UNSPSC 42293300: Surgical distraction and compression and combination instruments and related product

In this classification, this class includes, products, components, accessories, and supplies, utilized as surgical distraction and compression and combination instruments in surgical procedures.

UNSPSC 42293300 Surgical distraction and compression and combination instruments and related product is a Class code that encompasses surgical power equipment, laser systems for operating room use, and related technical support services. State and local governments buying under this code procure capital equipment for surgical facilities—primarily power instruments, laser platforms, and associated maintenance and technician staffing to support acute-care hospital operations. San Mateo County Medical Center, a fully accredited public hospital system serving San Mateo County, has posted two recent RFPs addressing this scope: one soliciting surgical power equipment to replace obsolete instruments (five-year contract term, posted May 7, 2026, with proposal deadline May 28, 2026) and a second seeking laser equipment and qualified operating room technicians (RFP posted May 13, 2026, with proposal deadline June 10, 2026). Both solicitations require vendors to meet strict compliance standards including HIPAA Business Associate Agreement obligations, Section 504 Rehabilitation Act accessibility requirements, Living Wage Ordinance minimums currently at $17.00 per hour with annual CPI-U adjustments capped at 3.5 percent, and California Labor Code prevailing wage where applicable. San Mateo County applies a local business preference—five percent additional evaluation points for local businesses and nonprofits, with an additional three percent for small businesses or eight percent for micro businesses. The surgical power procurement explicitly requires minimum qualifications including five years of prior experience in manufacturing, sales, or leasing; legal authorization to do business in California; SAM registration; debarment certifications; and specified insurance coverage of $1,000,000 general liability per occurrence, $1,000,000 professional liability per occurrence/$3,000,000 aggregate, and $5,000,000 cyber liability per occurrence for privacy and network security.

Recent activity under the code concentrates in California, specifically San Mateo County. The representative solicitations are both RFPs from the same issuing body within a two-week window in May 2026, indicating sustained capital equipment refresh cycles at publicly operated hospital systems. No specific contract values or budget ranges are disclosed in the available procurement documents. The code shows limited recent activity in the sample provided—the remaining opportunities in the source (State of California outpatient furniture solicitations, a Sourcewell law enforcement equipment cooperative, a Gainesville Regional Utilities air compressor procurement, and a Nevada State Police phlebotomy services contract) are unrelated to surgical instruments or operating room equipment and represent misclassification or cross-code tagging by the issuing bodies.
