UNSPSC 42261605 Autopsy body boards is a Commodity code covering forensic and crime scene equipment and supplies purchased by state and local law enforcement and investigative agencies. The recent opportunities under this code predominantly involve procurement of crime scene investigation consumables and equipment rather than autopsy-specific apparatus — the source shows state and local agencies buying forensic collection kits, evidence containers, fingerprint supplies, DNA swab materials, sharps containers, forensic chemicals, and related crime scene response equipment. The issuing bodies are primarily county sheriff's offices, city police departments, and state-level cooperative purchasing vehicles. Harris County, Texas and the City of Dallas Police Department appear as direct purchasers; Sourcewell, a Minnesota-based local government cooperative, is establishing contracting vehicles on behalf of multiple participating jurisdictions across the country.

Recent opportunities span Texas and the Upper Midwest with national reach through cooperative purchasing. Harris County Sheriff's Office issued an ITB for Crime Scene Supplies and Related Items with a response date of June 8, 2026, seeking DNA collection items, evidence bags, fingerprint supplies, sharps containers, and chemicals on an as-needed basis with a one-year term. The City of Dallas Police Department Crime Scene Response unit issued a bid (IFSDPDB2600026) due June 26, 2026 for forensic equipment, though specific product types were not detailed in available solicitation materials. The University of Wisconsin-Madison procured Implied Consent Blood Draw Kits (RFB 2027-UWMSN-01386) with a response deadline of August 3, 2026. Sourcewell posted RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of participating entities across multiple states with a deadline of June 16, 2026, and separately issued RFP 26RFP102026 for Physical Health Products and Related Services due October 20, 2026, representing a cooperative-purchasing vehicle model spanning thousands of public entities. The code shows active procurement activity concentrated in law enforcement operational needs rather than medical examiner or pathology autopsy equipment.
