About UNSPSC 42296818

UNSPSC 42296818 Surgical retriever sets (Commodity) shows limited and tangential recent state and local procurement activity; the code's nominal scope—surgical instruments for tissue retrieval—does not align with the opportunities the source documents. Recent solicitations tagged under this code involve laser equipment and technical support for operating rooms (San Mateo County), surgical power instruments (San Mateo County), outpatient building furniture (State of California), law enforcement equipment (Sourcewell cooperative on behalf of Washington and other jurisdictions), and phlebotomy services for DUI enforcement (Nevada State Police). None of these procurements address surgical retrievers as a discrete product line.

The geographic spread across the source materials—California, Nevada, Washington, and Minnesota—reflects the jurisdictions where the opportunities are posted rather than a coherent market for the code itself. San Mateo County Medical Center appears twice in recent activity (RFP for laser OR equipment posted July 10, 2026, with a due date of July 10, 2026; RFP for surgical power equipment with a May 28, 2026 deadline), but neither solicitation directly addresses surgical retriever sets. The California State outpatient furniture bids (due June 4 and June 9, 2026) and the Sourcewell law enforcement equipment RFP (due June 16, 2026) are similarly misaligned with the code's stated scope. The source provides no evidence of state or local jurisdictions actively procuring surgical retriever sets as a distinct line item in recent weeks.
