UNSPSC 85691917 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in sternum, open approach, a Commodity code, shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The six most recent opportunities tagged under or near this code involve independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out program management, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which describe tissue substitutes, sternum revision procedures, or surgical implant procurement. The code's abstract description does not match the kinds of work state and local governments are actually soliciting under this taxonomy entry, signaling either a data-classification mismatch in the source system or limited real-world activity under this specific commodity designation.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunity set span city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county procurement offices (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara). Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. If this code does see genuine procurement activity in state and local markets, it would most likely arise from county or municipal health authorities purchasing surgical supplies or from public university medical centers; the current data does not support active pursuit under this commodity designation.
