UNSPSC 42295104: Electrosurgical or electrocautery equipment

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as electrosurgical or electrocautery equipment during a surgical procedure in a medical setting Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42295104 Electrosurgical or electrocautery equipment is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it show limited direct alignment with the code's nominal scope. San Mateo County Medical Center solicited laser equipment and associated technical support services for operating room use via RFP (proposal due July 10, 2026), a procurement that overlaps with surgical instrumentation but centers on laser technology provision and technician staffing rather than electrosurgical devices per se. A second opportunity from the State of California (RFB-IS-26200983, due June 4, 2026) appears to address information systems infrastructure unrelated to electrosurgical equipment. A third opportunity from Sourcewell (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026) targets law enforcement equipment across multiple Washington state counties and participating entities nationwide, with no evident connection to medical electrosurgery. The code shows little relevant recent activity, and the posted opportunities reflect a tagging mismatch rather than substantive procurement demand under the code's stated commodity definition.

The geographic spread captured in the recent block includes California (San Mateo County and statewide), Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties), and Minnesota (Sourcewell as contracting agent). The San Mateo County opportunity remains the only solicitation with direct medical equipment relevance, requiring vendor compliance with HIPAA, Section 504 accessibility standards, fingerprinting and background certification for all personnel, and the County's Living Wage Ordinance; award value and contract term are not disclosed in the summary materials. Prospective vendors should review complete RFP documents directly to confirm scope alignment and financial parameters, as the code itself does not currently reflect active state and local demand for electrosurgical or electrocautery equipment.
