UNSPSC 42321517: Surgical wire accessories

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is either an accessory or consumable associated with surgical wiring. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 902110.

UNSPSC 42321517 Surgical wire accessories is a Commodity code. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show minimal alignment with the code's nominal scope — the posted solicitations include outpatient building furniture, orthopedic hardware extraction systems, law enforcement equipment, and career technical education resources, none of which directly relate to surgical wire or wire accessories. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or inconsistent application of the taxonomy across jurisdictions. State and local governments soliciting under this code are purchasing a broad range of capital equipment and instructional supplies rather than the surgical consumables the code name indicates.

The geographic activity visible in recent postings spans California (State of California Department of General Services and San Mateo County), Minnesota (Sourcewell on behalf of participating entities in Washington state, Minnesota, and other jurisdictions), and Texas (Klein ISD in Harris County). The issuing bodies include state purchasing offices, county health systems, cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple jurisdictions, and independent school districts. Representative recent opportunities include State of California RFB-IS-27200016 (outpatient building furniture and casework, due July 28, 2026, with set-aside consideration for minority-owned and women-owned businesses), San Mateo Medical Center RFP 666002526252 (orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services on an as-needed basis, due July 1, 2026, with local-business preference available), Sourcewell RFP #061626 (law enforcement equipment for cooperative purchasing across multiple states and public entities, due June 16, 2026), and Klein ISD RFP #26-101 (career technical education and advanced academics instructional resources, due June 5, 2026, with active encouragement of HUB and MWBE vendors). The code shows recent activity but limited relevance to surgical wire procurement at the state and local level.
