UNSPSC 42296216: Surgical robotic instrument accessories

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is either an accessory or consumable associated with surgical robotic instrument. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42296216 Surgical robotic instrument accessories (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity tagged under this code—Sourcewell RFP #061626, posted May 12, 2026, with a June 16, 2026 response deadline—solicits law enforcement equipment through a cooperative purchasing vehicle administered by the State of Minnesota on behalf of multiple jurisdictions including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties in Washington, along with numerous other public entities across the United States and Canada. The mismatch is stark: surgical robotic instrument accessories bear no relationship to law enforcement equipment procurement, suggesting either a data classification error in the state and local opportunity record or a misalignment between the code assignment and the actual scope of work being bought.

The Sourcewell cooperative structure—which establishes framework agreements for use by thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofits, and tribal governments—typically enables broad market reach and standardized contracting terms, but this particular solicitation falls outside the surgical robotics space entirely. Geographic spread cannot be reliably characterized from a single opportunity, and that opportunity does not represent authentic demand for surgical robotic instrument accessories at the state and local level. Vendors in the surgical robotics accessories sector should treat this code as inactive for current state and local procurement purposes and monitor other channels for health system purchasing related to robotic surgery platforms.
