UNSPSC 42201815 Medical x ray units for general diagnostic use is a Commodity code capturing state and local procurement of X-ray imaging equipment and related services for diagnostic, educational, and inspection applications. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring diagnostic radiography simulators for training programs, sole-source medical imaging systems (ultrasound and intraoral scanners), proprietary baggage and cargo inspection systems, and maintenance agreements for existing scanner infrastructure. The scope extends beyond traditional medical diagnostics to include educational simulation equipment for radiologic technology and dental hygiene programs, security screening systems for airports and corrections facilities, and specialized repair and maintenance services tied to proprietary scanning equipment. Issuing bodies span state education systems (Colorado Northwestern Community College, Georgia Northwestern Technical College), county aviation departments (Broward County, Florida), county school boards (Polk County, Florida), corrections departments (Illinois), university systems (Texas A&M), and community colleges (Valencia College, Florida). Educational institutions and specialized government operations (aviation security, corrections) drive recent activity; sole-source and brand-specific procurements are common when equipment integrates with existing proprietary systems or carries manufacturer-exclusive warranties.

Recent opportunities show concentrated activity in Florida, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, and Texas. Colorado Northwestern Community College posted four documented quotes between April 9 and April 16, 2026, for a single non-radiographic x-ray simulator at $35,000, with response deadline April 16, 2026 and preferred installation by May 30, 2026; SDVOSB respondents receive a 5 percent price preference. Broward County Aviation Department issued an RFI (response due July 28, 2026) to determine whether maintenance and repair services for Rapiscan 600/900 series and VOTI X-ray inspection systems are available from sources other than Rapiscan, or whether competing systems meet county needs—a sole-source challenge notice. Valencia College (Florida) pursued sole-source procurements for a Philips Affiniti 70 Ultrasound System ($96,093) and four iTero Lumina intraoral scanners ($143,196) under Florida's sole-source authority. The School Board of Polk County posted an RFP for a VMI Spectrum 6040 C X-ray scanner or approved equivalent with a three-day proposal window (deadline March 9, 2026). The Illinois Department of Corrections solicited a one-year maintenance agreement for six LineV Clearpass full-body scanning systems (bid due February 11, 2026) covering on-site repair, preventative maintenance, parts replacement, and radiological compliance testing across six correctional facilities. Texas A&M University System issued an ITB for a ceiling-mounted flexible C-arm (bid due March 11, 2026).
