UNSPSC 51441562: Technetium tc-99m or 99mtc

This classification denotes a radioisotope with the molecular structure TC, a preparation that US FDA recognizes as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier, 6EW75241VU chemically known as technetium, tc-99m, but more commonly known as technetium tc 99m, which bears U.S. National Institutes of Health Compound Identifier 6328391. The European Medicines Agency schedules Technetium tc 99m in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB15459MIG.

UNSPSC 51441562 Technetium tc-99m or 99mtc is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure medical imaging equipment, X-ray systems, and related maintenance services. Recent solicitations show that jurisdictions are buying radiologic equipment installations, X-ray inspection systems, extended warranties for imaging machines, and maintenance service plans for specialized diagnostic equipment. The issuing bodies include county correction departments, county aviation authorities, county community college systems, and county purchasing offices — a mix of specialized healthcare, security, and educational end users rather than a single consolidated buyer segment. All recent opportunities reflect institutional procurement rather than large-scale clinical operations, suggesting fragmented demand driven by facility-level upgrades and warranty renewals rather than coordinated fleet replacements.

Maricopa County in Arizona, Escambia County in Florida, and Broward County in Florida account for three of the four recent opportunities. Maricopa County Community Colleges posted IFB 362910 on October 1, 2026, soliciting radiologic equipment and installation services at three college locations with a response deadline of October 22, 2026. Escambia County Correction issued sole-source solicitation SSCORALM2526005 in August 2026 for an extended warranty on three X-ray machines, closing August 19, 2026. Broward County Aviation Department posted RFI BLD2132311F1 on June 25, 2026, with responses due July 28, 2026, to explore whether maintenance services for Rapiscan X-ray inspection systems are available from vendors other than the sole-source manufacturer or from comparable alternate systems. A fourth opportunity — Pasco County, Florida's RFQ for copper sulfate crystals and liquid copper sulfate, posted June 3, 2026, with a June 26 close — appears unrelated to the code's stated scope and suggests misclassification in the state and local procurement database.
