UNSPSC 42322700: Foot and ankle implants

In this classification, this class includes, products, components, accessories, and supplies, utilized in reconstructive foot and ankle orthopedic based surgical procedures.

UNSPSC 42322700 Foot and ankle implants, a Class code, shows limited recent state and local procurement activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. The four recent opportunities posted under this code between April and July 2026 include furniture supply for a California healthcare outpatient building, orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services at a San Mateo County medical center, law enforcement equipment through a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, and career technical education resources through a Texas school district. Only one opportunity—the San Mateo Medical Center's request for orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services—directly engages orthopedic implants and hardware removal. The mismatch suggests the code is being applied inconsistently to healthcare and education procurement outside its core implant-device scope, or that state and local purchasing systems are tagging opportunities with category codes that do not reflect the work being bought.

The San Mateo Medical Center RFP (666002526252), due July 1, 2026, represents the most relevant recent activity under the code. San Mateo County is seeking three-year contracts for universal orthopedic hardware extraction systems compatible with multiple implant manufacturers, with technical support available in Northern California, ISO 13485:2016 certification required, and a local-business preference of 5 to 10 percent available. The solicitation emphasizes capability to support removal of orthopedic implants, screws, intramedullary nails, and related hardware in acute-care hospital settings. No other state or local jurisdiction posting under this code in the recent window targets foot and ankle implants or related medical devices. Geographic activity is concentrated in California and the upper Midwest, though the law enforcement equipment and education solicitations are misaligned with the code's intent and do not represent actionable market signals for implant vendors.
