UNSPSC 42261704 Necropsy tables, a Commodity code, covers autopsy and mortuary equipment procurement by state and local medical examiners, public health agencies, and educational institutions. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying cadaver carriers, trays, bariatric equipment, mortuary trailers, and virtual dissection tables. Collin County Medical Examiner solicited Mopec autopsy cadaver carriers, standard and molded plastic trays, and bariatric carriers with hydraulic cranks under IFB 2026-430, with a firm-fixed-price contract valued at approximately $220,000 over twelve months. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission, procuring on behalf of HHSC and the Department of State Health Services, solicited mortality resources and services including operation and maintenance of four 32-foot mortuary trailers, strike-team staffing, and long-term storage under IFB HHS0017352v3 (responses due October 28, 2026), building on prior versions of the same solicitation issued in August and July 2026. Issuing bodies span county medical examiners' offices, state health departments, and community colleges—Rockland Community College solicited a virtual cadaver dissection table from Anatomage with responses due August 20, 2026.

Activity concentrates in Texas (HHSC and Collin County), with secondary procurement visible in Florida (Escambia County's walk-in freezer for animal welfare operations) and New York (Rockland Community College). The code shows narrow but consistent demand among specialized government users—medical examiners, public health emergency-response teams, and nursing education programs. Collin County's October 2026 IFB for cadaver carriers and trays required sealed bids by October 15, 2026, with 60-day delivery and installation required; bidders faced $1 million commercial general liability insurance minimums and proof of past performance on similar contracts. Texas HHSC's mortality resources procurement, reissued multiple times between July and October 2026, reflects ongoing difficulty reaching agreement on scope and pricing; the most recent iteration (v3) requires contractors to maintain four strike teams with licensed funeral directors and non-licensed professionals trained in ICS, deploy within 24 hours, and maintain historical-spend-based pricing capped at federal pay scales, with historical reference spend of $269,485.68 over roughly four years providing no volume guarantee.
