UNSPSC 85901220 Electrocochleography assessment using electrophysiologic equipment, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—electrocochleography, a specialized electrophysiologic diagnostic test for inner-ear and brainstem function—does not align with the opportunities posted under this code. Recent solicitations tagged with 85901220 are predominantly sign language interpreting services for deaf and hard-of-hearing students, audiology services, and temporary health professional staffing including audiology and related clinical support. These opportunities center on communication access, hearing assessment, and temporary clinical staffing rather than electrocochleographic testing or related diagnostic instrumentation.

The issuing bodies include independent school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa, Florida; Katy Independent School District in Texas; Birdville Independent School District in northeast Tarrant County, Texas; Tacoma Public Schools in Washington), a state health and human services agency (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), a regional purchasing cooperative (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Kilgore, Texas), a county health system (Santa Clara County Health System in California), and regional purchasing consortia (H-GAC in Houston). Geographic activity spans Florida, Texas, Washington, and California. Representative recent opportunities include Hillsborough County Public Schools RFP 26041-DST for sign language interpreting services with a response deadline of April 15, 2026 and an estimated annual budget of $950,000; Birdville Independent School District RFP 01027 for special education contracted services including audiology, diagnostician, and therapy services, with proposals due October 21, 2026 at 2:00 PM Central Time and a cost-price analysis of $398,494.30; Texas Health and Human Services Commission audiology services for Richmond State Supported Living Center, with bids due August 31, 2026 at 10:30 a.m. Central Time; and Katy Independent School District RFP 2518YT for sign language interpreting services with proposals due July 8, 2026. The code appears to be a taxonomic mismatch with the work actually being procured.
