UNSPSC 42241812: Elbow brace

Orthopedic locking immobilization device

UNSPSC 42241812 Elbow brace is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The two most recent opportunities posted under this code are a building repair project (White County Board of Commissioners requesting termite-damage remediation and structural repairs to an EMS garage) and a medical and first aid supplies bid (City of Tampa sourcing respiratory equipment, cardiac monitoring electrodes, endotracheal tubes, and consumables for the Tampa Fire Department Rescue Division). Neither solicitation involves elbow braces or orthopedic support devices as typically understood under the code's name. The mismatch suggests either misclassification by the issuing bodies or that the code sees little relevant procurement activity in the state and local market.

The two posted opportunities originate from a county government (White County, Georgia) and a municipal government (City of Tampa, Florida). The White County Board of Commissioners posted a request for proposals (RFP) for ambulance garage repairs due July 31, 2026, requiring licensed commercial general contractors and performance/payment bonds at 100% of contract value. The City of Tampa's Purchasing Department posted an invitation to bid (ITB) for medical supplies (estimated contract value $700,000.00) due March 13, 2026, designated as a sheltered market opportunity for certified Small Local Business Enterprises with a 5% bid discount. Geographic activity is limited to Georgia and Florida based on the available sample.
