UNSPSC 85901219 Electrocochleography assessment is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it are overwhelmingly misaligned with the code's nominal clinical scope. The most recent solicitations—from Katy Independent School District, Tacoma Public Schools, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Eanes Independent School District, and others—are purchasing sign language interpreting services, speech-language pathology, occupational therapy, physical therapy, educational diagnostician services, and other special education contracted services. These are special education support and interpreting commodities, not electrocochleography (an audiological diagnostic assessment). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated definition; the mismatch between the code label and what districts are actually buying suggests either a tagging error in the procurement system or a significant drift in how this code is being applied at the state and local level.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Katy ISD, Tacoma Public Schools, Eanes ISD, and Hillsborough County Public Schools all actively posting. Katy ISD issued RFP 2518YT for sign language interpreting services with a response date of July 8, 2026, seeking certified or pre-certified interpreters at hourly rates across the West 10 RDSPD/Deaf Education Cooperative. Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa, Florida solicited interpreting services (RFP 26041-DST, due April 15, 2026) with an estimated annual budget of $950,000 and a requirement for EIPA level 3.5 or equivalent RID certification. Tacoma Public Schools and Eanes ISD both solicited special education contracted services on an as-needed basis with multi-year renewals. Recent activity concentrates in Texas (Katy, Eanes, and H-GAC) and Florida (Hillsborough), with Washington state (Tacoma) also active. No minimum volume guarantees are offered in any of these contracts, and districts are using RFP mechanisms with weighted evaluation criteria that emphasize qualifications, certifications, and cost structure.
