UNSPSC 42321913 Shoulder spacers is a Commodity code. The recent opportunities posted under this code show a significant mismatch between the nominal product category and the work actually being solicited — the code captures orthopedic hardware extraction services, law enforcement equipment cooperative procurement, healthcare facility furniture supply, and career and technical education instructional resources, none of which align with shoulder spacers as a discrete product line. State and local procurement systems have tagged these diverse solicitations under the code, but the actual buying activity does not center on shoulder spacers themselves. The code shows little relevant recent activity for the stated product category.

The issuing bodies posting opportunities tagged to this code span California state agencies, San Mateo County's public health system, Sourcewell on behalf of multiple Washington and national jurisdictions, and Klein Independent School District in Texas. The geographic spread includes California, Washington, Texas, and a multi-state cooperative purchasing vehicle. Representative recent opportunities include the State of California's July 2026 RFB for healthcare facility furniture and delivery (due July 28, 2026), San Mateo Medical Center's June 2026 RFP for orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services (due July 1, 2026), and Sourcewell's June 2026 RFP for law enforcement equipment (due June 16, 2026). None of these procurements target shoulder spacers as a primary scope element, signaling that this Commodity code does not currently reflect active state and local market demand for the product it nominally describes.
