UNSPSC 42295311: Vascular occluder or ligator accessories

UNSPSC 42295311 Vascular occluder or ligator accessories is a Commodity code that in recent state and local solicitations maps to a narrow set of surgical support equipment and related services rather than the discrete vascular accessories the code name suggests. The recent opportunities posted under this code span surgical power equipment procurement by San Mateo County Medical Center, laser equipment and technical support for operating rooms, phlebotomy services for the Nevada State Police, law enforcement equipment through a Sourcewell cooperative purchasing vehicle, and outpatient furniture for California state healthcare facilities. This mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited indicates the code sees little relevant recent activity in its stated product category. When opportunities are correctly tagged, the work involves acquisition of surgical instruments, equipment support, and technical staffing for acute-care hospital operations. Issuing bodies in recent postings include county health systems (San Mateo County Medical Center), state law enforcement and public safety agencies (Nevada State Police), state procurement offices (California), and cooperative purchasing intermediaries (Sourcewell on behalf of multiple counties and municipalities).

Recent activity concentrates in California and Nevada. San Mateo County Medical Center posted two RFPs in June and July 2026 for surgical power equipment replacement and laser equipment with technical support for operating room use, with response deadlines in late May and early June 2026 and evaluation criteria emphasizing project approach, firm qualifications, and compliance with Living Wage Ordinance and HIPAA requirements. The State of California issued competitive bids in May 2026 for outpatient building furniture across two separate solicitations (due June 4 and June 9, 2026) with Certified Business Enterprise set-aside provisions. Nevada State Police solicited phlebotomy services in March 2026 for Douglas County DUI enforcement (response due April 16, 2026), with Carson Valley Health identified as the intended award recipient. Sourcewell's June 2026 RFP for law enforcement equipment, while posted under this code, does not align with vascular accessories or surgical support and appears to be a category misclassification. The code shows no meaningful volume of correctly categorized opportunities in the recent posting window.
