UNSPSC 42201820: Medical radiographic equipment grids

UNSPSC 42201820 Medical radiographic equipment grids, a Commodity code, encompasses maintenance, inspection, and repair services for specialized X-ray systems used in security and diagnostic applications. State and local governments procure under this code primarily through aviation departments, county purchasing offices, and other specialized facilities operating proprietary X-ray inspection equipment. The work involves highly technical service delivery on complex, licensed systems where vendor capability to diagnose and repair sophisticated radiographic technology is the core requirement. Issuing bodies typically pursue these services through RFI (Request for Information) notices when sole-source or sole-brand justification is under review, or through standard RFP and RFQ vehicles when multiple qualified vendors are available.

Broward County Aviation Department posted an RFI on June 25, 2026, with responses due July 28, 2026, seeking to determine whether maintenance services for Rapiscan 600 series, 900 series, VOTI XR3D, and Gemini X-ray inspection systems are obtainable from vendors other than Rapiscan or whether comparable alternate systems meet departmental needs. The County characterized these systems as proprietary, licensed, and warranted exclusively by Rapiscan, making inspection and repair services highly specialized work. The RFI invites prospective vendors to demonstrate capability to meet or exceed requirements or to contest the sole-source designation by uploading supporting documentation through the County's electronic bidding system. The Director of Purchasing retains authority to determine what constitutes a comparable system and will notify all submitting vendors of the final sole-source designation decision. This represents the only recent state or local opportunity visible under the code, with no geographic spread beyond the Florida jurisdiction evident in current activity.
