UNSPSC 42291610: Surgical planes

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a plane during a surgical procedure in a medical setting Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901819.

UNSPSC 42291610 Surgical planes, a Commodity code, does not show relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities posted under or near this code span cooperative-purchasing master agreements for broad medical supplies (NASPO ValuePoint), physical health products and related services (Sourcewell), outpatient-building furniture (California), orthopedic hardware extraction system services (San Mateo County), and law-enforcement equipment (Sourcewell). None of these solicitations address surgical planes as a distinct product line or service offering.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the recent procurement activity suggests either that surgical planes are procured infrequently at the state and local level, are bundled into broader medical-supplies or surgical-instruments contracts that carry different UNSPSC codes, or are not a material category in current state and local healthcare purchasing. Vendors pursuing state and local opportunities in orthopedic or surgical services should monitor cooperative-purchasing vehicles such as NASPO ValuePoint and Sourcewell for broader medical-supply and healthcare-equipment solicitations, but direct procurement of surgical planes as a standalone commodity does not emerge from recent posting activity.
