UNSPSC 42322600: General orthopedic implants

Implants that can be used in more than one part of the body.

UNSPSC 42322600 General orthopedic implants is a Class code under which state and local governments procure orthopedic hardware removal and extraction systems, surgical instrumentation, and related services for hospital and surgical-center operations. San Mateo Medical Center's July 2026 RFP for orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services represents the clearest match to the code's nominal scope—the procurement targets as-needed delivery of extraction systems, instrumentation, and technical support for safe removal of orthopedic implants, screws, and intramedullary nails compatible with multiple implant manufacturers. The issuing bodies span county public hospital systems and health authorities; San Mateo County's solicitation emphasizes three-year service contracts with specific insurance, compliance, and technical-support requirements tailored to acute-care hospital operations. However, the recent-opportunities block includes three other solicitations—California's July 2026 IFB for outpatient-building furniture, Sourcewell's June 2026 RFP for law enforcement equipment, and Klein ISD's June 2026 RFP for career technical education resources—that show no connection to orthopedic implants or related hardware and suggest the code may be tagged inconsistently across state and local procurement systems.

The geographic spread of genuinely relevant activity is narrow: San Mateo County, California, and the health-systems ecosystem within it. The San Mateo Medical Center solicitation (666002526252, RFP, due July 1, 2026 at 1:00 p.m.) required five years of experience with orthopedic hardware extraction systems, ISO 13485:2016 certification, Northern California service availability, general and products liability insurance of $1,000,000 per occurrence, and $5,000,000 cyber liability coverage; evaluation weighted project approach (30 points), firm qualifications (25 points), team qualifications (20 points), and price (25 points), with a three-year initial contract term. A local-business preference of 5 to 10 percent applied under San Mateo County Ordinance Code Chapter 2.89. The three remaining opportunities in the block represent procurement outside the code's scope and should not inform pursuit decisions under UNSPSC 42322600. State and local activity under the code appears limited to hospital and health-system orthopedic surgery support services in California's Bay Area, with minimal recent volume across other jurisdictions.
