UNSPSC 42293527: Surgical irrigation set accessories

Accessories included with surgical irrigation sets.

UNSPSC 42293527 Surgical irrigation set accessories is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, encompasses surgical equipment, power instruments, and related operating room support rather than the narrower scope the code name suggests. State and local health systems—particularly public hospital and clinic systems—are procuring surgical power equipment, laser systems for OR use, and associated technical support services under this classification. The issuing bodies include county-operated medical centers and state healthcare facility capital projects, with San Mateo County's San Mateo Medical Center appearing twice in recent activity, once for surgical power equipment and once for laser equipment and technical support. These procurements emphasize compliance with HIPAA, background clearance requirements, insurance coverage (including general liability, professional liability, and cyber liability policies), prevailing wage obligations, and Section 504 accessibility standards.

Recent opportunities are concentrated in California. San Mateo County released an RFP for Surgical Power (solicitation 666002526249, due May 28, 2026) requiring a five-year contract term and minimum qualifications including five years of prior experience in manufacturing, sales, or leasing surgical power instruments, with evaluation weighted toward project approach (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), team qualifications (20 points), and price (25 points); the County applies a five percent preference for local businesses, with additional three to eight percent preferences for small or micro businesses. The same county issued an RFP for Laser equipment and Techs for the OR (solicitation 666002526250, due June 10, 2026), requiring vendors to demonstrate expertise in laser installation, maintenance, and technical staffing capable of supporting surgical procedures. The State of California posted multiple furniture-related bids for outpatient building projects that appear misaligned with the surgical irrigation accessories code classification, signaling potential categorization inconsistency in the state's procurement tagging.
