UNSPSC 85446701: The diagnosis of failure of sterile precautions during surgical operation

In this classification, this covers the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of failure of sterile precautions during surgical operation. Failure of sterile precautions during surgical operation is listed In The World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10) as a four-character category under code Y62.0.

UNSPSC 85446701, Diagnosis of failure of sterile precautions during surgical operation, is a Commodity code that reflects diagnostic and quality-assurance services in hospital and clinical settings, though the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not directly align with the code's nominal scope of sterile-precaution failure analysis. Instead, the opportunities show activity in diagnostic imaging systems, special education contracted services, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which constitute failure diagnosis or sterile-precaution assessment. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its stated purpose.

Activity under this code appears fragmentary across different issuing bodies and geographies. The tagged opportunities span San Mateo County Medical Center in California (pursuing a diagnostic imaging PACS system via RFP), Birdville Independent School District in northeast Tarrant County, Texas (seeking special education contracted services via competitive sealed proposal due October 21, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System in California (establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing via RFQ due October 7, 2026). None of these solicitations relate to sterilization-failure diagnosis or root-cause analysis of surgical contamination events, which would be the expected focus of the UNSPSC code's nominal definition. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for practical procurement purposes and verify coding accuracy with issuing bodies before investing pursuit resources.
