UNSPSC 42294403: Transcatheter aortic valve loading system

A product that is a loading system for a transcatheter aortic valve that compresses the implant into the delivery system catheter.

UNSPSC 42294403 Transcatheter aortic valve loading system is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it show negligible relevant purchasing activity. Of five recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code, four concern arthroscopy systems and surgical instrumentation for temporomandibular joint procedures (the State of California, posted April 16, 2026, with May 5, 2026 due dates), one addresses outpatient building furniture (State of California, posted March 18, 2026), one seeks law enforcement equipment through a Sourcewell cooperative (posted May 12, 2026, due June 16, 2026), and one covers career and technical education instructional resources through Klein Independent School District in Texas (posted April 17, 2026, due June 5, 2026). None of these solicitations address transcatheter aortic valve systems, cardiac devices, or cardiovascular interventional equipment. The code appears to be a mismatch with the actual purchasing activity recorded in the recent-opportunities dataset.

The State of California accounts for the majority of recorded activity under this code designation, issuing three separate Requests for Bids for arthroscopy accessory systems (1.8mm, 1.9mm, and 2.7mm variants) with bid deadlines of May 5, 2026, all requiring Certified Business Enterprise (CBE) certification compliance and submission of mandatory purchasing forms. Geographic spread is limited to California (healthcare procurement), Texas (school district), Minnesota and Pacific Northwest counties (cooperative purchasing), and Canada-wide participation through Sourcewell. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitations recorded suggests either systematic miscoding in the source data or that this Commodity code is not actively pursued in state and local procurement markets for its intended purpose. Procurement professionals should verify the code assignment in source systems before allocating resources to pursue opportunities labeled under it.
