UNSPSC 85901238 Pure tone stenger assessment using audiometer is a Commodity code, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect audiometric testing but instead cluster around sign language interpreting services, special education contracted services, audiology services, and temporary health professional staffing. The code's nominal scope—audiometric assessment—appears misaligned with what is actually being solicited. School districts, state agencies, and purchasing cooperatives in the recent opportunity set are procuring educational interpreting services, specialized clinical staffing (speech language pathology, occupational and physical therapy, audiology, psychology, behavior analysis), and health professional temporary staffing, with interpreting representing the largest share of posted activity.

Recent opportunities span Texas, Florida, and California. Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa issued RFP 26041-DST for sign language interpreting services across 235 schools with an estimated annual budget of $950,000 and an April 15, 2026 response deadline. Katy Independent School District in Texas released RFP 2518YT for sign language interpreting covering six school districts in the West 10 RDSPD/Deaf Education Cooperative, due July 8, 2026. Birdville Independent School District (northeast Tarrant County, Texas) solicited competitive sealed proposals for special education contracted services covering 23 line items including audiology, dyslexia evaluation, and multiple therapy disciplines on October 21, 2026. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued two bid solicitations (HHS0017735 and HHS0017735V2) for comprehensive audiology services at Richmond State Supported Living Center with response dates in August and August 2026. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Kilgore, Texas posted a catalog discount bid (SPE2628) for special education supplies with $2.7 million estimated expenditures over two years. Tacoma Public Schools (Washington) solicited proposals for special education contracted services due July 3, 2026. The County of Santa Clara Health System (California) established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across audiology, radiology, gastroenterology, therapy, and other ancillary clinical categories with an October 7, 2026 deadline. The code shows activity but the opportunities diverge significantly from the nominal audiometric assessment scope.
