UNSPSC 42321805: Tibial baseplates or trays

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a tibial baseplates or tray in a surgical procedure in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Tibial baseplates or trays under 21 CFR 888.3520 and under FDA product code HSX. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 902129.

UNSPSC 42321805 Tibial baseplates or trays (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code's technical name reflects a specific orthopedic surgical implant component, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it diverge sharply: the source includes a California state furniture procurement for an outpatient building, a Sourcewell cooperative law enforcement equipment RFP spanning multiple Washington and Minnesota counties, and a Klein Independent School District career and technical education resources solicitation in Texas. Only one opportunity—San Mateo Medical Center's orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services RFP posted July 1, 2026—bears meaningful relation to orthopedic implant work, but it addresses extraction and removal services rather than tibial baseplate supply or installation.

The San Mateo Medical Center RFP does confirm some relevant market activity: the county is soliciting three-year as-needed service contracts for orthopedic hardware removal compatible with multiple implant manufacturers, requiring ISO 13485:2016 certification, five years of acute-care hospital experience, and Northern California technical support. San Mateo County has applied a 5–10 percent local-business preference under County Ordinance Code Chapter 2.89. Beyond this single orthopedic-adjacent opportunity, the code shows no recent state or local solicitations for tibial baseplates, implant supply, or orthopedic component procurement. The mismatch between the code's technical focus and the broader, unrelated public-sector purchasing activity tagged under it suggests either classification error in the source or a code used infrequently for state and local healthcare capital procurement.
