About UNSPSC 42293308

UNSPSC 42293308 Surgical compressors, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—surgical compressors used in operating room and clinical settings—does not align clearly with the recent opportunities tagged to it. The most recent solicitations under this code are for laser equipment and technical support services (San Mateo County), surgical power instruments (San Mateo County), outpatient building furniture (State of California), law enforcement equipment (Sourcewell cooperative on behalf of multiple state and local jurisdictions), and phlebotomy services (Nevada State Police)—none of which are surgical compressors or closely related medical equipment procurement. San Mateo Medical Center, a county-operated public hospital system, appears as the repeat buyer with two related but tangential solicitations for laser equipment and surgical power tools, both issued as RFPs with May 2026 posting dates and late-May 2026 response deadlines.

The geographic spread of the few opportunities on file spans California (San Mateo County and State of California) and Nevada, with a multi-state Sourcewell cooperative RFP (issued by the State of Minnesota but available to participating entities across the United States and Canada) that is not medical-equipment-specific. No recent opportunities reflect direct procurement of surgical compressors themselves. The code shows little current activity that aligns with its stated commodity scope, and business development professionals evaluating this code should prioritize identification of actual compressor purchasing patterns through direct outreach to hospital procurement offices, health system cooperative purchasing groups, and state health facility capital budgets rather than relying on the tagged-but-misaligned solicitations currently appearing in state and local notice systems.
