UNSPSC 42203432 Intravascular occluding catheters is a Commodity code that state and local governments procure as part of medical supply inventories for specialized clinical and facility-based care. The recent solicitation activity under this code shows minimal direct alignment — the two opportunities posted in 2026 include occupational medical surveillance services from the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) and a mixed medical supplies and equipment procurement from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) for the Abilene State Supported Living Center. Neither opportunity explicitly foregrounds intravascular catheters as a primary procurement focus. The Texas HHSC solicitation (IFB HHS0017603) does reference catheters as one line item within a broader bundle of medical supplies and small tools, including gastrostomy feeding tubes, IV stabilization devices, feeding tubes, syringes, enteral feeding sets, and SpO2 sensors. The Washington opportunity involves occupational health examinations rather than medical supplies. State and local buying under this code appears to flow through health and human services departments, specialized care facilities, and state transportation agencies that operate ferry systems and employee health programs.

Geographic activity in recent months centers on Texas and Washington, with the HHSC procurement anchored in Abilene and the WSDOT opportunity spanning 14 Washington ferry terminals and service locations across the Puget Sound region (Anacortes, Bainbridge Island, Bremerton, Clinton, Coupeville, Edmonds, Kingston, Mukilteo, Port Orchard, Port Townsend, San Juan Islands, Seattle, Tacoma, and Vashion Island). The Texas HHSC blanket purchase agreement (HHS0017603) accepted bids through July 30, 2026, for a September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027 contract term with a one-year extension option; pricing was firm and fixed with CPI-W or Federal Minimum Wage adjustment provisions. The WSDOT RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical services closed October 9, 2026, with contract award anticipated by November 30, 2026. The code shows limited recent state and local activity in the posted-opportunities record, suggesting either narrow procurement volume or mismatch between the nominal scope and how jurisdictions actually code medical supply and equipment solicitations.
