About UNSPSC 42202101
UNSPSC 42202101 Brachytherapy intracavity containers or seeds (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for Washington State Ferries employees—involves baseline, periodic, follow-up, and exit medical examinations for shipyard workers, engine crew, deck crew, and asbestos team members across 14 ferry system locations. This solicitation is unrelated to brachytherapy devices or medical seeds and instead reflects occupational health monitoring delivered by physicians board-certified in occupational medicine. The mismatch between the code's therapeutic-device scope and the actual work being procured suggests either miscoding by the issuing body or that this Commodity code does not see meaningful activity in state and local markets at present.
The Washington State Department of Transportation issued the sole recent opportunity (RFP20260825) with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026. Evaluation is cost-based, with pricing weighted at 40 percent and non-cost factors at 60 percent; a voluntary Subcontractor Inclusion Plan is available with zero participation carrying no penalty. The Apparent Successful Bidder will be announced October 20, 2026, with contract award anticipated by November 30, 2026. Given the absence of recent brachytherapy-related solicitations, business development professionals pursuing this Commodity code should treat it as inactive in current state and local procurement and focus efforts on other therapeutic-device or occupational-health codes with documented bidding activity.
