UNSPSC 42296700: Surgical bone cements and related products

In this classification, this class includes, products, components, accessories, and supplies, utilized in surgical bone cementing based medical procedures.

UNSPSC 42296700 Surgical bone cements and related products, a Class code, shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope; state and local procurement under this code centers on orthopedic implant systems, spinal instrumentation, and hardware extraction services rather than bone cements specifically. The mismatch between the code's stated focus and the work actually being solicited suggests the code may be tagged inconsistently or used as a catch-all for orthopedic surgical supplies. Issuing bodies include public hospital systems, university health science centers, and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple jurisdictions. San Mateo Medical Center (a San Mateo County public hospital) and the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSA) have posted recent opportunities in related orthopedic surgery support; Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, has advertised law enforcement equipment procurement that does not appear related to this code's scope and likely represents a tagging error.

Recent activity concentrates in California and Texas. San Mateo Medical Center issued an RFP (Solicitation 666002526252, due July 1, 2026) for orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services on an as-needed basis for acute-care surgical procedures, with a local-business preference of 5 to 10 percent under San Mateo County ordinance and a three-year contract term; the scope requires ISO 13485:2016 certification, universal compatibility across multiple implant manufacturers, and Northern California-based technical support. UTHSA issued RFP 745-26-P04 (due March 10, 2026) for spinal implants and related surgical supplies on a bill-only basis for its newly opened Multispecialty and Research Hospital, encompassing cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral/pelvic spine constructs, artificial discs, interbody fusion devices, and related instrumentation, with mandatory Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) subcontracting plans and multi-award structure. Both opportunities require FDA approval or CE certification and impose substantial compliance obligations including HIPAA, state medical records privacy rules, and corporate compliance standards.
