UNSPSC 42294910: Endoscopic monopolar or bipolar cable

UNSPSC 42294910 Endoscopic monopolar or bipolar cable is a Commodity code that bears no relevance to the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The five most recent opportunities span fiber-optic splicing and maintenance services, medical supplies through a NASPO cooperative purchasing framework, handheld retinal screening devices integrated with electronic health records, physical health products and services, structured cabling and installation, and law enforcement equipment — none of which align with endoscopic surgical cables. The code shows no detectable recent state and local solicitation activity for the product it nominally describes.

The mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual procurements posted under it suggests either a data-quality issue in the tagging system or a fundamental misalignment in how this Commodity code has been indexed. Business development professionals should treat this code as dormant for state and local opportunity purposes and verify the correct UNSPSC taxonomy with state or local procurement offices before pursuing opportunities tagged under it. The issuing bodies involved — Suwannee Valley Electric Cooperative (Florida), Texas (via NASPO ValuePoint), San Mateo County Medical Center (California), Sourcewell (Minnesota cooperative), Orange County Sheriff-Coroner Department (California), and multiple jurisdictions through Sourcewell — are legitimate state and local procurement sources, but none appear to be buying endoscopic surgical equipment or cables under this code.
