UNSPSC 85511153 Supplement gastric artery with synthetic substitute, open approach (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — supplementing a gastric artery with synthetic material via open surgical approach — yet the recent opportunities tagged under this code predominantly solicit health professional staffing, medical evaluation and record services, pharmacy benefit management, and occupational medical surveillance. None of the recent solicitations actually procure the surgical procedure or implantable device that the code nominates. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health systems (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health services (Harris County Juvenile Probation, Collier County), spanning diverse public sectors without a dominant buyer profile.

The geographic spread includes Arizona, California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington State, Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), reflecting broad national coverage without concentration in any single state. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 with a five-year contract maximum of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026 with a two-year base term and options for up to five additional one-year extensions; the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation (RFSQHHSFY270052) for a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026; and Collier County's RFP (258414) for pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual spending of approximately $8.7 million and a three-year initial term effective January 1, 2026. The mismatch between code scope and recent solicitations suggests this code lacks active state and local procurement relevance for the procedure it describes.
