UNSPSC 42322204: Soft tissue fixation washers

in this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a soft tissue fixation washer in a surgical procedure in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 902110.

UNSPSC 42322204 Soft tissue fixation washers, a Commodity code, nominally describes orthopedic surgical hardware and fasteners used in soft-tissue repair procedures. Recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not align clearly with that specific product category; instead, the opportunities reflect broader medical-supplies and healthcare-equipment procurement through cooperative-purchasing vehicles and single-agency healthcare systems. State and local governments are sourcing medical supplies, orthopedic extraction systems, healthcare furniture, and related clinical services through master-agreement frameworks designed to achieve volume discounts and standardized contracting across multiple jurisdictions. The issuing bodies include state and county healthcare systems (San Mateo Medical Center, State of California), cooperative-purchasing units (NASPO ValuePoint, Sourcewell), and regional health authorities. These entities solicit through RFP and IFB notice types to establish framework agreements available to their member jurisdictions or constituent agencies.

Recent opportunities span California, Minnesota, South Dakota, and Washington. NASPO ValuePoint's RFP 1433 for Medical Supplies, due November 9, 2026, seeks master-agreement proposals from bidders to serve state and local government entities nationally through cooperative purchasing. Sourcewell's RFP 26RFP102026 for Physical Health Products and Related Services, due October 20, 2026, similarly establishes a contracting vehicle for Sourcewell's Participating Entities across multiple states. San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP for Orthopedic Hardware Removal and Extraction System Services, due July 1, 2026, requiring vendors to demonstrate five years of acute-care hospital support, ISO 13485 certification, and regional technical availability; the contract term is three years with insurance requirements including general liability and cyber liability coverage. The State of California issued RFB-IS-27200016 for outpatient-building furniture supply and delivery, due July 28, 2026, with potential set-asides for certified business enterprises. These opportunities show that the code captures medical supplies and healthcare equipment sourcing but does not consistently align with soft-tissue fixation washers as a discrete product line.
