UNSPSC 42295148: Surgical navigation systems

In this classification, this commodity indicates a system consisting of products, consumables and accessories that are used to execute a surgical navigation procedure in a medical setting. US FDA regulates surgical navigation systems under 21 CFR 882.4560 and under FDA product code HAW. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42295148 Surgical navigation systems (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally covers surgical navigation systems—intraoperative imaging and guidance technologies used to improve surgical precision—yet the recent opportunities tagged under this code span laser equipment for operating rooms, surgical power instruments, outpatient furniture, law enforcement equipment, and phlebotomy services. Only the laser equipment and surgical power solicitations from San Mateo County have any plausible connection to surgical infrastructure, but neither involves navigation systems or intraoperative guidance technology.

The mismatch between code assignment and actual procurement scope makes this code an unreliable signal for forecasting state and local demand. San Mateo County Medical Center (a county public hospital system in California) issued two substantive RFPs in May and June 2026—one for laser equipment and technical support for OR use and another for surgical power instruments to replace obsolete equipment—both with five-year terms and compliance requirements including HIPAA, Living Wage Ordinance, and background clearances. Neither procurement targets navigation systems. The remaining three opportunities—California state furniture solicitations for outpatient buildings, a Sourcewell cooperative purchasing RFP for law enforcement equipment spanning multiple states and counties, and Nevada State Police phlebotomy services—fall entirely outside surgical navigation scope. No recent opportunities show procurement of surgical navigation systems, intraoperative imaging, or surgical guidance technology under this code.
