UNSPSC 42294720: Temperature monitoring needles

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is a hollow needle commonly used with a syringe to inject or extract substances or fluids associated with a procedure. US FDA regulates Temperature monitoring needles under 21 CFR 880.2910 and under FDA product code FLL. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 852849.

UNSPSC 42294720 Temperature monitoring needles, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it. The solicitations posted since late February 2026 center on Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs), cardiac monitors, defibrillator accessories, and related emergency medical equipment service plans—not temperature monitoring needles or probes. The code shows little relevant recent activity for its stated scope; the mismatch between the code's nominal definition and what state and local governments are actually purchasing under this tag suggests either classification drift in procurement systems or that temperature monitoring needles are not currently a material procurement category in the source dataset.

Recent opportunities tagged to this code instead reflect emergency medical equipment procurement across school districts, county fire and EMS operations, and municipal emergency services. Cobb County School District (Georgia) requested AED equipment and accessories with a $50,000 estimated spend (RFQ Q27009, due July 6, 2026); the City of Tampa (Florida) bid Cardiac Science Powerheart G5 AED units and related consumables with a $60,000 estimated contract value (IFB 26P00028, closed December 2025); Harris County (Texas) issued an RFP for AEDs and related items (RFP 260079, due May 18, 2026); Marion County (Florida) re-solicited blood pressure cuffs and hoses compatible with the LIFEPAK 15S defibrillator for Marion County Fire Rescue (re-solicitation 21044, due May 6, 2026); and the City of Orlando Fire Department sought an X-Series Defibrillator/Monitor service plan from Zoll Medical Corporation for 65 units under a sole-source designation worth $318,123.66 (S26-0394, due April 17, 2026). Activity spans Florida, Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and multi-state cooperative purchasing vehicles such as Sourcewell RFP 061626 for law enforcement equipment (due June 16, 2026). No opportunities targeting temperature monitoring needles specifically appear in the recent-opportunities block.
