UNSPSC 42271922: Supraglottic ventilatory devices

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used to mange difficult airway conditions it is placed blindly in the lower pharynx overlying the glottis of the patient in a medical setting Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42271922 Supraglottic ventilatory devices is a Commodity code, but the most recent state and local opportunities on file show little direct procurement activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. The three recent opportunities tagged to this code span law enforcement equipment frameworks, career technical education instructional resources, and fire rescue medical and first aid supplies — none of which center on supraglottic airway devices. The law enforcement and education procurements are broad category-level solicitations that do not specify airway equipment in their summaries, while the Tampa Fire Department's medical supplies bid lists respiratory equipment and airway devices generically without naming supraglottic devices as a line item. The mismatch suggests either misclassification in the state and local procurement systems or a narrower application of the code than the recent opportunities indicate.

The geographic spread of the three opportunities spans Washington state (Sourcewell cooperative with county participation), Texas (Klein ISD in Harris County), and Florida (City of Tampa), with Sourcewell's framework designed to serve participating entities nationwide. The City of Tampa's medical and first aid supplies bid (ITB 26-P-00145, due March 13, 2026, estimated contract value $700,000) is sheltered for certified Small Local Business Enterprises with a 5% bid discount cap of $10,000, and requires delivery within five working days with expiration dates no less than nine months from acceptance. Klein ISD's RFP 26-101 (due June 5, 2026) encourages HUB, MWBE, and SBE participation and evaluates on best value including long-term cost over a one-year initial term with four optional renewals beginning September 1, 2026. Without recent opportunities specifically soliciting supraglottic ventilatory devices as discrete line items or equipment categories, the code shows limited active state and local procurement visibility under its precise commodity definition.
