UNSPSC 42295109 Operating room kick buckets is a Commodity code that encompasses surgical equipment and supporting technical services for hospital operating rooms, based on recent state and local solicitations that frame the work as laser equipment provision, surgical power instruments, and related OR facility support. State and local buyers under this code include county health systems and hospital operators, with San Mateo County Medical Center (SMMC) appearing as a repeat issuer in the recent opportunity set. The scope of work spans equipment procurement, installation, maintenance, technical staffing, and integration with existing hospital infrastructure, with vendors required to meet HIPAA compliance, California prevailing wage standards (currently $17.00 per hour minimum), Living Wage Ordinance requirements, background certification, fingerprinting, and facility access credentialing.

Recent activity concentrates in California and Texas. San Mateo County issued two substantive RFPs in May and June 2026: a request for Laser equipment and Techs for the OR (Solicitation 666002526250, due July 10, 2026) and a Surgical Power equipment RFP (Solicitation 666002526249, due May 28, 2026) with a five-year contract term, requiring minimum qualifications including five years of prior experience in manufacturing, sales, or leasing, general liability insurance at $1,000,000 per occurrence, professional liability at $1,000,000 per occurrence / $3,000,000 aggregate, and cyber liability at $5,000,000 per occurrence. San Mateo County applies a Procurement Preference for Local Businesses Ordinance granting five percent additional points to local businesses and nonprofits, plus three percent for small businesses or eight percent for micro businesses. Texas A&M University System issued an ITB for a ceiling-mounted flexible C-arm (TAMUS-ITB-25-0516) on March 11, 2026. The recent-opportunities block contains no other solicitations directly aligned with the code's operating room equipment scope, suggesting limited concurrent activity outside the San Mateo County procurements.
