UNSPSC 42321713: Acetabular screws

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as an acetabular screw in a surgical procedure in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 902110.

UNSPSC 42321713 Acetabular screws (Commodity) addresses orthopedic surgical hardware, specifically extraction systems and removal services for orthopedic implants during surgical procedures rather than the screws themselves. State and local governments procure these services through health systems and public hospitals to support acute-care surgical programs. The recent solicitation activity shows demand concentrated in two forms: cooperative-purchasing master agreements for medical supplies portfolios that bundle orthopedic hardware with broader commodity categories, and direct procurement of hardware extraction and removal system services by county public hospital systems. Issuing bodies include state cooperative-purchasing vehicles (NASPO ValuePoint administered by South Dakota, Sourcewell administered by Minnesota), county medical centers, and state capital project budgets. The scope of work spans acquisition of extraction instrumentation compatible with multiple implant manufacturers, technical support and case assistance for safe hardware removal, and warranty and liability coverage tied to healthcare compliance standards including ISO 13485:2016 certification and HIPAA security requirements.

Recent activity appears concentrated in California and the Upper Midwest. The State of California issued RFB-IS-27200016 for outpatient building furniture (closed July 28, 2026) that may have bundled orthopedic-compatible fixtures; San Mateo Medical Center issued RFP 666002526252 for orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services due July 1, 2026, requiring five years of experience, universal extraction capability, Northern California technical support availability, and a three-year contract term with mandatory $1 million general and products liability and $5 million cyber liability insurance. NASPO ValuePoint posted RFP 1433 for medical supplies master agreements due November 9, 2026, establishing collective purchasing across multiple states through a cooperative vehicle. Sourcewell issued RFP 26RFP102026 for physical health products and related services due October 20, 2026, serving Minnesota and participating entities nationwide. The code shows modest but consistent procurement activity concentrated in cooperative purchasing frameworks and direct acquisitions by public health systems in California and the Upper Midwest.
