UNSPSC 42202304: Medical linear accelerator intensity modulated radiation therapy IMRT accessories

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is either an accessory or consumable associated with medical linear accelerator intensity modulated radiation therapy unit. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901819.

UNSPSC 42202304 Medical linear accelerator intensity modulated radiation therapy IMRT accessories is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—specialized oncology equipment components—does not align with recent state and local procurement activity under this classification. The Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of the Washington State Ferries, posted RFP20260825 on August 25, 2026 (due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance services including baseline, periodic, follow-up, and exit examinations for shipyard workers, engine crew, deck crew, and asbestos team members across 14 Washington ferry terminals and work locations. The code shows a significant mismatch between its intended taxonomy and actual purchasing behavior: the single recent opportunity reflects occupational health screening and medical record management, not radiation therapy accessories. Services procured under this apparent classification include physician-supervised examinations, regulatory compliance documentation, and 24/7 technical support for exam scheduling and record retrieval—none of which falls within IMRT or linear accelerator equipment families.

The code displays minimal relevant recent activity for state and local procurement professionals evaluating actual IMRT accessory opportunities. Washington State Ferries is the sole issuing body with a recent posting under this classification, and the work being solicited (occupational medical surveillance) suggests a tagging error rather than genuine commodity-code alignment. The RFP uses cost-based scoring (40 percent pricing, 60 percent non-cost factors), requires responses by October 9, 2026, and anticipates award by November 30, 2026. A voluntary Subcontractor Inclusion Plan is available. Before committing resources to opportunities tagged under this code, verify the actual scope of work in each solicitation; this code's recent history indicates that state and local jurisdictions may be misclassifying medical services that belong in occupational health rather than oncology equipment categories.
