UNSPSC 42291635: Surgical trocars for general use

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is either an accessory or consumable associated with surgical trocars for general use. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901819.

UNSPSC 42291635 Surgical trocars for general use is a Commodity code with no recent state and local procurement activity that aligns with its scope. The most recent opportunities tagged to this code show a clear mismatch: a fiber splicing maintenance contract from Suwannee Valley Electric Cooperative in Florida; a statewide medical supplies RFP through NASPO ValuePoint sponsored by Idaho; handheld retinal screening devices and services from San Mateo Medical Center in California; a physical health products cooperative vehicle from Sourcewell in Minnesota; and a law enforcement equipment contracting solution through Sourcewell. None of these solicitations concern surgical trocars or related surgical instruments.

The code does not support a meaningful market characterization at this time. Business development professionals evaluating this Commodity code should treat it as inactive in state and local procurement and monitor for future opportunities under UNSPSC classifications that more directly reflect surgical instrument procurement, such as related Commodity codes under the Medical and Surgical Supplies and Devices Family.
