UNSPSC 42272500: Anesthesia apparatus and accessories and supplies

In this classification, this class includes, apparatus, components, accessories, and supplies, utilized in Anesthesia based medical procedures.

UNSPSC 42272500 Anesthesia apparatus and accessories and supplies is a Class code that in practice encompasses a fragmented set of medical equipment, supplies, and maintenance services across state and local healthcare, education, and emergency-response procurement. Recent opportunities show little alignment with the nominal scope of anesthesia equipment; instead, state and local buyers are acquiring ventilators (including specialized units for respiratory care programs and maintenance contracts), automated external defibrators and associated batteries, medical and first-aid supplies for fire rescue operations, and related medical consumables. Issuing bodies include county school districts (Cobb County School District in Georgia, Klein ISD in Texas), county and municipal health and emergency services (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida, City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department), and technical colleges (Georgia Northwestern Technical College). Cooperative purchasing vehicles also appear—Sourcewell, acting as a State of Minnesota local government unit, issued a multi-jurisdictional RFP for law enforcement equipment available to thousands of governmental agencies across the United States and Canada.

Recent opportunities span California, Florida, Georgia, Texas, Minnesota, and Washington. Representative solicitations include Hillsborough County's ITB 26-00275 for three-year maintenance and repair services on 40 Vyaire Medical LTV 1200 ventilators, due June 12, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $140,225; Cobb County School District's RFQ Q27009 for AED equipment, batteries, and accessories, due July 6, 2026, with estimated expenditures of $50,000; Georgia Northwestern Technical College's eRFQ 82900CVT0000083 for a sole-brand Getinge Servo-u Ventilator for its Respiratory Care Program, due April 27, 2026; and the City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department's ITB 26-P-00145 for medical and first-aid supplies (169 line items), due March 13, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $700,000 and designated as a sheltered market for certified Small Local Business Enterprises with a 5% bid discount available.
