UNSPSC 85901142 Monaural hearing aid assessment using audiovisual equipment is a Commodity code, but the recent opportunities tagged to it show little alignment with the code's nominal scope—the posted solicitations focus instead on sign language interpreting services, special education contracted services spanning multiple therapy disciplines, and a data analytics platform for health plan quality measures, none of which involve hearing aid assessment or audiovisual diagnostic equipment for monaural hearing loss. School districts and public health entities appear to be the primary issuing bodies, with Katy Independent School District (Texas), Tacoma Public Schools (Washington), Eanes Independent School District (Texas), and Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida) all soliciting interpreting and special education services on an as-needed basis with no minimum volume guarantees and multi-year renewal options. However, the mismatch between the code definition and the actual recent work being procured suggests that the code may be misapplied to these opportunities, or that state and local procurement offices are using this classification in ways disconnected from its stated commodity definition.

The recent activity shows concentrations in Texas and Florida school districts, with isolated activity from Tacoma Public Schools in Washington and the Inland Empire Health Plan in California. Hillsborough County Public Schools issued RFP 26041-DST in April 2026 for interpreting services for the deaf or hard-of-hearing across 235 schools with an estimated annual budget of $950,000, requiring interpreters with minimum EIPA level 3.5 or equivalent RID or BEI certification and 24/7 availability with 30-minute response time; Katy ISD issued RFP 2518YT in July 2026 for sign language interpreting services serving multiple districts in the West 10 RDSPD cooperative through August 2031 with renewal options; Eanes ISD issued RFP 26-31-04-201 in March 2026 for special education contracted services across multiple disciplines with an estimated annual spend of approximately $3 million and renewal options through 2031; and Tacoma Public Schools issued RFP26021C in June 2026 for special education contracted services on an as-needed basis. Given the mismatch between code definition and recent solicitations, this code appears to show little relevant recent activity for firms focused on hearing aid assessment or audiovisual diagnostic equipment procurement.
