UNSPSC 42262100: Mortuary equipment and supplies

In this classification, this class includes, the equipment and supplies utilized in mortuary management procedures.

UNSPSC 42262100 Mortuary equipment and supplies is a Class code that encompasses disaster response and emergency preparedness services involving human remains processing, storage, transport, and family services during public health emergencies, mass fatality events, and declared disasters. State and local governments procure strike-team personnel and mortuary infrastructure under this code—licensed funeral directors, trained funeral services staff, mobile mortuary trailers with cold storage capacity, and supporting logistics—alongside related supplies and equipment for remains identification, embalming, cremation, and family interfacing. The issuing bodies are primarily state health and human services departments, county emergency management divisions, and county animal welfare departments seeking standby capacity or equipment replacement rather than active service delivery in the current opportunity set.

Recent solicitations cluster in Texas and Florida. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB No. HHS0017352 on July 1, 2026, requiring a contractor to establish and maintain four strike teams with licensed funeral directors and non-licensed personnel trained in mortuary operations, deploy within 48 hours, provide storage for four state-owned 32-foot mortuary trailers within 125 miles of Waco, and participate in mass fatality response exercises, with responses due July 17, 2026 and historical spending of $269,485.68 from October 2022 through June 2026. Collier County, Florida issued RFP Solicitation No. 25-8416 on February 11, 2026, seeking a pool of qualified contractors for major incident standby services including manpower, supplies, and equipment with 12-hour mobilization and 96-hour full delivery requirements for disaster and emergency response, with proposals due March 18, 2026, and annual historical spending of approximately $1.2 million. Escambia County, Florida issued two resolicited ITQs—FREEZERJAN12 (due January 29, 2026) and FREEZERMAR2 (due March 9, 2026)—for walk-in freezer removal and replacement at the Animal Welfare and Adoption Center in Pensacola, which represent equipment procurement rather than mortuary services. The code shows limited recent activity focused on state-level mass fatality preparedness and county-level emergency response capability contracts, with Texas and Florida as the primary active jurisdictions.
