilities including Doppler modalities, PACS and EHR integration, and regulatory compliance (HIPAA, cybersecurity documentation). Issuing bodies include state transportation departments, university systems, and community health centers; work is being solicited by health-system operators managing multisite networks, educational procurement offices, and transit agency occupational health programs.

Recent activity appears concentrated in the Pacific Northwest and Texas. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT), on behalf of the Washington State Ferries, issued RFP 20260825 due October 9, 2026, for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry locations—a contract in which ultrasound and diagnostic imaging may be ancillary to physician-led occupational exams. Central Texas Community Health Centers (CommUnityCare) issued RFP 2026-05-001 due June 11, 2026, requesting point-of-care ultrasound equipment consisting of three cart-based systems with advanced imaging modes (Color Doppler, Power/Directional PDI, Pulsed-Wave Doppler, Continuous-Wave Doppler) and three handheld cordless devices, along with maintenance, training, and Epic integration across 22 Travis County locations. The University of Wisconsin-Madison issued RFB 2027-UWMSN-01412 due July 30, 2026, for veterinary ultrasound units. Cost-based evaluation is typical; CommUnityCare weighted total cost of ownership at 15 points and compliance with specifications at 20 points out of a 100-point scale, and WSDOT used a 40/60 cost-to-non-cost split. No incumbent vendors or set-asides are currently documented across these three solicitations.
