UNSPSC 42291627 Surgical burr is a Commodity code that designates individual surgical cutting instruments for orthopedic and other surgical procedures. State and local procurement activity under this code focuses primarily on master-agreement and cooperative-purchasing vehicles that establish framework contracts for medical supplies and health products across multiple jurisdictions, rather than direct purchases of individual surgical instruments. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code are cooperative-purchasing organizations such as NASPO ValuePoint and Sourcewell acting on behalf of their participating state and local government entities, including counties, municipalities, state agencies, and public health systems. These vehicles enable individual health departments, county medical centers, public hospitals, and outpatient clinics to access negotiated pricing and terms without executing separate procurements.

Recent activity shows that surgical burrs are typically procured as part of broader medical-supplies master agreements rather than as standalone commodity purchases. NASPO ValuePoint issued RFP 1433 for Medical Supplies (due November 9, 2026) and Sourcewell issued RFP 26RFP102026 for Physical Health Products and Related Services (due October 20, 2026), both establishing cooperative-purchasing frameworks available to state and local entities. San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for Orthopedic Hardware Removal and Extraction System Services (due July 1, 2026) illustrates direct procurement of orthopedic surgical services and equipment by a public health system. Geographic activity includes South Dakota (administering NASPO ValuePoint), Minnesota (Sourcewell), and California (San Mateo County), with participation extending across multiple states through cooperative-purchasing participation models. The cooperative structure means that while specific surgical-burr volume or unit commitments are not disclosed in posted notices, the underlying demand flows from hundreds of state agencies, county health departments, municipal clinics, and public hospitals drawing on master agreements to source individual surgical instruments at negotiated rates.
