UNSPSC 42291902 Surgical tube holders or positioners, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The solicitations posted under this code in 2026 include laser equipment and technical support for operating rooms, surgical power instruments, outpatient building furniture, law enforcement equipment, and phlebotomy services — none of which directly correspond to surgical tube holders or positioning devices. The code appears to capture medical facility and equipment procurement more broadly, but the recent opportunities do not center on tube holders, positioners, or related surgical positioning consumables or devices.

Activity originates from San Mateo County (San Mateo Medical Center), the State of California, the State of Nevada, and Sourcewell (a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle serving multi-state and multi-jurisdiction participation). San Mateo County issued two RFPs in May and June 2026 for laser equipment and surgical power instruments; California posted two IFBs in May 2026 for outpatient building furniture with Certified Business Enterprise set-asides; Nevada State Police solicited phlebotomy services in March 2026 with Carson Valley Health as the intended award; and Sourcewell issued an RFP in May 2026 for law enforcement equipment on behalf of Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, Yakima County, and numerous other participating entities across the United States and Canada. Geographic concentration centers on California and Nevada, with multi-state cooperative purchasing participation through Sourcewell. The code shows no recent activity purchasing surgical tube holders or positioning equipment specifically, limiting its relevance as a procurement category for vendors in that product line.
