UNSPSC 85742813 Occlusion of cul-de-sac, via natural or artificial opening, a Commodity code, shows a severe mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The six most recently posted opportunities tagged under this code cover independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in detention, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which relate to cul-de-sac occlusion or site engineering work. The code appears to have been misapplied across multiple solicitations spanning Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington; no recent opportunities reflective of the code's stated medical or engineering purpose are present in the source material.

The issuing bodies include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System. Given the complete divergence between the code's name and the work actually being solicited, this code does not represent a viable procurement category for business development targeting. Vendors should verify the correct UNSPSC classification with state and local procurement offices before pursuing opportunities tagged under this code.
